1. Alice Game
Young Jun comes home from school to find a package waiting for him. He opens it, and although he is no enthusiast, he finds the most well crafted antique style doll he has ever seen. It's when he winds up its key, however, that everything begins. Destructive sister dolls start their own little drama, flying in and out of his poor, repeatedly broken window, a weepy sister doll comes crying for help, a crazy disembodied, a crazy sister doll comes body snatching... it's all a little much for Jun, but he is an affirmative action kind of guy, and he's not the type to ignore "people" who need his help, so he dives in.

Crimson Awakening
According to the cancellation notice, Jun must search the n-field for the remaining parts to complete Shinku and he is later instructed by his other self to also design some clothes for her. As he works on Shinku's clothes, Jun remembers his childhood and the events that led him to his seclusion at home. Once Shinku's clothes are completed, Jun falls asleep and finds himself on an n-field covered with doll parts, and is informed by the young Jun that Shinku's real parts are hidden among them by Kirakishou who had learned about their plans and is trying to stop them. After Jun retrieves the right parts and assembles Shinku's body, she awakens.
Teapot
Back from the n-field, Jun finds the completed Shinku inside her box and uses her key to wind her and fully awaken her at his reality. Shinku then explains to him that Kirakishou had captured her and almost all her sisters and with her body trapped in her n-field, she needed his help to transfer her Rosa Mystica into a temporary body and escape. She also reveals that by choosing to "not wind" upon receiving Laplace's invitation, Jun had erased the existence of all Rozen Maidens at his dimension. In the next day, Jun leaves for college and work with Shinku hidden at his backpack and after accompaning him for the whole day, she returns home, wondering about what she must do to stop Kirakishou as her temporary body can only last for more seven days.
Black Winged Angel
Jun receives the first volume of a second "How to Make a Doll" series but Shinku instructs him to not open it, as it may be a trap by Kirakishou. As Jun leaves for work, Suigintou appears before Shinku and it does not take long for them to start fighting again. When Jun returns home and finds the place thrashed, he orders Shinku to clean up the whole mess while Suigintou reminisces about how she met her medium, Megu, and it is revealed that when she and Megu finally formed a contract, Kirakishou appeared to steal Megu's soul, much to her despair. After the apartment is cleaned, Suigintou declares a truce and claims that she will return to the n-field once a chance appears, while Shinku ponders that eventually she will have to do the same as well, as her temporary body can last for only six days at most.
Until the Waning Moon
Jun is invited by Saito to help with her play and after returning home, he finds that another volume from the second series has arrived but decides to not tell Shinku about it. In the next day, as Jun leaves for work, Shinku and Suigintou fight each other again until they decide to keep holding their truce until they return to their original world and rescue their masters. Meanwhile at job, Jun is harassed by his supervisor and fed up with his current situation, he returns home and asks Shinku if there is a possibility for him to change his past, but she claims that it is not possible. Distraught upon the fact that Shinku will eventually return to her own world and leave him alone, Jun receives a mail instructing him to start working on the second doll, and he decides to do so only while she sleeps, keeping it a secret from her.
The Present Time
Having slept on the roof of Jun's apartment complex rather than inside her case, Suigintou's energy has been severely drained, and Shinku allows Suigintou to sleep inside her case during the day. At work, Jun buys a book titles A Doll in the Palm of my Hand for Shinku and finds another volume from the second series. Upon returning home, Jun receives another volume and hides them from Shinku. Jun and Shinku read the book he bought together. At night with Shinku asleep, Suigintou sees Jun assembling the doll, and agrees to keep it a secret from Shinku. In exchange, Jun offers himself as a medium for Suigintou. Meanwhile inside the n-field, young Jun, knowing nothing about the second series, deduces that that someone had been sending the adult Jun the message to construct the doll as himself. Young Jun tries to send a message to warn adult Jun not to assemble the doll, but the message is blocked by Kirakishou.
Antique Doll
Jun spends the next days busy as he works on the bookstore, helps with Saitou's play and assembles the doll as more parts are delivered to him. After Jun completes the doll's body, Suigintou inspects it and realizes to whom it belongs. In the next day, after Suigintou reminds her that the time limit for her to survive in her temporary body is about to run out, Shinku demands Jun to take her for the play's opening, and he agrees to do so as long as she keeps herself hidden inside his backpack. However, soon before the play starts, it is revealed that the doll to be used as a prop is missing and Shinku lets herself be found by the other members by purpose. As they decide to use Shinku, who pretends to be an ordinary doll, as a replacement. Suigintou watches the scene from hiding, knowing that Kirakishou will soon make a move.
Phantom White Rose
The young Jun and Kanaria are still trapped in the N-field, until it starts distorting itself as a sign of Kirakishou's advent. The play begins, but time stops midway and Kirakishou appears before Shinku, Shigintou and the adult Jun. Surprised that Kirakishou managed to materialize herself in the alternate world, Shinku learns from Suigintou that it was possible because one of their sisters' body was disassembled and sent there to act as a second body for her. Realizing that they have no option but to fight, Shinku and Suigintou join forces against their younger sister, until Suiseiseki arrives and much to their surprise, stands in their way, protecting Kirakishou's body. That is when Shinku realizes that Kirakishou is manifesting herself using Souseiseki's body.
Unseen Choices
Determined to make amends for being deceived by Kirakishou, Jun asks Shinku to make a contract with him. However, the other three dolls intervene, and they start fighting among themselves until Jun accidentally kisses the ring Suiseiseki was carrying, and she reveals that said ring does not belong to her, but to her twin sister instead, and Kirakishou's spirit is expelled from Souseiseki's body. Suiseiseki then demands Suigintou return the Rosa Mystica she stole from Souseiseki to its original owner, but she refuses, and Suiseiseki decides to revive her sister using her own instead. Jun awakens beside Kanaria and the young Jun in the N-Field, and after having a brief conversation, they manage to break free.
