Airi is excited to visit her mother's relatives and tiny hometown and see the sights in Tokyo and Osaka, but she's a little bummed that she has to spend the summer with her boring brother and not her new friends. Even though the prank squad had a great school year together, she's worried they'll have so much fun that they'll forget her. Airi pressures herself: She's determined to make this the most fantastic trip ever, so she'll have stories to entertain her friends with.
