The stands are set up about the piste, allowing people to watch any of the duels they choose. Prince Daisetsu and Shahai sit towards the top of the stands here. Shahai is given shad by a parasol, held by Daisetsu. They sit very close to each other, their fans raised as they speak privately.

The rest of the Imperial Host is in a position where they could watch any of the duels from any vantage point.

Jiro observed the match between the Lion and Imperial, watching quietly and without any real outward sign of support for either.

Sakura sat and watched as well, gaze ticking back and forth, though a viewer would see a small smile when she looked to Urusai.
