Episode 24: Phone Call and Night Before

Koogy’s entry fares badly in the Golden Future Cup, putting Mashiro and Takagi, Fukuda, and Nakai and Aoki ahead of him. The results produce a rare split decision: Fukuda and Ashirogi Muto share the top position. Azuki phones Takagi to express gratitude for standing behind Mashiro and pushing him toward a career as a manga artist, yet she cannot bring herself to offer Mashiro congratulations in person. After their victory, Mashiro and Takagi get ready to present their story for serialization.
