When they enter PriPara, they are surrounded by thousands of fans, who all want autographs. When Kuma spots the girls he leads them away, just for them to meet up with Shion, Dorothy and Leona, who are upset about their own unit being disbanded. They recall what happened previously, with Dorothy angry and the rest of the group confused.

It's then they spot Meganii on a trolley, heading off to a new part of PriPara. The girls decide to board it, along with some other idols and they say goodbye to their Mascot Managers. Meganii introduces the theater and announces the Idol Dream Grand Prix, a new event involving the PriPara parade.

Later, Laala, Sophie and Mirei go to PriPara, where they once again trade friends tickets and try to register as a unit again, but are denied due to disbandment. They meet up with Shion, Leona and Dorothy, who also performed a friends ticket ceremony by the same fountain.

At the bar, Kuma and Usagi are still shocked by the fact that by the time they get their individual units back up again, they will be in the mascot graveyard, causing them to panic. Neko charges them for the fortune and drink before she leaves to report her findings to Aroma. With that, Aroma prepares to set her plans into action, recruiting Mikan to join her in destroying SoLaMi Smile and Dressing Pafe one by one.

Kuma and Usagi report back to the girls and inform them they must form duos, and in order to do that, they have to team up. Neither group is sure about this, but there's a 100,000 in 1 percent chance they will and Dorothy calms things down.

Shocked by the performance she witnessed, Laala is almost tempted to accept an apple Aroma offers to her, claiming it could make all of her wishes come true. Mirei stops her at the last second though, and Aroma challenges ber to a battle- a challenge to see who can rank higher.

The next day at school, Mirei ranks up as the top disciplinarian of Paprika Private.

At PriPara, Mirei notices a large crowd of fans surrounding Aroma and Mikan, with Mikan quickly noticing the girls arriving. She spots the presents they have also gotten each other, and Laala requests making a special unit ribbon as a sign of friendship to Meganee.

As Mirei practices for a solo live, she goes to check on the present that Laala gave her, when suddenly, a smoke bomb goes off. Aroma switches the present around without her looking and runs off as Mirei goes to check on it. To her alarm she witnesses the present move around on its own; in fact, several more appear.

The following day Mirei starts to worry she isn't good enough for a solo live, when Laala and Sophie enter the dressing room to check on her. Shortly after Mirei flees the room, but Sophie finds her and points out that something is wrong- mainly the way she did her catchphrase.

At the solo live, Mirei greets her fans, but feels like she's out of sorts and runs out to find the present. Laala decides to look for her, with Sophie wanting to help- but falling asleep. Shion, Dorothy, and Leona lend them a hand as well, but it is Laala who locates her. To their shock they see the present about to be run over by a giant truck and Aroma reveals she swapped the presents, taking the ribbon to put a frog in its place. The girls get the ribbon to safety and quickly leave, allowing Mirei to change and perform on stage. She performs a Making Drama and Cyalume Change using her Cyalume Charm.

Mr. Hojo then announces to his beloved daughter and her friends that he has arranged plum plantations abroad and wants her to come with him. Sophie doesn't know what to do, as she would like to stay in Japan with her friends, but she would love to be with her Father.

Later, Aroma and Mikan sing "Reversible Ring" and perform a new Making Drama together. At the PriPara Cafe, Aroma casts a spell on the depressed Sophie, and begins to hypnotize her about what will happen if she moves. Her friends will forget all about her- and this causes her to become even more depressed. Laala and Mirei come to see her, seeing the worrying Sophie, she discusses her problem with her friends, and Laala responds that they'll always be friends no matter what. Sophie then reveals what Aroma told her and the two hug her, claiming that no matter where they are, that they'll always be together as friends.

At the bar, Kuma reports his sightings to Neko, but finds Usagi there at the same time.

Back at the Hojo apartment, Sophie tells her father her decision, she wants to go abroad with him. She makes the same announcement in PriPara, saying that she will have one more live show before leaving- shocking everyone.

5 (196)- "Doriimu Shiataa Ichiban Nori! Kuma!" ("The Dream Theater Number 1! ~kuma!")
(ドリームシアター一番乗り！クマ！)

Airdate: May 2, 2015

Meganii makes a huge announcement to reveal the opening of the Dream Theater. He asks if everyone has prepared their five member teams yet, then to tempt them into hurry- he suggests that the team to win the upcoming sports festival will put on a performance. Everyone is encouraged, but both the unformed SoLaMi Smile and Dressing Pafe point out that even if they won they would be unable to perform together. Everyone agrees its the Manager faults, but Shion insists they do it, having a plan that will help them.

Inside the training building, both Idol teams reveal their desires to their Managers; both of whom attempt to fight their wishes and try to convince them not to do it. But to no avail. The group leaves them both in the dust before realizing they're both stuck. Although they are pretty sure neither team will stand a chance; only to berate themselves later for their mean-spirited thoughts.

The following day the sports festival starts. Three Meganee announce that the participants should gather in line while Aroma checks through her book and Mikan does some somersaults. The idols watch a live segment hosted by Meganee and Meganii and they announce the first segment being an obstacle course. Only one member can compete from each team, but while Dorothy and Shion argue, Mirei and Laala choose Laala- although Sophie offered. When it starts, Dorothy is quick to force Shion in a net so that she can take part in the race, and as this goes on, a few idols are taken out early on.

Meanwhile, Aroma gives Mikan some "words of luck" from the starting line and in no time, Mikan is able to launch herself high into the air, above Laala as she gets onto one of the obstacles. Everyone is amazed and they watch as Mikan displays her nimble body passing by Dorothy. Meganee comments on this, saying that despite her late start she had no problem surpassing everyone else.

Next they have a noodle eating contest, where each Idol must eat several bowls of food before she can move on. Laala skipped breakfast and has no problem, nor does Chanko or Mikan, but Dorothy gets picky and takes a long time to eat. Mikan quickly runs off to the finish line with Aroma claiming nobody could beat her. Laala compliments Mikan for doing so well, then next they move onto the second competition: Limbo. The top four teams will be the ones to partake in it, these being SoLaMi Smile, Dressing Pafe, Aromageddon, and Chanko and Sadako.

Shion decides to go first, having tied Dorothy to a tree, and she easily manages to go beneath the limbo bar. Next Mikan goes, and with ease she jumps over it like a high jump, and they point out she's disqualified for the mistake. Chanko goes next, but bumps the pole and knocks it loose. Sophie is also able to clear the pole with her own "jellyfish" reflexes. With that the points are revealed, with Aromageddon and SoLaMi Smile in the lead, following by Dressing Pafe. Sadako and Chanko are disqualified and they move onto the last portion, a four or six-legged race up PriPara Mountain. Not only is this a test of stamina and strength, but friendship. The team who wins it will gain 10,000 points.

With that it begins, and right away SoLaMi Smile trip. With ease Dressing Pafe is able to keep a steady pace, while Mikan is forced to drag Aroma, who is already worn out. The girls check on Laala to see if she is okay and they try to calm her down so that she can focus and they get to work trying to catch up. They go down again until Mirei suggests they don't follow Sophie's rhythm. As they continue Neko attempts to find a way to sabotage the other teams. She quickly approaches Kuma and flirts with him to convince him to lend her a hand to stop SoLaMi Smile. In this time Sophie goes down, having reached her limit and right away he feels badly for his team, watching the girls as they try to convince her to keep going with them. The trio walk right past Kuma and continue to walk.

Aroma is too tired to continue, causing Mikan to trip and SoLaMi Smile take advantage of this to pass them. They see that Dressing Pafe is very close to the winning spot, but Laala continues to push herself, no matter what. Suddenly, Sophie gains a burst of energy and refuses to give up, helping them to walk. They pass by Aroma and Mikan, who wishes them luck. Usagi also tries to prevent Dressing Pafe from finishing- but when they send him away, they get distracted and trip. They quickly get back up and resume walking, with SoLaMi Smile still far behind them. Kuma tries to convince them to stop but they ignore him, deeply touching him to see how determined they are. Kuma realizes that a silly curse isn't worth it and he quickly tells the girls that he will form an official team for them again, giving them the encouragement to suddenly gain some momentum and win the race after Dorothy and Shion get into another disagreement.

SoLaMi Smile quickly form their promise and they are announced as the winners before they head into the Dream Theater. Meganee tells them the concerts remain the same, and the girls scan their PriTickets and change into their desired coords. They perform for everyone as Kuma and Usagi realize the error of their ways earlier and decide to support their Units entirely.

After leaving the stage, Meganee informs the girls to find their last two members. As this is going on, Aroma focuses her attention on not only Shion, but Dorothy, deciding SoLaMi Smile isn't worth the focus now that they reformed.

6 (197)- "Igo, Saraba Usa!?" ("Go, Farewell-usa!?")
(イゴ、さらばウサ！？)

Airdate: May 9, 2015

Shion, Dorothy and Leona are in the PriPara Cafe talking about SoLaMi Smile's reformation and how they're being left behind. During the discussion, Shion and Dorothy started fighting but Leona calmed them down while Aromageddon watches them. Aroma thinks of a plan to bring Dorothy and Shion to Aromageddon while Mikan gets hungry, so Aroma gave her some food and continues watching them.

Shion wants Iroha to join their Dream Team but she refuses because they're rivals and won't team up with her until she defeats Shion. After playing Go with Iroha, Mikan comes to the scene and asked Shion to join Aromageddon but Shion refuses and told her that she will reform Dressing Pafé. Mikan told her that Dorothy already agreed to join them which left Shion thinking that Dorothy abandoned them. Dorothy is with the MNew sisters and asked if they both can join their Dream Team but they refuse to team up with them. Dorothy then saw Aroma and Aroma asked to join her team but Dorothy refuses and asks her to join her team instead but Aroma doesn't want to team up with Leona and made a bad compliment about him. Dorothy got mad at her and at the same time Aroma disappears but before she did, she told her that Shion joined her team, leaving Dorothy clueless.

Leona was also looking for members but forgot to ask the two girls who asked for his autograph to join his team. He saw Dorothy in Nin'Nin Among the Forest Coord and asked what she is up to and he also saw Shion wearing a samurai-like coord. Shion and Dorothy started fighting which makes Leona surprise but the fight stopped when Dorothy ran away.

Meanwhile, SoLaMi Smile are practicing and while Kuma compliments their hard work, Usagi was watching them and felt left behind but remembers the curse that Neko told him and Kuma. When Usagi arrived at Neko's Cafe, he saw the crystal ball that Neko used and saw a picture of him and Kuma thinking that curse was real until a strong wind came which removed the picture from the ball. Usagi saw this and was surprised that he was fooled by Neko. Kuma came to the scene and explained it furthur more and the two decided to tell Neko of but when she made a fake cry, the two started to warm up with her and later fight for her, which made Neko smile. After he found out that there is no curse at all, he came to see Dorothy, Shion and Leona and told them that they can reform but Dorothy and Shion refuses. Usagi was surprised and asked Leona about it but not even himself can handle the situation.

Usagi then turned to SoLaMi Smile and asked for their help to reform Dressing Pafé. The three girls went to Shion, Dorothy and Leona respectively and found out that it was all a misunderstanding but the two never listened to them. At PriPara, Laala tried to get their attention by imitating some animals but it didn't work. When Sophie mentioned about Leona the two started to get worried but never showed their true feelings. So Laala decides to go find Leona and when she found him, he was practicing but accidentally sprained his ankle.

Laala messaged Dorothy and Shion that Leona is going to do a solo performance so Dorothy and Shion quickly raced to Leona before he performs with a sprained ankle. Dorothy and Shion tried to stop him but he refuses to since he promises his fans that he will perform. As they stop him, both Shion and Dorothy realized their mistakes and when Leona was about to fall, his sister and Shion saved him. They told him that they wanted to help him which made Leona happy. SoLaMi Smile watched them with happiness as the two made their ceremony and watched their performance. After the performance and when Dressing Pafé got their Cyalume Charms, Laala notice Aromageddon and thought they're weird.

When SoLaMi Smile went outside of PriPara, they're followed by Aroma and Mikan and were revealed to be elementary students in Paprika Private Academy which surprises Laala.

7 (198)- "Tonari no Kurasu no Akuma nano" ("The Devil from the Neighboring Class ~nano!")
(となりのクラスの悪魔なの)

Airdate: May 16, 2015

Recalling the day before, Laala expresses shock realizing Aroma and Mikan are her age.

The following day Laala prepares to leave for school when she finds them waiting for her- not Nao. Aroma turns on some mood noises to startle Laala and Mikan translates what she says to her, in that they should walk to school together. Laala gets distracted for a moment to ask Aroma about wearing her cloak as they make their way to school when Aroma changes the subject. However, Laala is unable to understand her at all and Mikan attempts to fix her CD Player, switching batteries to allow Aroma to use it while she reads from her prophecy book. Aroma attempts to explain what she's been saying again, which basically amounts to forming a five person team. Laala claims it isn't up to her though, while Aroma attempts to force her to make a decision.

Upon reaching school, Mirei is quickly angered by the offer and isn't at all surprised to see their true forms. Laala is surprised to know this, as well as what else Mirei knows and quickly they both become flustered while watching the duo.

In Science class, the students are informed that for the time being, Class five and Six will be combined until the teacher from Six gets better. Laala is anxious, knowing she's stuck with Aroma and Mikan, but says nothing of it. They do their work and Laala is amazed when it changes, with the teacher coming by to explain what happened. Aroma writes her off though, stating it had nothing to do with science before she places a piece of dry ice into the beaker, causing the room to fog up quickly. Quickly Mirei enters the room to inform Aroma that this is forbidden of the rules before giving Aroma a ticket. She also chastises her for playing around, but Aroma insists she isn't playing and tries to prove she is a demon, pointing out the significance of not only her birthday, but the rule number itself. By now the teacher isn't in the mood and sends Aroma out into the hallway.

Later the class plays basketball. Laala notes Mikan and Aroma are in the room with her and the class watches as Mikan gracefully dances around the room with the basketball. This distraction ends up leading to Laala being beamed with said ball a moment later. Once again Mirei shows up, once again to deliver a ticket, this time for Mikan. Mikan attempts to justify that she was told she could do it though, and Aroma argues the significance of the number Mirei broke, with the students quickly believing them while the teacher sends them both outside this team.

Later on in the day, word of the duo has began to spread. Everyone is seriously convinced that they are just using personas but are very appealed by them. As it turns out, so is Gloria and Non.

In the library Mirei approaches Aroma in a quiet corner. She decides they need to talk, but she starts, saying Aroma already planned on breaking that specific rule. She seems to be correct, and Aroma reveals she wrote several hundreds of books, which she's placed behind her. While being in class 6-6 was purely coincidental, everything else is flawless. Then Aroma goes on to insult Mirei's own Idol-self, angering her and telling Aroma off. Aroma just tells her to leave though, since she has no time to waste with her, then turns on her CD Player again. The students surrounding them are shocked to see that Mirei has actually lost an argument for once.

After school, in PriPara the devil and angel craze has quickly gathered several fans. Dressing Pafe are approached by Aroma and Mikan, demanding that they join them; but this is quickly halted by an angry Dorothy. Leona attempts to calm down his sister before she declines, once Mikan remembers what she was supposed to say. Leona agrees for Dorothy, but Shion admits that while their idea is appealing, they refuse. Aroma and Mikan take off, but tell them to think it over some more. With that the girls head to the Scanner to change and appear on stage for their performance.

After the performance their Cyalume Charms change forms and their ranking is now "Noteworthy Idols". The two groups watch from the audience and they listen to Kuma and Usagi before returning their attention to the audience and the duo on stage. Neko approaches to compliment their job well done and Aroma makes an offer to allow Dressing Pafe to join them. Shion insists its too soon but Usagi tries to convince them to do it, since they need a five-person team anyway. Laala considers what would happen if the two forces join, with Mirei and Sophie agreeing with her on how bad things may become.

8 (199)- "Debi & En Hoikuen! ~Kero?" ("Devi&An Preschool! Ribbit?")
(でび＆えん保育園！ケロ？)

Airdate: May 23, 2015

Laala is preparing to leave school when she finds Sophie nearby. She brings up how they need two more members when they suddenly hear Aroma with a crowd of classmates fawning over her and Mikan. Everyone finds them to be comedic, but Mikan hesitates upon forgetting her line - so she is forced to be reminded by Aroma. They continue their act, with Laala amazed as they run off. Sophie and Laala are joined by Mirei, who questions that Mikan may be under Aroma's control, given how the scene played out. However, Laala wants to speak with the duo before they work on locating two more unit mates and runs off.

Laala catches up to them further down the path. Before she can start to speak, a dog runs by an two younger girls chase after it. Miruku turns to her friend and tells her that unless she yells louder, the dog won't hear it. Before Laala can try to get it, Mikan jumps ahead and quickly stops Kero, the dog. Anko and Miruku explain that he was named this because he looks like a frog, and Aroma's archaic speak fails to land with the girls. They introduce themselves to Laala before mentioning their plans to perform Momotaro with Kero. Kero doesn't seem to like Aroma much, but he slowly gets over it and amazed, Miruku and Anko slowly begin to reconsider Aroma's behavior. With that she suggests their show-and-tell should be "hell" related and opens her prophecies book. But before she can get far a scribbled drawing falls to the ground.

Laala and Mikan observe the picture and quickly Aroma hides it. She is quick to put the picture back into her book, then flustered she tries to change the subject. It's then a car drives by with a female dog in it - and Kero gives chase, but Laala fails to catch the leash. Mikan runs to catch up with Kero and the car - but she suddenly loses energy and is unable to go further. As they catch up with her, Aroma explains that sharing her bread with the dog caused Mikan to only gain a little bit of energy. Seeing how sad Anko and Miruku are, Aroma tries to cheer them up by suggesting they split up into two groups; with Aroma heading out with Anko, and Miruku joining Laala and Mikan. With that the two groups split up.

Mikan explains to Laala that because she's known Aroma since they were little, she can understand her perfectly. Laala mentions that for one second, Aroma spoke normally earlier. Mikan then recalls how Aroma used to speak like that, back when they were five. Mikan used to be a tomboy while Aroma was timid and cutesy. They both watched PriPara Tv and became fast friends, but when Mikan told Mikan they should become idols in the future, Aroma refused, saying that she was too quiet. Laala notes how Anko seemed to be like this as well, and Mikan continues by bringing up a play they held. Aroma was chosen to play a demon, and when she realized her birth date matched her role, and she believed that she was meant to be a demon. However, while Mikan was happy - it scared the other children and surprised the audience. But with how well Aroma did, she started to learn all that she could about demons, and she began to write her grimoire and began to speak like a demon and grew louder. Soon, Mikan pretended to be an angel to match Aroma - and one day Aroma decided that they would become angel and demon idols. Mikan eagerly agreed and changed the picture she drew. Since then, Aroma's spoken this way. She loves Aroma more than anything, and became an angel so that they could be together. It's then Mirukuu reminds them they need to be searching for Kero.

Aroma comments to Anko that she must be louder so that Kero will hear her. She attempts to help her by telling Anko to yell. Frightened by this, Anko asks her to yell with her, and Aroma agrees. But, she doesn't and Anko is surprised to see that it worked; but she gets flustered when everyone looks at her. Nearby Sophie and Mirei notice her and they question what "Kero" is. Just as Kero returns to them, he is quick to take off in the opposite direction.

The trio sit down for a quick drink break and Laala admits that she was worried that Aroma was bossing her around or controlling her. They are joined by Dorothy and Leona, and ask if they saw Kero anywhere. Leona recalls earlier that they saw a dog, but Dorothy compared it to an Eel. They decide to take a chance and look anyway, and find Kero observing a female dog inside a pet shop. The trio run in after him but suddenly a crate falls; unleashing several snakes just as Mikan catches Kero. Everyone panics upon spotting the snakes approach Mikan, and even the shopkeeper faints from shock. Aroma sees Mikan and while frightened, Anko encourages her to do it. Laala attempts to scare the snakes away with a toy but this does nothing.

Aroma runs in and yells at the snakes to go away. When this doesn't work she forces herself to grab the snakes and sends them back tno the crate. Anko happily holds Kero as Mikan embraces Aroma for saving everyone. Dorothy and Leona curiously approach when Aroma speaks, and question what it means, along with Mirei and Sophie. They are all surprised to see how kind Aroma is, and Laala calls for Aroma and Mikan and asks them to come to PriPara with them.

After Mikan and Aroma perform, SoLaMi Smile comment on it but Kuma quickly informs them they need to hurry up and locate two more Idols to join their team. Dressing Pafe agree with their comments and Shion points out they must also work hard to find two more members for their five person unit.

Mikan and Aroma exchange friend tickets, then they head out to see the performance with Laala, Mirei, and Sophie. As it turns out Aroma wrote the play, and Anko and Miruku thank them for their help. With that, Laala announces her desire to team up with Aromageddon. Sophie agrees, and Mirei points out they both have good points and may work out after all.

9 (200)- "Aroma ni wa Naisho nano" ("Keep it a Secret from Aroma ~nano")
(あろまにはナイショなの)

Airdate: May 30, 2015

In SoLaMi Smile's official room, Mirei insists they don't accept Aromageddon's offer and recalls the fact Aroma is a lot younger than herself and shouldn't have the say in anything. Laala points out that Mirei did find Aroma to be impressive before and Mirei agrees that she did, while Laala and Sophie comment that they both get along so well. Kuma suggests they have a chat with The duo, with Mirei staying behind. As this is going on, Usagi gets an alert of this recent development and sends a message to Dressing Pafe to inform them of SoLaMi's plan. They hurry off to try to locate Aroma and speak to her first.

Aroma is busy writing in her book when she realizes Mikan isn't there with her. She recalls that Mikan had plans and folds up their picture from the past, sliding it into her book and leaving her private section of the library. As she walks by she happens to spot Mikan and brings up what she said earlier. Mikan claims she is too hungry at the time and attempts to eat Aroma's book, thinking its food. Aroma offers to grab her something and heads off while Mikan sits by. She suddenly gets a message from Neko, who reminds her that she has to hurry to PriPara so that they can set up for Aroma's party. Mikan explains she's too hungry- but Neko reminds her how important this is and she attempts to leave.

Aroma attempts to purchase some pork buns but is unable to afford them. Its then Dressing Pafe find her, and they invite Aromageddon to join them. Aroma accepts, but quickly points out that she has to hurry up and get food for Mikan. Leona offers to let them come back to their home, as their parents run an Okonomiyaki shop.

In PriPara, Neko fetches juice and food for Mikan to snack on. They decide to get started on the planning when suddenly, Sophie and Laala happen to find them. They had been searching all day for her, and Laala asks her if Aromageddon will join them. Neko and Mikan are happy, and point out that Aroma would be happy as well- but now they still need to get Mirei's approval. Neko decides to reveal their upcoming plans to the girls, as they have agreed upon joining now, and Laala and Sophie agree to lend them a hand as a sign of friendship.

At the Okonomiyaki shop, Dressing Pafe attempt to please Aroma by dressing up as demons; unfortunately they're not like the ones she had in mind at all. Leona hands her the food and offers to make it, but Aroma refuses, saying that Mikan only eats what she gives her. She attempts to make the Okonomiyaki, but struggles, as she's never done it before.

Back in PriPara, the group attempt to make a cake for Aroma. However, Sophie and Laala are disturbed by the items Neko wishes to use; such as chocolate bugs, pill bug-shaped sweets, and bat wings.

And so both sides seem to struggle, with Dorothy having to help Aroma and receiving no praise from Leona, while the cake made by the other half isn't impressive. Meanwhile, Mirei is still in school, unsure of what to do at the time. She feels that Aroma isn't a bad person, but she's unsure if forming a dream team with them would be any good, recalling how cocky she is and how annoying she can be to deal with. She believes a dream team between them is pointless and it would take out all of the enjoyment. Mirei stops by Aroma's private square to observe her secret books, and she notes how much effort Aroma put into her character and sees how she could be so talented as an Idol as well. However she is unable to understand why Aroma would even want to be with their team if she believes Mirei to be so shallow. Its then she wonders across a section involving PriPara, and to her shock a picture from her solo performance is even inside. At first Aroma dismisses her character, but she admits in her writing that she is the best pop Idol around, for being able to excite the audience the way she can. She's very hard working, and never misses any practice either. In this time Mirei feels a bit remorseful, and claims Aroma should be more honest with her feelings.

Its then Laala calls her and she asks if she's made up her mind yet. Mirei agree that she has and feels this is a good idea after all. Laala happily comments on this and Mirei takes off to join them.

Meanwhile, Aroma has just about finished making the Okonomiyaki. Dorothy taunts her once more, but Aroma insists she only slipped after it flies into the air.

Now caught up on whats going on, Mirei offers to assist the others. She goes over the details on how to make a cake, but suddenly they see that Mikan has eaten all of the eggs, along with the tray of biscuits, milk, strawberries, and even part of the cake they managed to make. Mikan attempts to stop herself from eating the cake, and she tries to force herself to avoid it after they remake it. In hopes of appeasing her, Sophie offers her a special large rice ball.

Eventually both sides finish, with Aroma happily to have made one okonomiyaki right and covered in smoke, and a brand new, purple frosted cake by the others ready and waiting in PriPara. All they have left to do is add some strawberries, and Neko compliments them for doing so well. Mikan thanks them for their help when suddenly they all hear ringing within their charms. They take them out to see nothing different, but Neko informs them that this means the ringing is a sign of a good, united Dream Team. She then reminds SoLaMi Smile of their concert and the girls thank Neko for being so reliable, then take off to change and perform.

Aroma runs around in search of Mikan, terrified that something has happened to her as Dressing Pafe follow her in an attempt to locate her. They head into PriPara to try to find her, noting how warn out Aroma is by this point. Unknown to the four, their Cyalume Charms begin to glow as they keep running.

As this is going on Mikan places a strawberry upon the cake, while SoLaMi Smile finish their concert and hurry up to locate her again. To their alarm they find that she has eaten a huge part of it and she starts to panic- along with Neko, who had been retrieving something. They watch as Mikan bawls but claim its okay, because they can make another. Laala insists they share the remnants of this cake though and they all agree, sitting down to eat it.

Just then, Aroma and Dressing Pafe manage to locate the others- leaving Aroma shocked by the sight. She is quick to yell at Mikan and Mikan attempts to claim its a secret and she tries to block Aroma. Neko attempts to stop her from getting so angry and Aroma responds by tearing their picture in half and tossing it away and allowing the wind to carry the two halves away. She then denounces Mikan as her partner and friend.

Airdate: June 6, 2015

After tearing apart their picture Aroma storms off. Mirei comments her foul mood as Leona picks up the bag Aroma dropped and reveals the Okonomiyaki inside of it as they explain how hard she worked to make it. Mikan is shocked by this and recalls that back at school Aroma ran off to find her some food. Dorothy points out where she messed up, but Laala steps in to reveal to her they had been trying to work hard for a surprise party for Aroma. She decides in order to make up with Aroma she should try to find the missing papers and apologize for what happened. With Dressing Pafe, Usagi, Kuma, Neko, and SoLaMi Smile they work together searching a large field, where they believe they saw the papers.

Sophie and the others continue to encourage Mikan as she recalls how special the picture is. It stands as a promise to their decision to become Idols. Without it their friendship and unit may really be done for. With that they resume their search until they are too tired to keep looking later on in the day. To solve things Mirei tries to put some things into consideration- but as it turns out the papers really could be anywhere in PriPara. With such an annoying revelation the girls are told that PriPara will be closing soon and they will need to get going. Just then Mikan notices something in the water and dives in it to find a small turtle laying on the page. She grabs the paper and reveals it to them, just as Meganee chastises her for entering the water. She reminds the girls that they need to return home so with no choice they take off.

The next morning, everyone stands outside of the school as Aroma angrily stands on top of the roof. The weather is stormy and they attempt to convince her down. Aroma refuses, leaving everyone confused as Mikan attempts to tell her that she loves her more than anything, and she feels bad for what happened. Aroma refuses to listen to her though and takes off after finishing, only to snub Mikan as she attempts to speak to her. Throughout the school day Mikan tries to apologize and reveal what the cake was for but Aroma refuses to listen, even trying to run to avoid her.

After Mikan falls, Laala approaches her to make sure she is okay. Aroma seems concerned but she pays her no mind, instead continuing to run away from her. She admits to Laala that she's barely eaten since their argument.

After school Mikan works on making a brand new cake for Aroma. As usual she is very hungry and wants to eat it- but Neko helps her focus so that she doesn't. She calls Aroma, who insists she doesn't need her anymore either. Before she can leave, Neko quickly points out that if she truly wishes to rid of Aromageddon she has to do some steps first.

As this is going on, everyone continues to search, with Laala informing Kuma that helping the friends reunite is a lot more important than forming a team with them. Just then they spot a goat, and it has just eaten a paper. Mirei forces it's mouth open and tries to make Laala grab what it just ate; much to her disgust. After they yank it out and see its only a picture of Kuma, they force the goat to take it back. Its then Sophie spots a butterfly fluttering about. After Mirei claims they don't have the time to sit around and watch it, they suddenly notice a "large butterfly" in the air, which they realize is the other half of the picture.

By now, Mikan has decorated the cake. She continues to work hard as she pipes frosting on it, but forces herself to resist her urges to eat it.

The goat from earlier grabs onto Leona and when the girls manage to make it let go, a piece of paper falls out. They wonder if it may be the picture.

Aroma arrives to get the disbanding over with. Neko distracts her, then forces her to see what Mikan is doing. Just as Mikan finishes decorating she almost considers eating it until she remembers its value. Aroma is confused by this, and Neko explains that they were planning a surprise party for her, and the cakes they made were for her, but incidents kept occurring. SoLaMi Smile decided to join them in a Dream Team, so they offered to help them out with it. Aroma watches as Mikan continues, now working to put strawberries onto the cake, struggling not to touch it. Just then she spots Aroma and happily calls out to her.

With that the party goes underway. Aroma observes the cake, and Mikan apologizes for the misunderstanding that occured between them. She also mentions her desire to make something nice for Aroma, because she works so hard for her sake, and she reveals that she ended up eating the Okonomiyaki that Aroma worked so hard to make as well. Aroma is touched by this gesture and realizes she may have been a little too hard on Mikan. She tells her that she can accept food from others if she's really hungry, as they can't always be together. She apologizes for being childish and Mikan quickly forgives her while embracing her. As they formally make up, Laala reveals the other half of the picture to them and Sophie recalls they assumed it to be a big butterfly until they caught it. However, Dressing Pafe wonders what it was they caught and to their disgust, they see it to be a picture of Kuma.

With the image reunited, everyone cheers up. Aroma thanks them for what they did, but suddenly the Cyalume Charms go off between SoLaMi Smile and Aromageddon. A voice informs them that they have made a Dream Team and fireworks go off in the sky to announce this in PriPara. Everyone is asked to head into the subway and over to the Dream Theater to see the performance between them. While the new unit makes their way over, they bicker of a unit name. Then once inside they snap tickets and scan them, heading into the device to perform.

Afterwards, they group note their glittering Charms. Meganii informs them that this is because with each performance, the charm resets itself to see to it that everyone gets a chance to perform and become a team. With nobody permanently bound to just one team they can try out a variety of units, and with this they all resume bickering over what to try out now.

SoLaMi SMILE go to see Fuwari just as Gloria is explaining that she doesn't need to sleep on the floor of her room. Everyone is taken back by Fuwari's open and carefree attitude, so much so that she manages to avoid receiving warning tickets from Mirei and having to wear a tie because she feels it is too constrictive like a collar on an animal. Fuwari is placed in the same class as Dorothy West, who is surprised to see her writing with chalk and slate. Fuwari explains that its easier because her goat always eats paper, just as said goat begins to devour Dorothy's notes.

Dorothy walks home with the other girls and she complains about how crazy the day was with Fuwari's goat eating her test paper, Fuwari fishing in the swimming pool, milking her goat during lunch and hatching birds on her head.

This caused an interruption in their practice but Usagi was able to bring out Dorothy from her imagination. Kuma coaches the rest of the group and they also get motivated as well, everyone but Laala, who was in deep thoughts the whole time.

Laala was outside the practice room alone until Mirei joined her and asked her what's the problem. Laala told her what she thinks about Hibiki and wants to be her friend.

CelePara Opera Company are also practicing and are determined to win the Spring Grand Prix no matter what. While so, Fuwari was watching the five idols practicing while feeling a little down.

Faruru falls but was saved by Laala, whom Faruru told to save Hibiki because she doesn't want her to experience how bad being a VocalDoll is. Laala did just that but Hibiki was too fast enough that caused a strong wind, blowing away Laala and the gang. The remaining eight idols all joined hands to support Laala and reach the bell before Hibiki.

With a cheer, the eight idols were able to throw Laala up and she was almost in par with Hibiki. While so, Laala told her that she wants to be her friend but Hibiki declines but was amazed along with the audience that Laala was able to perform Final Airy. The bell was only a few distances away, and the race begins. Reaching their hands to the bell only one was able to reach it, and that is Laala.

Because of this FriendAll was able to Cyalume Change into the Princess Coord and ring the bell. The audience broke into laughter and joy, especially Ajimi and Fuwari.

Laala thinks of a way to get her attention and remembers the day they met. She immitates Mirei but she was not affected, even the calculations didn't work out. Laala grabs Mirei's hands and the two began their journey around PriPara, but spotted Sophy floating in the river.

Laala and Mirei helps Sophie out of the water. While so, Mirei remembers the race to the Dream Theater and that the three of them worked together to win. After saving Sophie, Mirei was able to return to her gobi character and goes on a live with Laala, tagging Sophie along as well.

That's when Dorothy, Leona and Shion were able to wake up from the broken system and joins SoLaMi♡Smile. Not only them, the other idols were running towards the building and some even getting back together.

After the live, everyone snapped Friends Tickets and the system went back to normal. Fuwari was looking for Hibiki and spotted her, who was about to fall in a pit by the system. Fuwari pushed Hibiki but ends up falling instead. Hibiki saved her by using a rope but was tagged along. The two asked each other if they're okay until Ajimi comes along. She was saved by Hibiki and she asked her why she went with them. In order to interact with Hibiki, Ajimi removes her gobi character for a while and tells her why. She faints while Toriko and Ham, who also was there pushed them up but ended up stuck when the pit closes.

Faruru calls to them out but was too late. She grabs the spinal bug and asks Meganii why it trapped Hibiki. Meganii explained that system can't handle her own so it decided to trap her instead. Laala promises to the three that she will save them.

All the idols in Pripara are excited that Pripara is back to normal but begin to wonder where Hibiki, Fuwari and Ajimi have disappeared to. Meganii meets with Laala, Dorothy, Mirei, Aroma and Mikan outside the Dream Theatre and explains that each member of the team must each wear a separate princess coord and perform a dream theatre live in order to summon and ring the bell of beginnings. But there's a problem, while Laala, Dorothy and Mikan have all won multiple coords, Mirei and Aroma have only ever won the Spring coord and both of them cannot wear the same coord. However Mikan reveals she has retrieved her Autumn Coord ticket which Hibiki erased but wonders if the system will recognise it as a separate entry. Aroma tells Mikan not to worry and takes the ticket. Everyone gets ready for the performance, even Unicorn and Gaaruru have come from Pripari to see it. The team enters the Dream Theatre and performs the song Dream Parade, with each member ringing one of the five bells together and wishing to save their friends.

On a fresh, new morning Laala and Non prepare for school. While doing so, she tells Laala that she performed well in the Dream Theater which Laala is humble about. However, Non's number one favorite idol is Falulu and third is Hibiki, which Laala is surprised to know.

At Paprika Private Academy, all students were gathered for a morning assembly, where Hibiki also announces that she's going back to EuroPara, which made everyone, especially her fans, surprised. To make sure she's alright, the other main cast went to her office. They were surprised that Fuwari is there and also plans to leave with Hibiki. Hibiki explained to them why she's leaving, saying that she has some duties in EuroPara. Fuwari also tells them that Hibiki's birthday is soon and they decide to celebrate it but before they can get a word in, Hibiki kicks them all out of her office. Fired up, Mirei tells the other idols that they must throw a birthday party for Hibiki.

In order to lure Hibiki to the birthday party, the gobi idols all surprised her when she was about to enter the elevator, causing her to faint. The next time she opened her eyes, she was sitting in the center with Falulu and Fuwari. She was puzzled until Laala welcomes the idols to Hibiki's birthday and farewell party with Falulu and Fuwari. During the party, there were fun activities, dedications and more. Hibiki was also able to survive the gobi idols thanks to the new headphones Andou gave him. This made her a little guilty after she fired him for telling her wish.

Hibiki left the party without anyone noticing to feel a little better and look for Andou. Fuwari followed her and the two girls lied on the grass and had a little talk. Hibiki told Fuwari a little about how she felt during her childhood but some words from her made Hibiki more better. She also found out how she can get Andou back to her.

Everyone was having fun in the party when Hibiki appeared and was seen dressed as a lady. They were surprised but Andou was feeling a little happy on a corner. This was disturbed when the PriPara Police caught him and Hibiki showed that the image was just an illusion to find Andou. She apologized to him and asked if he can be her butler again which Andou answers with a yes.

The party ended with a performance from Hibiki, Fuwari and SoLaMiSmile. Finally, Hibiki, Fuwari and Falulu said goodbye to their friends and PriPara.

Meanwhile, the Meganiis hold a summit and showed a board saying "Divine Idol Grand Prix". The episode ends showing a baby in an area full of light crying.
