Medalist

When former figure skater Tsukasa Akeuraji meets a self-taught skater, Inori Yuitsuka, he tries to persuade her to join a formal ice skating club; Inori's mother wants her clumsy daughter to give up skating altogether.

Tsukasa and Hitomi encourage Inori to take the Badge Test, a certification exam for figure skating which will allow Inori to qualify for competitions; on the day of the test, Inori meets a beautiful girl who looks like a princess.

Tsukasa decides to enter Inori into the Meikoh Cup to build up her record of success; when Inori feels shy dancing in front of others, Tsukasa gets her to dance in his shadow to conquer her nerves.

Inori enters her first competition, the Meikoh cup; her future depends on her performance; despite a shaky start, her mother and sister cheer her on.

Inori comes on top in the first round of the Prelims, whereas Miké is the last one to secure a spot; determined to turn things around, Miké decides to try and pull off a double rotation combination that no one at the Prelims has done before.

Hikaru is one of the best performers of Inori's generation and Inori is eager to catch up; she worries about how far behind she is in terms of her skill level compared to others her age; Tsukasa suggests Inori compete in a competition.
