In the latest episode of "Momochi-san Chi no Ayakashi Ouji" titled "The Light That Crosses Seas," the characters discuss the beginning of summer, a festival, and the unexpected transfer of a teacher. Himari receives an invitation to the festival but declines due to prior commitments. When she returns home, Aoi surprises her and she learns that the residents of the house are preparing a festival to celebrate her achievements.

During the preparations for the "Great Job Party," Himari and Aoi stumble upon a beautiful sunflower field, leading to a discussion about Himari's love for sunflowers and their personal significance. This moment opens a window into Himari's desire to embody the qualities she admires in sunflowers.

The narrative then shifts to a deeper, introspective dialogue between Aoi and Himari, where Aoi reveals the discovery of a diary belonging to Himari's parents years after their arrival at the Momochi House. This diary, filled with personal thoughts and experiences, was devoured by evil spirits but not before leaving a profound impression on Aoi. It recounts the challenges and hopes of Himari's parents, their lack of spiritual power, and their fate, which ultimately became tied to the house.

Aoi confesses that the diary motivated her to protect Himari, as she sees it as her duty. She regrets keeping the secret from Himari, fearing she may have taken something valuable from her. However, Himari feels connected to her parents through Aoi's actions and is grateful for the revelation.

The episode culminates in the celebration of the "Great Job Party," where, despite initial difficulties with the fireworks, magical beings conjure a spectacular display. The shared moments of Himari and Aoi riding on the back of a glowing dragon offer a picturesque view of the city.

In a heartfelt confession, Aoi declares his love for Himari, bringing together the themes of the episode—duty, love, and the interplay between the human and supernatural worlds. The story ends on this emotional note, highlighting the characters' growth and their intertwined destinies within the magical setting of the Momochi House.
