She used the magic of the fans to fly in the sky, but used too much magic and fell into the sea. Song like Kaiyuugyo no Capacity and ALIVE were meant to show her struggle. Then, the master of wizards (played by Taguchi Manaka) appeared to encourage her. Zukkii was then able to perform once more, not with magic, but with her own abilities and charms.
