Since I don't want to ruin too much, let's just jump right into the episode summary shall we? The episode picks up a few days after Shu is elected to be the new Student Council president, though it appears that he hasn't implemented the Void ranking system Yahiro proposed. Though Yahiro is opposing his decision not to implement it, Shu feels good with this decision and all of the students work equally to put up a resistance barrier between themselves and the military, which is steadily making its way towards the school. We see Hare repairing some equipment with her Void and several girls compliment her on her Void's powers and lament the fact that their Voids aren't as powerful as Hare's. Shu appears and informs them that it's not necessarily how powerful their Void is, but how they use it. This seems to cheer the girls up and Hare appears to be proud of Shu's decision not to discriminate people based on their Void's powers. We then find out through a minor flashback that they did hold an examination of everyone's Void so that they knew who had what abilities, but Shu is adamant that they not implement the ranking system. Though he's proud of himself for not caving to Yahiro's pressures, he's noticed that a few things aren't going as well as they should. With everyone helping to build the resistance, they've run into trouble with students trying to get more food from the kitchen because they're working so hard. We see an example of this with the same troublemakers approaching Tsugumi and coolly telling her that they deserve to have more food than the others, but they quickly back off when Tsumugi bares her (figurative) fangs at them. Meanwhile, we see Souta in the back of the kitchen looking depressed as he uses his Void to simply open cans of sausages.
