When the others realize that Sakura regained her old memories but lost her memories as a zombie, Sakura is left alone with Ai, who then explains everything to Sakura when she wakes up.

Sakura reveals how she became a fan of Ai Mizuno and attended one of her concerts in Arpino, where the moment inspired her to get stronger and she decided to give herself one more chance to try to do something. This leads to the events at the beginning of the first episode where Sakura decided to attend an idol audition, but is later killed after being run over by the truck. Sakura continues her conversation with Kotaro about how, upon learning of her tragedy, she made her believe that she really has no choice. Sakura asks why he brings her back as a zombie to become an idol to save Saga despite her horrible luck and declares how everyone should continue without her.

Later in the night, Sakura locks herself in while Tae tries to contact her once more. Sakura is dragged into the practice room by Tae, who breaks up after being ignored by Sakura many times.

Saki speaks from the heart to the people of Saga, saying that they must be united to overcome the disaster they are facing and inviting them to the Franchouchou concert on March 8th.

On the day of the concert, at 10 in the morning, the stadium is empty and Kotaro is nowhere to be seen. Sakura mentions out loud, that no matter what happens, whether they must face God or the Devil, she won't give up until she has her revenge. After saying this, thousands of people come to Saga thanks to Kotaro's promotional campaign and Saki's radio. Franchouchou performs the revenge concert and in the dressing room assures that Franchouchou's path is still very far and that now the next step will be to become internationally known. Their last song is "Oikaze Travelers" which they sing while showing the epilogue of the concert with Franchouchou helping Saga to recover. Finally, after dying and spending a year in Franchouchou, Sakura can make her dream of becoming an idol come true.
