A SUMMER FULL OF SURPRISES!

The summer holidays are just around the corner for the 1st Years. After surviving their first semester at GEN Academy, they'll be dutifully rewarded with a two month break away from the school, allowed to go back to home and visit their family. However, before that can happen, the school holds its annual summer special exam for the 1st Years, the Mixed Outdoors Bootcamp!

For one whole week, the 1st Years will be divided by gender and have to form groups in order to complete a special programme up in the mountains. Twist is, all the groups have to be made up of people from different classes! During this process, A Class leader Ryouta devises a strategy that unites all the representatives into one group... including the stubborn Machida. Despite the fact his faction formed their own group, Machida strangely refused to join, instead going with Ryouta and the others.

Another surprise comes from the ever ambitious Shigeru, who crafts a group full of the strongest students, and even invites Kawaguchi to join. The D Class boys also team up with Albert, lodging Mitsuba at their helm. Meanwhile, things get murky behind the scenes as Shimada and Nakajima team up to form an unlikely group combination with Yamamoto and Kouji...

However, Takanori can't afford to worry about that. He has his own hands full with his group, as Ikeda is gearing up to face him in the future, and Zyriot is aiming to knock him down from behind. Even so, these ambitious individuals must put aside their differences in order to clear the trials and tribulations that lay ahead of them in this tough and gruelling week. Amidst all the chaos is Ryouta, an anomaly that even Takanori can't ignore anymore.
