Picking up the events from the previous episode, Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! Episode 9 opens with Minami Fuyuki following Tsubasa Shiki and Rena Natsukawa on their date. She even brings Sayuri Akino as her partner on this mission.

Rena Natsukawa also reveals that she hardly gets praised even though she works hard. However, she is thankful to Shiki for understanding her. Following that, Rena asks Shiki whether he has a girlfriend.

The protagonist reveals that even though he doesn't have one, he has made wonderful friends in Hokkaido who are earnest and don't make him feel alienated. Minami, who was eavesdropping the conversation, finally comes out and gets overwhelmed.

The blonde-haired girl introduces herself to Rena and reveals how big a fan she is of her. At that moment, Minami's mother arrives and she invites everyone to a Yakiniku party on the occasion of getting a bonus.
