Paint What You Love♪ Rainbow Canvas
In Chapter 1, Ena talks with her friend Futaba about their art class and wonders about their teacher's critique of Ena's painting. She then notices Honami standing outside the beginners' art class with a doubtful look on her face and mentions seeing her there last week as well. When Futaba thinks she might be nervous of going inside, Ena's mind flashes back to her starting to feel sick while facing the art class building after 2 years in her last focus event. Ena symphatizes with her saying she might be uncertain about going in and thinks to herself how drawing requires a lot of willpower. Honami is then shown thinking how she might be able to improve her art skills if she entered the art class. It is then revealed that Honami is going to be a kindergarden teacher for her job experience assignment together with Emu, and her face goes pale after their teacher tells them the kindergarden wants them to paint one of the walls with animals to give it a "zoo-like feeling." After Honami goes over to Kanade's for housework, she explains her dilemma to her, who then tells Ena if she could give any advice to Honami. After a bit of thinking, Ena offers to help Honami and see what kind of advice she could give, because Honami is always taking good care of Kanade. Ena tells Kanade to give her Honami's contact information and Kanade thanks her. Ena tells herself that despite thinking she isn't so good at art, she'll do her best to help Honami out. A few days later, the two start messaging each other and Ena thinks Honami really is a polite and nice girl just like Kanade had said. Honami explains her problem to Ena, how everything she tries drawing turns into something unrecognizable, and Ena is surprised and ponders maybe Honami really can't draw, but how she can't give proper advice without seeing her art first. Ena asks for a picture and after half an hour she thinks of going to sleep but gets a reply from Honami. Honami asks what Ena thinks of her drawing of a dog and Ena is completely shocked, trying to see it at different angles (considering it abstract art or she's trying to show a metaphor of something etc.) before realizing there's no way Honami would try putting such deep meanings into her art if she can't draw in the first place. Ena tells her it's an impactful drawing and Honami apologizes before begging Ena to teach her. Ena realizes how thoughtful Honami is and decides to help her out.

In Chapter 3, Honami thinks how happy she is that Ena is going to teach her and she ponders where they could practice before Emu suggests they can use her home for their lesson and how she wants to join as well. While trying to search for Emu's house Honami and Ena bump into each other and Ena mentions seeing Honami in front of her beginners' classroom, embarrassing her. Seeing how much Honami wants to improve, Ena is motivated to help her out. After their introductions, Ena asks where Emu's house is and is then shocked, asking if people really live in such big houses. The two express their surprise over the size of the residence and Ena is even more shocked upon realizing Emu's family owns PXL. Honami apologizes for not mentioning it to her before as she only had drawing in mind, but Ena reassures her that she was only shocked herself.

In Chapter 4, Honami asks Ena to help her improve so people can recognize the animals she will draw. After Ena gives them an assignment, she sees Honami's face stiffened up and then gets flustered when Ena asks for her progress. Honami then confesses she feels embarrassed about being watched while she's drawing because she used to get teased by the other kids for her art skills when she was younger, and even now is afraid people will laugh at her art. Ena symphatizes with her, thinking she was traumatized and how she too was shocked back when Yukihira criticized her art hard in front of everyone. Ena assures her it's fine and how nobody will laugh at her. Honami finds her resolve and tells Ena's she's counting on her, and the latter tells her to do her best. At first Ena feels positive but is shocked seeing Honami's drawing process. When she's finished Ena is at a loss for words, trying to find a perfect way to word her question before Emu expresses how Honami's drawing looks like a sea cucumber. Honami dejectedly says she was trying to draw an elephant. After a bit of banter between Honami and Emu, Ena points out Honami isn't able to grasp the shape of what she's trying to draw which is why her drawings always end up so weird. She then suggests they look at something and trace it.
