2. Nikomaru Can`t Keep Smiling
Hinohikari has decided to enter the Harvest Festival in order to start not a rice boom, but a rice riot. He asks Nikomaru, Akitakomachi, Hitomebore, Sasanishiki, and Chinkobozu to join him, but none of them are willing. Finally Nikomaru can't bear to watch anymore and offers him a surprising suggestion, but can Hinohikari bring himself to take him up on it? || Hinohikari has decided to enter the Harvest Festival in order to start not a rice boom, but a rice riot.

3. I`ve Had Enough of the Usual Rice Planting
Hinohikari had just grown accustomed to being a member of Nikomaru and Akitakomachi's HarveStar unit, "Blend Mine," when the subject of Akitakomachi's past comes up and they stumble upon a fatal flaw in Blend Mine. So the new unit name suggested by Hinohikari after he had saved it up—no, kept it warm—for a long time is "Love Rice." Meanwhile, Sasanishiki watches the three of them from afar... || Hinohikari had just grown accustomed to being a member of Nikomaru and Akitakomachi`s HarveStar unit, "Blend Mine," when the subject of Akitakomachi`s past comes up and they stumble upon a fatal flaw in Blend Mine.
