Spoiler Warning!! [+/-] Show/Hide Synopsis...

This episode begins with Fujiyoshi bumping into Nozomu while she is on her way to make copies of her doujinshi for Comiket. Through a misunderstanding in which Nozomu thinks of doujinshi in the literary sense rather than in the manga/anime sense, Nozomu ends up going to Comiket to sell his doujin literature with mixed results. At Comiket, Chiri reads Fujiyoshi's yaoi doujinshi and admonishes her for not adhering to the 4-koma manga format, which she feels is the only one that is acceptable. Chiri forces Fujiyoshi to rewrite her manga in 4-koma format, while following the Kishotenketsu structure. On the way back from Comiket they meet Kafuka, who talks Chiri and Fujiyoshi into drawing more manga that strictly adheres to the above mentioned format. Maria tries to draw a 4-koma manga as well, but doesn't quite get it right. Nozomu introduces a fifth element to the Kishotenketsu structure, Yami (Darkness), which involves adding a fifth panel to the 4-koma manga containing a twist ending. The second half of the episode involves the girls at a matsuri, where overzealous festival-goers begin piling random objects and people on portable shrines and dancing and parading around with them.
