Mashiro and Takagi conclude that PCP cannot defeat CROW and +Natural at their current pace. To improve their ranking for week 25, Takagi designs a five-week-long arc, a risky strategy that lowers ratings until the finale. The team agrees to challenge Eiji to continue PCP's existence. Although the arc is nearly complete, Takagi feels the narrative lacks depth. After interacting with Aiko, he realizes the story requires a rival character to drive PCP forward, mirroring how Fukuda and others motivate them. This addition aims to strengthen the plot's momentum and ensure the group's survival through the upcoming confrontation.
