Over a month later, Konomi goes back to the Anti-Monkey Rock with the rest of her club to show off the results of her daily training. Finally conquering her fear, she solves the problem. Konomi then begs Kikuko to come cheer her at the Kanto Bouldering Championship until she relents. Back in town, the Hanamiya girls visit a climbing goods store where the proprietor, Asuka Fujimura, measures Konomi for climbing shoes. Afterwards, the Hanamiya girls reunite at the Kanto Bouldering Championship, where they meet their rivals from other schools and a girl from Konomi's past named Kurea Ōba, who sees her as a rival from their ballet class.
