Ep. 8: Riri and Komichi compete for the swimming anchor spot at the school festival.

8

With midterm exams concluded, students react differently as the school prepares for its upcoming athletic festival. The selection process for event participants begins, leading to a conflict over the swimming anchor position. Riri is initially chosen for the role, but Erika nominates Komichi instead, forcing the two girls to compete against each other. Riri boasts a strong background, having joined the swimming club and reached nationals in elementary school. In contrast, Komichi lacks the desire to view Riri as a rival. To resolve the dispute, Riri proposes a high-stakes wager: if she wins the race, the two must swap their uniforms. This unusual condition sets the stage for their intense competition to determine who will represent their team in the water.
