During the school cultural festival, Sakura attempts to establish her own cosplay café while Miharu and Nemu spend time together. Suginami persuades Jun'ichi to convince Kotori to participate in the festival's beauty pageant. Jun'ichi simultaneously agrees to attend Kotori's recital and meet Nemu. Sensing his internal conflict, Kotori falsely claims her recital is canceled so he can prioritize his time with Nemu. Kotori ultimately wins the pageant. Later, Jun'ichi secretly listens to Kotori sing, unaware of her earlier deception regarding the event's cancellation.
