Matching Charms and a Falling-Out
Episode Description:
The Broadcasting Club arrives at the practice session, and the group splits to attend their respective specialties. While practicing her recitation with Mizuki, Ryōko, and Hakoyama, Hana befriends students Xiang Ling and Misaki Kumori. Misaki decides to accompany Hana as they join Natsue during lunch break, where Hana realizes that Misaki was Natsue's childhood friend. As Misaki reminisces to Hana on spending middle school with Natsue and recites a passage she had given her, Natsue bluntly criticizes Misaki's failure to improve her recitation before leaving, shaking Misaki's composure. Natsue returns upon being reminded of her former bond with Misaki, as the latter requests her to listen to the passage at her current level. Misaki admits she leaned on Natsue for guidance in their middle school competition, despite Natsue's insistence that she reached it by her own skills. Misaki promises she will improve to reach Natsue's level, delighting the latter.
