To lower Angel's ranking, Yuri orchestrates a plan where SSS members create classroom distractions. Takeyama swaps Kanade's test papers with fakes, causing her to lose the council presidency to vice president Ayato Naoi. Otonashi meets Kanade and discovers her real name during this operation. Later, during Operation Tornado, Kanade remains calm and purchases a meal ticket for mapo doufu. The ticket is blown away by the chaos and caught by Otonashi. As he eats her favorite dish, he feels sympathy for her. Immediately after, Naoi arrives with NPCs to punish the SSS for their persistent disobedience and rule-breaking behavior throughout the school.
