In ‘Zinnia and the Whereabouts of Passion,’ the school files a formal complaint against Yu’s family store to calm the angry parents. Yu considers quitting jewellery-making, which troubles Himari. When she expresses missing his passion, Yu wrongly concludes he’s only valued for his work.

Hibari explains Yu wasn’t prepared for fame, making criticism hard to handle, and insists Himari must support him better. Rion helps Yu realize he creates jewellery to see Himari smile. They reconcile, while Shinji secretly welcomes Kureha, who arrives seeking revenge.
