Raichi and Noelle's classmate, Asahi Azuma, who is a big fan of Akari, learns that she'll be appearing in her first handshake event alongside Sumire. Meanwhile, Aoi invites Akari and Sumire to watch her appearance on a variety show to observe how she interacts with her fans. Aoi asks them to think about things from the fan's perspective, with Akari looking back on her own fondness towards Ichigo. On the day of Akari and Sumire's event, Asahi catches a cold and is unable to attend, so Raichi sends Noelle to let Akari speak to him over the phone before helping him set up a virtual avatar for her performance.
