Episode Title:
Ready to Start Resolving the Subplots.
Episode Description:
Tomoya introduces Michiru to the girls, stating that he wants Michiru to do the background music for the game. Michiru, however, voices her dislike of anything otaku-related. Utaha and Michiru argue over the difference in their views, while Eriri is traumatized because her childhood friend status has been overshadowed by Michiru, who has known Tomoya her whole life. Tomoya continues to persuade Michiru, but Michiru instead wants to focus on her band and find a manager for her band in order to win her father's approval. Michiru wants Tomoya to be her band manager, using it as an excuse to make him quit his otaku lifestyle, as well as stating that the other girls are not as passionate in game-making as he is. Meanwhile, Megumi helps Eriri and Utaha to work on the game because they are one week behind schedule. Megumi later shows Tomoya the changes she made, and also, in revenge for his overreaction to her relationship with her cousin Keiichi, teases Tomoya's close relationship with Michiru. They both agree on the effect Michiru's music brings to the game. Tomoya agrees to be Michiru's band manager, setting up a first live show for the band in the process.
