Chapter 51, titled All-Japan Junior Women's FS (Part 1) (全日本ジュニア女子FS(前編 Zennihon Junia Joshi FS (Zenpen)), is the third chapter in Volume 13.

Synopsis

Inori, Tsukasa, and Miku sees Kakeru off after he helps Inori lands her first quadruple salchow, but it leaves Tsukasa wondering how to package the quad into her routine.

Tsukasa reunites with his former club mate Kohei Kamogawa. The two coaches find that Miku and Inori had become fast friends, with Miku helping Inori with her homework. A man in a goose costume appears and attempts to gobble up Tsukasa before revealing himself to be Juna Shiratori, TV celebrity and another of Tsukasa's former club mates.

In conversation, Miku confesses to Inori that she'll be quitting skating after the All Japan Novice's due to her home rink shutting down.

The three coaches discuss strategies on evaluating the suitability of a jump to be included in a routine. This strengthens Tsukasa's determination to include the quad in Inori's routine.

Back at Nagoya, Inori successfully lands a quad at their home rink and in the public's eye for the first time, quickly attracting attention. Word spreads to Jun Yodaka, who has already predicted that she will do that as her only option of beating Hikaru.

One week later, Hikaru meets Inori at the All Japan Novice's.
