Episode synopsis
November 9, 2022. At Sakurazaka46's Tokyo Dome concert, some girls in the audience shed tears as they watched the performance. The 11 girls are the third generation of members who passed the audition because they wanted to be a part of Sakurazaka46. Looking at the stage they will soon be standing on, they feel a mixture of anticipation and anxiety. However, at the intensive training camp that began the next day, these feelings were mostly dominated by anxiety. The dance was more difficult than they had imagined, their determination was lacking, and harsh words. Though the road ahead was difficult, they took the first step towards becoming Sakurazaka46, believing that they would one day shine on stage.
