Thanks to 21 points from the Pole Michał Kubiak, the Panthers outplayed JT Thunders by a 3-1 (25-15, 23-25, 25-18, 25-21). Kenji Shirasawa contributed with 6 kill blocks.
JTEKT Stings (5-4) prevailed in a five-set thriller versus Osaka Sakai Blazers with 31 points from the Bulgarian Matey Kaziyski.
Suntory Sunbirds (4-5) had an easy job with F.C. Tokyo, 3-0, thanks to 18 points (3 aces) from the Cuban Yadrian Escobar.
