After Mai granted Yuu’s wish of resetting the status quo after Mai handing over the Kumai account was a trainwreck, at least the girls are back to where they started. Now, the shop is brimming with customers, with them performing for a girl who messed up her bangs and wants them to grow back.
In short, the girls finally broke the 1000 magic point goal. The girls have some setbacks, but it’s nice to see them finally getting the hang of things. It’s funny how Kurope is now a bit plump, as he doesn’t have to help the girls as much. Of course, the place is getting hot, and I wonder if using magic points to get air conditioning is worth it. After all, they went for it since it would improve working conditions.

The primary focus of this episode is, of course, preparing for Choco’s 16th birthday. We see Mai, Yuina, Azu, and Kyouka discussing their plans to throw a birthday party. Interestingly, we finally know a pump, and Azu is trying to massage her legs.
That said, Kyouka mentions her favorite VTuber, Moutan, to Yuina. She donates to it once in a while. What does that have to do with her problems? As we see after the call, when Kyouka’s mother gives her a present, it’s evident that her parents are controlling.

Her mother wants Kyouka to grow her hair and attend the university they pick. Her father wants her to go to dinner with the dress he picked out. As a result, Kyouka feels that she has no control over her life. That is why she wants to enter adulthood to chart out her part of doing her own thing and helping people. I can understand why they want their daughter to follow a particular path, but being too strict and not allowing her to make some decisions will eventually strain their relationship.
That said, Kyouka spoiled the birthday party they were planning for Choco. At least the birthday party was nice with the birthday song Yuina made. That said, a customer came in, which is a grandmother. Choco becomes annoyed and calls the grandmother an old bag. It’s the opposite of her cheerful and outgoing personality. I guess we’ll find out the full story next time.
