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. Unfortunately, Inoris mother wants her clumsy daughter to give up skating altogether.

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. During skating practice, Inori also meets a girl named Miké at the rink.

Inori came in top in the first round of the Prelims, whereas Miké was 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.

Inori faces the level one badge test, setting her next step of competing in a championship. A successful double jump will be essential for a high score.

After a smooth start, Inori decides to take each jump carefully, one by one. She controls her center of gravity and maintains a high speed, and Tsukasa cannot hide his excitement as she continues with her flawless performance.

Tsukasa learns of the anguish Rioh has been carrying, and dances Riohs program on the rink. Rioh is surprised to see that Tsukasas skating is much more skillful than he expected.
