Ep. 7: Kongming strategizes for 100,000 likes while Eiko meets idol Nanami Kuon.
Kabetaijin joins the team as Kongming outlines the 100,000 Likes Project strategy, targeting the girl band Azalea, led by Nanami Kuon and backed by Key Time. To counter Key Time's advertising power, Kongming schedules their post for three days before the deadline. He directs Kabetaijin to resolve a rematch with Sekitoba and has Eiko record her original song with DJ Steve "Kid" Kido. Kid asks Eiko to perform "I'm Still Alive Today" by Maria Diesel, praising her skill but urging her to find her own voice. Eiko uses a permit from Kongming to perform, where she meets Nanami, who is singing the same song without a permit. To protect Nanami from police, Eiko joins her as a duo, playing guitar. They plan to meet again, with Nanami requesting Eiko sing as well. Meanwhile, Kongming receives the "sworn friends" sign from his fortune telling.
