Ep. 9: Poppin'Party performs while RAISE A SUILEN faces internal conflict over voting strategies

9

Hoping to gain more votes, Poppin'Party plan a three-week schedule of live performances. In addition to Galaxy, they play at CiRCLE and dub alongside Roselia and RAISE A SUILEN respectively. Despite having fewer votes than both bands, they enjoy their newly-gained momentum as they reach sixth in the polls. Although RAISE A SUILEN offer their support to Poppin'Party, including baking a cake for Tae's birthday, they fall behind Roselia in the voting. In response, CHU² calls an impromptu meeting in which she announces that RAISE A SUILEN will play in other venues to force other bands to withdraw. She also takes control of everyone's schedules and commands the band members to follow her orders and to not socialize with the other bands. After an argument where CHU² questions everyone's commitment to the band, an incensed MASKING walks away. PAREO attempts to console CHU² but is harshly criticized as being useless.
