Mizusaki recalling the lessons she learned in her days as a child actress may provide one key to moving forward—but what about a creative challange they haven’t tackled seriously yet, voice acting?

But they just can’t give their creativity a rest, and roaming the mountain resort, Asakusa meets a pack of friendly but mysterious racoon dogs who inspire a plan for her grandest science fiction epic yet—Tanuki Eldorado! Meanwhile, Kanamori is meeting behind the scenes with the one person at Shibahama High who’s as sharp an operator as herself—student council secretary Sowande Sakaki. Is she Eizouken’s rival, their protector, or something else again…?
