Encouragement of Climb

Season 1

Episode 4: Showdown! Mountain Cooking!

Hinata suggests they have a cooking competition using climber's equipment after enjoying Aoi's previous sandwiches. Aoi later finds herself at the supermarket happily shopping for ingredients and eventually prepares paella which Hinata praises. This causes Aoi to wonder if Hinata is genuinely nice or if she herself is just over-thinking things. Hinata then presents her own dish which Aoi likes. However her father reveals that Hinata can't actually cook and cheated using freeze dried food. Afterwards the three of them have dinner and Aoi realizes that Hinata really cares for those around her.
