As Takaki Tōno plans to enter this school, Kanae Sumida also studies hard to be admitted to it. In her first year, she is in class 1-3 with Saki while Takaki is in class 1-1. They represent their classes at the cultural festival's meeting.

In 1999, all senior students are asked to fill questionnaires about their future plan. Still longing for Takaki, Kanae couldn't make a decision, and is reprimanded by job advisor Ito.

After graduating from this school, Takaki moves to Tokyo for university, while Kanae spends a year for job hunting in Nishinoomote.
