- Current Kenshuusei begin the first day of rehearsals for the recital. Everyone is tense because they can't wait to meet the new Kenshuusei. Matsubara Yulia and Yoshida Hinoha are absent that day.

- The new Kenshuusei Shimoitani Yukiho and Kamimura Rena enter the studio and greet everyone. They introduce themselves.
- The other Kenshuusei introduce themselves to them as well. Then they ask the two of them questions. Shimoitani Yukiho's admired senior is BEYOOOOONDS Shimakura Rika, and Kamimura Rena's admired senior is ANGERME Ise Layla.


- Shimoitani's favorite colors are pink, and yellow. Kamimura's favorite color is also yellow. Uemura Hasumi curiously asks "Do you like to milk?" Shimoitani says she does, but Kamimura doesn't like it and Uemura falls.
- Then they are asked about their impressions of their seniors. Shimoitani says they are all cute, and can't believe she is there with them, since she sees them on TV all the time. She is really happy.
- They begin rehearsing the song "Zettai Idol Sengen" and Shimoitani and Kamimura, both with dance experience, are managing to keep up with their seniors. They got the dance moves, but they are still unsure of some the formation positions.
- After rehearsal, Shimoitani says it wasn't easy. She has to get used to Mitsubachi sensei calling her of where to stand, but she still smiles and chuckles about it. Kamimura says she it was difficult. She has a stoic expression when she answers.

- Next, Shimoitani and Kamimura have more dance rehearsals, this time in a small group with the previously new Kenshuusei Kawashima Mifu and Goto Hana. They four of them practice the song "Itsumo to Onnaji Seifuku de". They go over their parts and positions for the song. They practice the song with playback. They did a very good job together.
- After, Kawashima Mifu and Goto Hana express how they felt being the seniors members now to the new Kenshuusei.

- Hello Dream shows off the recording video of Sato Masaki x Miyamoto Karin (Jurin) "Hotaru Matsuri no Hi"

- Digest footage of OCHA NORMA performing at the idol event called "Dragon Queens Festival" in Shiga prefecture. The typhoon delayed their arrival at the venue, but they managed to make it on time and on stage safely. Kubota Nanami and Tsutsui Roko were absent, so they performed with 8 members.

- OCHA NORMA still has many more idol events coming up.

Next week, more of the Kenshuusei recital rehearsals. Shimoitani and Kamimura are participating in more songs.
