Summary

A magical girl who is just enjoying summer vacation with her friends. This may seem like a normal swimsuit, but it's actually her Magical Girl outfit - and the fishing rod is her weapon. She's no pro fisher, but she'll reel in even the hugest of fish if it's for her friends' sakes.

Side Story

The following is a summary posted on 4chan's /pmmm/ general by Summary Anon.

Homura visits Kamihama to find clues to ensure everyone has a happy end. She meets Sayaka who is also visiting but it's because she wants to pick up an old album for Kyosuke. Seeing Homura being a little down, Sayaka takes Homura to the beach to take part in the Kamihama PM fishing festival. Reaching the registration counter, Sayaka offers to buy drinks for Homura and goes off.

Mitama announces that all participants must be in swimwear, but she can help by transforming the PM wear to swimwear for free. Momoko tells Homura to say no if she does not want to participate, but Homura is very excited about the event, making Mitama feeling a little guilty.

On the other side, Sayaka meets Kanoko who sees Sayaka as the perfect model for her new swimwear. Sayaka didn't want anything to do with it at first, but Kanoko's pleading, hugging of her leg made her relent. The swim wear is like a mascot costume, a mix of mermaid and eryngii mushroom which shocks Sayaka speechless, but she is pressured into wearing it anyway. She muses that sending a picture to Kyousuke in this just to see his reaction is worth it.

Back to Homura, she has changed into her swimwear and meets Iroha and Sana. Iroha informs her that the whole Nanami-ke is joining the fishing competition, and Homura muses there are a lot of participants.

The list includes:

• Seika trio where Seika claims she has trained by watching hot-blooded fishing dramas. She also revealed that her magia doesn't really summon fishes.
• Miyako and Emiri, though Miyako tells her junior using dynamite to fish is against the law when she suggests she use her chemicals.
• Rena and Kaede, where Rena has no idea how to hook the bait and has Kaede do it for her.
• Meiyu, though she tells Emiri that using her magia to fish is out of the question.
• Himika is there to sell Nereis as bait.
• Konoha and her sisters. It is reveled that Hazuki has a huge dislike for worms and Konoha gets knocked out cold for looking at the wriggling movement of the Nereis bait they bought for Ayame for too long.
• Manaka representing Walnuts and Tsuruno with Felicia representing Banbanzai are hired for catering.
• Kokoro, Masara and Konomi are also participants.

On the other side of the field, Homura brought food for Sayaka who is stuck in the costume. She says it comes with a built-in fan, so it is not too bad, and Homura reveals that she took both food from Walnuts and Banbanzai since she pities the latter who have very few patrons. When asked about the taste, Homura says the Banbanzai food has too huge a portion, the taste is too strong and too much old is used: bad for an ex-hospital stayer. Sayaka offers to share the food, and they do.

After eating, Sayaka falls asleep and dreams that Kyousuke is heading to Czech to study violin. As she is chasing after him, she sees Homura consoling her to let Kyousuke go and live her own life. Before she can retort angrily, she gets shocked speechless since Homura is wearing the same suit as she is, claiming that it can shorten time and asks Sayaka to join her for the Olympics. Kanoko joins in with the suit and Sayaka wakes up screaming, realizing that everything is just a dream. Heading to the shore, she finds Homura fishing for her glasses. Homura informs her that many things happened which led to her glasses falling into the sea. She is strongly against Sayaka's suggestion to get help and insists on fishing her glasses up and succeeds.

Back to Mitama, it is revealed that nobody managed to fish anything, in which Masara notes that's obvious since 3~4 PMs fell into the sea, scaring away the fishes. Leila and co. mentions that it is lucky they are PMs since what happened would land regular people in a hospital, and it is revealed that Konomi is one of those girls that fell into the sea, but she is alright. Sayaka wonders what the hell could have happened when she was out.

Mitama decides that Homura wins the qualifying rounds since she at least managed to fish her glasses up, and pits her against the ex-champion, Yachiyo. The girls note that Yachiyo is a little high, and Mitama sheepishly revealed that Yachiyo was unwilling to take part in the second tournament, so she hypnotized her in the name of trying out a new trick to consul PMs when they know of the truth of PMs to prevent them from turning to witches, and it works too well: Yachiyo is high in the competition.

Being too high, Yachiyo mistook Sayaka in her suit as bait and threw her into the sea. Kanoko exclaims that the suit is not water-proof since her pocket money is not enough to buy such materials, at which Momoko slaps her head at the idea of swimwear that is not water proof.

Sayaka suffers from electric shocks since there is a fan inside the suit. Masara acts first, wanting to dive in to help Sayaka, but Kokoro informs her that's a bad idea since she will get electrocuted as well. Before anyone can do anything, Sayaka's doppel springs into action and saves her life. As the doppel is a mermaid, it went wild in the sea, dragging Yachiyo into the sea as well. But she regains her posture pretty quickly and began water skiing using her fishing rod and legs while Sayaka's doppel pulls her around.

Homura manages to fish the doppel up after using some time when she connects her heart to it and wins the huge trophy from Mitama and is praised by the others though they think the trophy is too huge.

Returning back home, Sayaka thanks Homura for helping her and tell her she is depending on her to watch her back, and she can depend on Sayaka to watch her back too. Homura happily says she will help her no matter what and mo matter when, ending everything on a good note.

There’s a scene afterward, with the doppel mocking Homura for having fun. Homura does a better job than the previous event in confronting it, but still can’t overcome it. The doppel blames her not only for Madoka’s death, but all the deaths that have occurred (including Kuro) and pre-emptively blames herself for all the deaths that will occur. That is the thing that Homura as she is can’t overcome because she’s self-loathing enough to believe it. Just another Homura insulting and scolding Homura for enjoying summer and being reliant on Madoka's kindness. She says Homura will never be able to help anyone like this, and says her weakness caused the death of Kuro, and it mocks her for enjoying her life despite Kuro's death.

Homura retorts that moving forward is not the same as dwelling on the past and wallowing in self pity. She claims that just protecting Madoka's life is not enough: she has to protect her happiness and the rest of her friends as well, and tells her inner self that she will not disappear.
