Synopsis[]
Since the Toy Box has been destroyed, the Debris Section go on a holiday on Earth. Tanabe and Yuri accompany Hachimaki on a visit to his mother, Haruko Hoshino. At the household, they meet Hachimaki's brother, Kyutaro Hoshino, who is a rocketry enthusiast. Yuri helps Kyutaro modify his home-built rocket and then helps him conduct a test launch at the beach. Hachimaki and Tanabe, after meeting an old friend of Hachimaki's at the grocery store who mistakes Tanabe for Hachimaki's girlfriend, stop for a walk on the beach. They almost kiss, but are interrupted by Kyutaro's malfunctioning rocket. Fee informs Hachimaki that the Debris Section has received a new debris hauling ship. Hachimaki makes Kyutaro apologize to Yuri for breaking his compass during the failed launch, but Yuri thanks Kyutaro for doing so, as the destruction of the compass has helped him realize how to move on with his life and not dwell on the past. As Hachimaki, Tanabe, and Yuri fly back to the ISPV 7, Kyutaro successfully launches his rocket with Yuri's compass in the nosecone [1].
