Akane accompanies her senior apprentice Kyoji to a retirement home to perform as his zenza
opening act before he takes the stage. Her assignment is to offer
rakugo that pleases the audience in front of her. How will Akane be able
to prove to Kyoji that she has grown from his training? Later, she
learns about a rakugo competition for students. The presiding judge is
none other than Issho Arakawa—the man who banished Akane’s father from
the Arakawa school. Desperate to take part in the competition, Akane
must first seek permission from Master Shiguma. He allows her to
participate under one unique, tongue-twisting condition…“Jugemu.”
