Ep. 18: Chi-chan listens to radio and discovers DJ Joutarou's sweet words are scripted by writer Yume.

Yuzuki tunes into a late-night radio program frequently featuring letters from a sender named Chi-chan, whose real name is Chiriko. Infatuated with host Joutarou, she befriends another regular correspondent, Kaname. The pair visit the station to thank Joutarou and meet scriptwriter Yume. Kaname expresses her desire to become a writer, prompting Yume to share a broadcast script. This revelation shatters Chi-chan’s illusion that Joutarou’s affectionate remarks were genuine, as they were merely written lines. Enraged by the loss of her fantasy, Chi-chan sends Kaname to Hell. She subsequently retreats back into her delusion, refusing to accept the reality that the host’s words are fabricated.
