After having a bad day, Tsuzuri does a curfew run at an arcade where she meets a boy named Konoue, one of Kazari and Ruiko's classmates. As her Anti-Skill duties get worse, Tsuzuri gets depressed which prompts Yomikawa to give her a day off to finish her teachers work. As she heads home, she encounters Konoue at the Arcade and teaches him how to get a secret character in her favourite beat 'em up game, "Gekisho 9", before being called to help a drunken Yomikawa. While carrying Yomikawa home with Komoe, Komoe gives a speech to Tsuzuri about the joys of being a teacher helping their students which inspires Tsuzuri to do better the next day. As she deals with a nun, a miko, and helps a young girl find her pendant, she heads to the arcade, where she ends up playing against Konoue on Gekisho 9, both using the secret character. Walking home with him, the two talk about another Gekisho sequel, and before they part ways, he thanks her. Sometime afterward, Tsuzuri learns that Konoue has transferred to a games design school, sponsored by the game's creators, which makes her happy to know she inspired him and resolves to do better herself.
