Summary[]
With Christmas approaching, Hinaki discusses that their final performance on their tour will be taking place on Christmas Eve. Everyone is excited and they are joined by Johnny and Orihime, who came to share some words of encouragement. Hinaki points out that they will need to do their best for their home town and Akari agrees, excited that everyone they know will be seeing their performance.
The girls head out to check the venue they will be performing at and Rin asks about the weather for that day. Akari mentions that the person she spoke to earlier said it would be a miracle if it snowed this year, but they recall that it snowed the prior year and so on. Nono points out that it would definitely snow back at Hokkaido, and the girls hope it will this year here. Rin mentions Minami will be stopping by to watch them and brings up how she's never seen snow before.
They make their way back to the school with Akari checking the confirmed weather, but suddenly she spots Ichigo. She calls out to her to she approaches the girls, catching up for a moment as they discuss the snow. After Nono remarks Hokkaido will probably be covered in snow, Ichigo suggests they head over to pick some up to bring back. The girls are surprised by the funny idea, but Ichigo claims she is only kidding. She resumes her jog.
That evening, Nono recalls what happened earlier with Lisa, writing and speaking into their phones to record the event. Nono brings up how she made a joke before the Tweet goes live. Raichi and several others happen to see these tweets.
The next morning Akari gets the tweet after she, Hinaki, and Sumire finish work. They show everyone what they wrote and see the several retweets they got for it, including a Like from Aoi.
Meanwhile, Aoi is on Ichigo's radio show reporting something special. She brings up the tweet, which she knows everyone probably heard of by now. With Ran they chat about how popular it is, along with everyone getting excited for Luminas. Quite a few people wish to travel to Hokkaido to gather some snow and bring it back, and Aoi points out that it was Ichigo who brought it up to begin with. For a moment she seems clueless, but recalls that she probably did. Aoi then goes on to reveal the theme for that days letters.
Word of Nono and Lisa's Tweets began to spread around the entire area, with Nono stating that while she never planned for their posts to inflate to this level, she is delighted. Lisa recalls hearing Sumire and Hinaki mention it, along with Akari during her weather program. Seeing the big deal being made around it, Nono and Lisa decide they can't let everyone down. They quickly set up a plan to gather tons of snow back in Hokkaido to bring back to Starlight Academy.
In the Cafeteria, Yotsuba brings Johnny and Naoto some donuts and coffee. They chat about the report and Naoto points out that Lisa and Nono were pretty touched by the fan feedback they got and responded to it. Johnny agrees that everything is getting more lively.
Around the various areas, people work together to gather snow and are sending it to the final Luminas Tour concert. Volunteers from all over the country are lending a hand.
Akari asks the staff members with her if they are still predicting a sunny day. He is sure of it, but he mentions that they might be able to use a machine to make snow, using the snow that will be brought back. While it sounds good, Akari worries that it might melt.
Meanwhile, Nono and Lisa are bringing drinks to the people bringing trucks of snow from Hokkaido. A little bit of it seems to be melting, so they pray it will last until it can reach Tokyo, causing the duo to start worrying. It's then they see various people approaching with snow of their own to contribute, and they re-fill the trucks before continuing on their own.
In another location Yayoi requests everyone bring in some snow and the town citizens quickly comply. She encourages them to gather the Akita snow and together they work, with the news report doing a featured story on the subject. Concerns were held over the snow melting but with people consistantly adding more snow, it's causing to chill again and now they have no concerns.
Akari, Sumire, and Hinaki do their jogging as they recall their hard work they put into their tour. As they train, Soleil watch them with excitement, and Ichigo suggests they help out. Aoi and Ran agree.
The next day several trucks of snow have formed. Nono and Lisa return and they thank the duo for their help. The girls thank the drivers who helped lend them a hand. They don't mind at all, and they were even able to bring out their daughters to meet the girls as big fans of theirs. They thank the guys and promise to make the show really good.
Eventually the day of the final tour performance arrives. Akari, Sumire, and Hinaki stand on stage and observe the large mass of snow they were able to gather. The area fills with several idols, students, foreigners, and family members. Minami excitedly plays with the snow and she is joined by Rin and Madoka, while Johnny and Orihime inform the girls that its time to go on. They are joined by Mizuki, Ichigo, Juri, Ran, an Aoi, and they request to let Mizuki, Ichigo, and Juri join them. The girls agree and Mizuki promises they will put on a great performance.
The girls head backstage and meet up with the other trio to change attire. They voice their votes of confidence with them and together, the six head into the changing area. After they finish they reapper on the stage and perform "Hello Winter Love".
After the performance finishes, the girls have an after tour party and have cake while chatting with each other. From the side luminas watches everyone when Ichigo, Mizuki, Aoi, Juri, and Ran approach them. They all compliment how well the performance went and how much fun they had, with the others agreeing and promising never to forget. To their surprise, it suddenly starts to snow. They watch as it floats down and Akari voices how happy she was that they held this tour, which Hinaki and Sumire agree on. Akari then says once the new year starts, the Starlight Queen Cup will be beginning as well and they turn to watch the glowing tree in the distance.
