Titled I'll Make It Happen, No Matter What with These Two Hands, My Dress-Up Darling season 2 episode 6 witnessed the cultural festival finally arrive. A day prior, Marin and Gojo were scratching their heads on how to recreate a Rainbow Rose, an integral part of the Rei-sama costume.

Painting it didn't help as the colors bled too much. This is where Marin's friend Seira came to the rescue- she cut the stem of a white rose three ways and placed it in three separate tubes with colored water. That night, Marin and Gojo had dinner at the latter's place, cooked for the first time by his grandfather.

Through these two and the previous incidents, Gojo was learning that relying on others wasn't as bad as he thought it was. Come the day of the festival, the Rainbow Rose was ready and everyone was busy helping out with their class' stall, the decorations, and a number of other activities.

However, Class 3 was beating Class 1-5 due to the popularity of their stall, selling rice and curry. The latter's last hope of winning was the beauty pageant, which was around the corner. Wanting to work on Marin's make-up with no disturbance, Gojo asked to use the sewing room. But their classmates soon arrived there too.

All of them were eager to watch Gojo at work, as they had never seen cosplay make-up done before. Moreover, Gojo's background in Hina Doll-making especially intrigued the girls. Seeing all of them started to overwhelm Gojo as he began to feel the pressure of performing and not letting them down.

But with a deep breath, he channeled those feelings into positivity, telling himself that everyone was relying on him, especially Marin. For her to look her best, his make-up skills were needed, and he was going to do it, no matter what. Laser focused, Gojo relaxed and began to work as everyone watched on in awe.

My Dress-Up Darling season 2 episode 6 then transitioned to the actual pageant, with Marin being called up to the stage. She walked in amidst immense excitement and a great deal of yelling as she looked exactly like PrezHost's Rei-sama. When asked about her outfit, she mentioned Gojo's name and his efforts.

Standing at the back, the boy felt a gush of emotion, similar to when he first saw a Hina Doll - like the doll, he saw Marin as dazzling and simply beautiful. Marin's performance was also a hit, the final bit sweeping the Student Council President off her feet by pulling her in by the waist and calling her "Princess."

In the end, My Dress-Up Darling season 2 episode 6 saw Class 1-5 grab the victory, the beauty pagent win giving them a significant boost in points. Next came a well-deserved afterparty, where all ate, drank, and sang karaoke. After a while, Gojo stepped out for a breather, with Marin soon coming to look for him.

They spoke of the pagent performance and ended up visiting the arcade. A few games later, Marin wanted to take photos with Gojo, something she had never done. But her request to do so saw the boys happily join in for a group shot.
