BanG Dream! Ave Mujica episode 7, titled Post nubila Phoebus., centers on the MyGO!!!!! members' efforts to help Mutsumi with her personality disorder. Soyo reaches out to Sakiko, believing she is the best person to help due to her connection with Mutsumi.

Though Soyo convinces Sakiko to visit, the meeting does not go as planned. Mortis, who continues to shield Mutsumi, reacts harshly, leaving Sakiko affected. Despite this setback, Sakiko is more resolute than ever to reach out to Mutsumi.

Mortis continues to keep Mutsumi isolated and away from Sakiko, but one night, Mutsumi momentarily breaks free and reunites with her, albeit briefly. Meanwhile, the MyGO!!!!! members struggle with the situation, their concern for Mutsumi affecting their rehearsals.

One day, Taki encounters Sakiko outside Mutsumi's house. They reconcile after their fallout following CRYCHIC's breakup. Soyo also joins them. As they reminisce about CRYCHIC outside Mutsumi's room, Sakiko shares how much the band meant to Mutsumi.

Her words move Mortis, ultimately leading her to allow Mutsumi's true personality to resurface. Finally, Mutsumi and Sakiko reconcile, mending their broken relationship.

Afterward, MyGO!!!!! members meet up for a rehearsal, and Mutsumi and Sakiko also join. This moment marks the reunion of all CRYCHIC members. Encouraged by Anon, they perform together one last time, reliving their past but precious memories.

Despite CRYCHIC being disbanded, this performance allows them to gain closure, heal from their past wounds, and put aside their lingering resentments. Performing two songs, they share an emotional moment as they come to terms with their breakup.

However, as the reunion unfolds, Umiri watches from afar, appearing visibly unsettled. The episode concludes on a tense note as she later approaches Sakiko and Mutsumi, suggesting that they should also have a reunion.
