RECAP: Akane-banashi Chapter 75 Spoilers and What to Expect in Chapter 76
Akane gets into the spirit of things as she sees classmates, superiors, and even her sensei get into their roles. She even receives a pep-talk from Shiguma Arakawa to “tighten up your loincloth” or to clear her mind. When she catches herself pondering over her loss again, she realizes that’s the trap she fell into.
In the closing moments the chapter, you see her fire return once again, turning a festival food stall sales pitch into a story in itself, winning over the crowd. In a contest to drive sales, her in-person charm will win out. While it’s not a current concern she will have to revisit how she can win over streaming audiences when that becomes a concern once again.
