Third Watch

When the third years retire from the club, Kirihara has to deal with taking over. Drama, I-3

It was an obvious truth that few, if any, of them could become what Yukimura or Sanada or Yanagi was. Akaya nodded, and raised his voice. "It doesn't matter. What we are is Rikkai. We will win."

Yeah...it's really confusing...but I think this time I could get it (I hope). At least you explained pretty well, so...

I just have one doubt. When Kawamura says in PoT that he will no longer play, he's talking about all High School years? I mean he will really stop play tennis (not just for studies like all other 3rd year Regulars?)?

The deal with Kawamura is that he never intended to play tennis in High School. After junior high, he plans to start his sushi-making training so he can work with his dad. So, as soon as he retires from the team, that's it, that's the end. And, from what he says, it sounds like as soon as a team is eliminated from the tournaments and can't advance any further, the third years are expected to retire right then. This is Kawamura's last chance to play competitively, and he wants it to last as long as possible.
