Episode 9: The Bamboo Lantern in My Heart

As the town prepares for the bamboo festival, Fū meets Nozomu Natsume, who was one of her father's classmates. Upon hearing Nozomu's harsh criticism of Fū's photos, Kanae can't help but express her love for Fū's photos. Later that day, Fū and Kanae run into Riho, who advises them on how the technical skills of photography shouldn't affect what's most important to the photographer. Meeting Nozomu again at the okonomiyaki shop, the girls take him to see the bamboo lanterns, where he talks about how Fū's father always put showing love in photographs over any technical prowess. Before he leaves, Nozomu asks Fū to take a picture of him.
