■Episode 5 "Magic Vision Promotion Activities Meeting" Synopsis
Academy life begins. The new students undergo physical measurements, and in the fitness tests, Nia ends up surpassing all of the records set by Relia, who keeps challenging her at every turn. Later, on the long-awaited club tour, she meets Gandolf, the assistant instructor of the Tenpa-ryu school, but is disappointed by his reliance on sheer muscle. Nia has her maid Rinokis face him in a match against another school, and Rinokis defeats him with ease. Meanwhile, at Hilde's urging, the first "Magic Vision Promotion Activities Meeting" is held, and a new viewer-participation program takes shape!
