Episode Title:
Hostesses Are Culture! Comics Are Culture! Cake is Also Culture!.
Episode Description:
The Yagami High Festival begins. Meanwhile, Harima is nervously waiting for news from the manga editor contest in which he entered. Going to an exhibit labeled "Tokiha Boarding House", he meets with Yakumo, cosplaying as Osamu Tezuka, who encourages him to keep drawing for whatever drives him forward. Later at the class, he catches wind of Karasuma's birthday and, distressed, tries to stop Tenma from unveiling the cake, by pretending to trip. As it turns out, the cake he spilled this time was for Yoshidayama (who had won a "sumo bathing suit contest" previously), and Tenma promptly offers him his cake. Then, as she fetches the cake for Karasuma... she finds it, too, now reads "Harima" (this was the cake Harima tripped on earlier). To solve the problem, she cuts out the cake in a crescent shape, so that only the "MA" remains, and eats up the rest. Later as she sulks, Karasuma comes along and, noticing Tenma has a photo of him with a faint smile, he thanks her for the day.
