In this section, there are some interesting episodes; there was conflict of opinion with Motomasa over a Noh program "Sumidagawa River", and when Zeami was playing opposite to Enami of Settsu Sarugaku, he outwitted Enami by deliberately stopping the performing, and the like.
またこの条では、「隅田川(能)」を巡り元雅との間に意見の対立があったことや、また世阿弥が義満の御前で摂津猿楽の榎並と競演したとき、わざと舞を止めて榎並を出し抜いた話など、興味深い挿話が記されている。
