Aoi decides to tackle the Hanno Alps, inevitably finding the experience pretty tough by herself. She is soon joined by Kokona, who accompanies her to Nenogongen to look at the shrines.

With Aoi busy at her part-time job, Hinata goes on an outing by herself, finding herself lonely without Aoi. During closing time, Aoi manages to use what she learned throughout today to help Kokona's mother buy a cake for her daughter.

Aoi buys Hinata a gift, but Hinata’s mind seems to be elsewhere. Meanwhile, Kaede makes plans for the gang to climb Mt. Kinpu on an overnight trip.

Hinata hurts her foot, and Aoi decides to stay behind with her while Kokona and Kaede finish the trip to the top of Mt. Kinpu.
