With Shiki's persuasion, the Kao Council decides to expand the number of performers for Opening Ceremony. Once again back to a 14-person company, Hoshitani and the others devote themselves to practice. Meanwhile, a slight rift is beginning to form between Shiki, who agreed to the second-years' request, and Fuyusawa, who is determined to avoid any risk of failure. The difference between their goals, ideals, and feelings becomes increasingly clear.
Shadows are born from the shining light
Aus dem glänzenden Licht
werden Schatten erst geboren.
Las sombras nacen de la luz brillante.
Las sombras nacen de la luz brillante.
L’ombre naît avec la lumière
Le ombre nascono dalla luce che splende
As sombras nascem do brilho da luz
