Chapter 23

The Ticket Contest (チケット争奪戦) is chapter 23 of Grand Blue manga.

Summary
The chapter starts with Iori and Kohei crying in front of Chisa, begging her to give them the ticket. In the next period, the boy's friends show up too, they beg too. By lunch break, all of the boys in the department all down on their knees and begging for the ticket. Chisa is beyond surprised. After Iori locks the other "contestants" out of the room, him and the boys begin competing for the ticket. All but Kenta Fujiwara fail, but Kohei takes him out with chloroform. Chisa then says that it is a shame such good friends are fighting, so the boys declare they are no longer friends. In the end, Rie Oohashi gives them her ticket and the issue is resolved.
