(W) Shinobu Amano Kujou has begun to feel nervous when she's in Yanagi's presence, while Yanagi laments her unnatural behavior. As Souma watches how awkwardly they act around each other, his feelings toward Kujou begin to change. Meanwhile, the Astronomy Club holds a hotpot party at Souma's place, where the secret of his past is revealed! This volume also includes the one-shot 'Ninja Love.'

(W) Shinobu Amano Yanagi and Kujou's trip to an amusement park begins with a haunted house, where Yanagi offers to hold her hand if she's scared. But with Momoka and Souma (and Yoshida-senpai) meddling, something is bound to go awry! Meanwhile, watching Momoka and Yanagi together is making Kujou feel uneasy... and her changing behavior is beginning to change Souma, too.

(W) Shinobu Amano In elementary school, the rich and spoiled Yanagi Naoto was known for excelling in both studies and sports. But then he suffered the first setback of his life when Kujou Mikoto, a girl from a poor family, transferred to his school and performed better than Naoto at every turn. Reeling from this unforgivable blow to his pride, Naoto decided that he had to make Mikoto lose at something... by making her lose her heart to him, which he could then break! Now that they're both in college, will Naoto finally be able to win Mikoto's affections-or will he lose this final game with her?

(W) Shinobu Amano There's finally been a confession! Just not the one Yanagi's been trying to muster up the courage for. When Kei tells Kujou that he likes her, it gets Kujou thinking... what does it even mean to like someone? Now she's stuck-not only does she need to find a way to answer Kei's confession without destroying their friendship, but she also now has to look within. Could she have feelings for Yanagi after all?

(W) Shinobu Amano Kei's beaten Yanagi to the punch (even without the several-years head-start) and confessed his feelings to Kujou. But now things are super awkward-Kujou's yet to give him an answer, and all she can think about is Yanagi. Kei takes the opportunity to invite her on an aquarium date and finally get her answer, even if it's not the one he wants to hear. But will the two be able to move on amicably from this?
