Still unable to get permission to perform in Opening Ceremony and now facing the prospect that they will be excluded from the Ayanagi Festival all together, Hoshitani and the others try to at least get their class performance time slot back. However, through their exchanges with Irinatsu and Kasugano, positive feelings for wanting to be acknowledged by the Kao Council have begun to emerge in the group. Though others, such as Nanjo, voice their doubts and a past relationship between him and Fuyusawa lead the others to wonder where Nanjo's loyalties really lie.
That's the kind of teammates 
we've been all along.
Solche Teammitglieder sind wir.
Wir mischen uns nicht ein.
Siempre fuimos compañeros así.
Siempre fuimos este tipo de compañeros.
J’ai toujours été
ce genre d’équipier.
Abbiamo sempre fatto così,
da quando siamo compagni di team.
Esses são os tipos de colegas
que somos desde o início.
