Synopsis
Winter has arrived in Neo-Venezia.
As Ai, Azusa, and Anya practice together under the grey sky, they notice that Akira isn’t acting like her usual self. When the three girls follow Akira, they end up visiting the Undine Museum.
Its director, Asuka, turns out to be a revered Undine from Himeya, as well as Akira’s supervisor.
According to Akira, both she and Asuka are inheritors of a gondola that has been handed down since the establishment of Himeya, but Aika, who’s supposed to be next in line, has no interest in assuming this role.
Unable to accept this, Azusa sets out to discover the reason...
