Shock! MakoPi Declares Her Idol Retirement!"

As Makoto wonders if she should continue being an idol now that she's found the princess, Cure Ace, who formally introduces herself as Aguri Madoka, tells Makoto that she feels her heart is wavering, claiming she isn't giving her all in neither singing or being a PreCure. Feeling she has no reason to sing, Makoto decides she should quit singing altogether, planning to announce her retirement at her next concert. Not liking this idea, Mana and the others try to convince her about the joy of singing, to little avail. On the day of the concert, Leva targets a reporter and creates a Microphone Jikochu. Meanwhile, Makoto receives a Mirror Lovead from Ai which allows her to speak with Ange, who tells her to sing for herself. Finally becoming honest with her own feelings, Makoto rekindles her love of singing and beats the Jikochu alongside Aguri.
