Days later, due to the visit of his mother Shoko, Koichi asks Makoto a favor to pose as his “girlfriend”, but Shoko realizes at once that everything is a farce, because it is completely impossible to conceive that a girl like Makoto has a relationship with him. Despite this, Makoto and Koichi’s mother quickly become friends, and Shoko decides to stay longer to go sightseeing in Tokyo with Makoto.

Makoto spends the next morning with Koichi and his mother touring Tokyo, but when they get on the bus that will take them back, Kuin Hachisuka, a villain who has been responsible for several incidents related to the Improntu Villains, decides to cause anoher havoc.

Marukane music concert
Time later, Kazuho receives an email request that asks her to join a live event on the roof of the Marukane department store. She is afraid of screws up in public, yet this is a chance that does not appear often. She asks Koichi what she should do, but he does not have a clear answer or know how to help her, so he asks Makoto for help.

When Makoto arrives, she calls her by her vigilante name. Kazuho gets mad at Koichi for her knowing her secret identity, to which he replied Makoto has sharp intuition. Makoto promises her that she would not mention her vigilante activities to anyone and that if she plays an active role in helping, she would consider it as a job and not mass with interpersonal relations in the workplace; hence she insists to be relied on. Since Kazuho does not feel Koichi is reliable enough, she half-heartedly agrees to the conditions.

Makoto deduces that the live event at the Marukane is a minor event, something like neighborhood karaoke tournament, only causing Kazuho to feel insulted. Makoto suggests to really blow the sponsors' minds. As the chief manager of Captain Celebrity Agency, she calls the event planners, and convinces them to make the event something memorable, suggesting to spruce the venue for the local talent showcase and using Captain Celebrity's name to appeal more people.

When the audience begins to get rowdy, Captain Celebrity arrives after hearing that there were problems. Makoto tells him to go and retrieve some spare generators to restore the power, to which he accesses. The generators are fixed and the festival continues without further incident.

After this Makoto becomes the manager of both Captain Celebrity and Pop ☆ Step (and the group Feather Hats in general), doing everything possible to promote both and improve their public image, by making them to participate in events, attend to conferences, filming commercials, etc ... this is especially hard for Captain Celebrity, who complains that Makoto Tsukauchi gives him a very busy schedule, although he is too afraid of her to tell her.

With Kazuho, Makoto has some arguments with the detective and older brother, Naomasa, since he wants to interrogate her because she has been (involuntarily) involved in the Kanidoge incident, in addition to her past as a Vigilante, but Makoto protects Kazuho and does not want her brother to interrogate her, assuring him that she has abandoned his life as a Vigilante and now has a legal occupation as an idol.
