The Starlight Queen Cup is moved up to Spring, with the entire middle school section eligible to participate. As the girls are asked by Otome to help her move out of her current dorm, which is reserved for the next Starlight Queen, Sakura, who had previously lost against Otome, keep her distance, feeling she doesn't yet have the right to enter the dorm just yet. While training hard, Sakura receives some encouragement from Otome to bloom like a flower. On the day of the Cup, Akari and the others are eliminated in the first round while Sakura goes on to become the Starlight Queen, after which everyone throws a celebratory party for her.
