Before she can express her true feelings, he releases a large balloon over a campfire, sending numerous heart-shaped balloons into the sky. Miyuki avoids confessing first and instead asks Kaguya to apply to Stanford University with him. She agrees to his proposal. As a reward for helping find the phantom thief, Kaguya kisses Miyuki. This segment serves as the second part of the season finale hour-long special, designated as Episode 13. The narrative focuses on the characters' interactions regarding their future plans and the resolution of the phantom thief subplot without either party explicitly stating romantic love.
