Cover page: “Tokugawa Azusa 16 years old.
Top model in the magazine ‘Eighteen’. She is the jewel of Toushou
Academy’s chairman. And all the students of the school viewed her as the
‘ideal partner’. But, she also has a secret, a side which others do not
know. She’s the self-proclaimed ‘Queen’ of the whole school-” While
holding hands with Shino, Mitsuru think that Asusa has made him and
Shino her attacking targets. They have arrived at the shoe lockers. Some
girls say that those two are coming. They suddenly throw eggs at the
two. Quickly wielding his shinai, Mitsuru blocks all of the eggs.
Mitsuru laments over their lack of creativity. As he walks away with
Shino, Mitsuru tells the girls to remember to apologize to the mother
hen for the waste of food. Azusa’s underlings are gloomy that they
didn’t even manage to get in a hit. In section 1-F, Mitsuru greets
everyone but the others look surprised and tense. He discovers that his
table and seat are missing. He tries to ask the others about it but they
just snub him. They were muttering that Kobayashi would unexpectedly
quarrel with Azusa. Did ‘her’ brain short-circuited that ‘she’ would
quarrel with the chairman’s daughter? Anyone would have a good
relationship with Kobayashi will be targeted and they don’t want to talk
with ‘her’. Mitsuru angrily thinks so that is how it is, everyone fears
Azusa that he is totally snubbed. Then, he is surprised that Mego’s
otaku friends call out to her and say that it is okay, they found ‘her’
table and chair. They tell ‘her’ that they found it near the
incinerator. It took them some time because they have to clean it up for
use, because the table was messily drawn on. A guy asks the friends if
they know what they are doing for they will be targeted if they continue
being friends with Kobayashi. The friends exclaim that for them, Mego
is more important and if they plan to alienate ‘her’, then, they can
also alienate them. Tomo sticks out her tongue to them and says that is
how otaku are friends. Shizu says that fundamentally, as otaku-s, they
only have Mego as their friend. Mitsuru smiles and thinks that Mego’s
best friends are really great friends.
During lunch break, Mitsuru invites Shino to eat with him and Mego’s
friends. While having a picnic style lunch, they had a toast for their
‘isolated’ alliance together. Then, they exchange some food with Shino
because hers, look delicious. And, they laugh at ‘Mego’ for stuffing
‘her’ face with food like a squirrel. Shino laughs at him and this made
Mitsuru blush over how happily she laughed. It is the first time he
heard her voice and he thinks that she’s so cute. Tomo says that Shino
can’t stop laughing and she is so happy. Looking at Mitsuru, Shino
gestures with her hands, “Thank you, everyone. It’s the first time I’m
so happy when eating lunch.” Mitsuru quickly gestures back, “Me, too.
‘Very happy’.” He thinks that he always thought that all girls are very
cute but he has never met before a ‘cute’ girl who is special. Looking
from the window, Azusa is furious that Shino can be that happy. She
angrily kicks the wall and shouts that she wants to properly take care
of them, make them cry and kneel down to her. Her underlings try to
pacify her. Angrily biting her thumb nail, she mentally curses and
wonders how to fix them up for if they increase, it will become more
troublesome. Then, Mitsuru notices something above. He quickly stands up
and shouts for the others to be careful. Some water got splashed on
Mitsuru. It is Azusa with a pail. She apologizes for not noticing the
four mice below. Mitsuru is furious and calls her a scoundrel. Tomo
tries to offer her handkerchief. Someone suggests that ‘she’ first
change ‘her’ clothes. Mitsuru angrily curses for if he kept on wearing
these wet clothes, he’ll catch a cold. In the changing room, Mitsuru is
once again furious for Azusa has messed up his gym clothes. He wonders
what he should do to make Azusa give up. Seeing a baseball guy passing
by outside, Mitsuru puts on his most seductive charm. While partly
undressed with curtain covering him ^^;, Mitsuru asks the guy to lend
his gym clothes to him since his clothes are wet. Thinking that ‘she’s
cute to the max, the baseball guy happily lends Mitsuru some clothes.
Mitsuru thanks him. While he changes his clothes, Mitsuru thinks that
his clothes and wig are wet so he can’t use them until they are dry.
Then, he notices that there is a pair of glasses in the pants’ pocket.
He wears them and feels like some sort of detective. He is quite pleased
with his simple get-up to transform back to his male self.
While walking at the hallway, he wonders where he’ll sleep in the
afternoon while waiting for his wig and clothes to dry. To his surprise,
he meets up with Azusa. He freezes when Azusa asks if she has seen him
before, and what class section is he in. Looking away from her, Mitsuru
lies by saying that he is 1-D’s Yamada Tarou [guesswork from 山田 太朗].
Azusa wonders if there is such a person. She thinks that from his aura,
‘Tarou’ isn’t weak but he is unexpectedly trembling. “If I can take
advantage, perhaps, I can make him my underling.” Turning his face
towards her, Azusa says that she has a wish and can he hear her out. In a
flirting way, she tells surprised Mitsuru about her request in making
him take care of something, and that is, she needs help in dealing with
some people and he can use whatever method he wants to use. And,
afterwards, she’ll let him do whatever he wants. Azusa thinks that with
that, this guy will do her bidding. Mitsuru says he understands. Azusa
is surprised when Mitsuru suddenly firmly grasp her wrists that she
can’t shake them off. Mitsuru says that he will do it according to what
she wants but in exchange, he wants to get the promise of reward in
advance. Just when Azusa is freaking out that Mitsuru is going to kiss
her, he gives her a light headbutt instead. After she shouts that it
hurts, Mitsuru sticks out his tongue and says that he’s just kidding for
the great him isn’t interested in a girl like her. Mitsuru tells her
that he doesn’t like a ‘playing around according to conditions’ type of
girl. He says that if she treats ‘playing with guys’ really lightly,
she’ll encounter a very bitter lesson. “Tokugawa-chan, have you ever
gone steady with a guy?” Blushing really red, Azusa can only say, you..
Mitsuru tells her that with just one look, he knows. “The method of
seduction is quite underhanded but your reaction is quite stiff.” Azusa
blushes and realizes that was the reason. Mitsuru continues to say,
“..it will be good if there’ll be a day when there’s someone you’ll
like.. Not long ago, I also treated people very badly. Very egoistic.
Totally refusing the girls chasing after me, that kind of feeling. But
I’ve met the girl whom I sincerely like, and it is the first time I’ve
realized (If she cries, I’ll also be sad. If she smiles at me, I’ll be
so happy to death.) that I also want to be become a very kind person.
Even if it is a bit embarrassing to say it, the whole heart will also
become very kind. *pointing to her chest* It is there. It would be good
if you’ve experienced this, *smiles* encountered that kind of person.”
Azusa looks surprised. Then, she suddenly headbutts Mitsuru. Mitsuru
says that hurts. Azusa says that it is quite rare for someone to pose
like that and lecture her. “What’s with kindness? Can it be eaten? It
doesn’t even have any use. Ha! Unluckily for you, this ojousama really
likes her current self. What romance, what love, extremely boring!!
You’re dreaming during the day, stinky glasses guy!!” Azusa turns around
and runs off. Mitsuru is flustered and surprised. He wonders what’s up
with that girl for she isn’t a bit cute. Azusa runs outside and starts
kicking the tree to vent her angry over that glasses guy for talking in
such a high and might manner. Remembering him telling her that it would
be good if she experienced love, blushing really red Azusa angrily
wonders, “Why am I.. Why does my heart beat so fast because of that
stinky glasses guy. *thump thump* Too noisy!” Narration: “And, another
new romantic love is drawn out.” By the window, Shino looks at her
cellphone with the name ‘Sanada Aoi’ in the contacts. There is a
lavender phone strap on her phone. Blushing, she lightly puts the phone
on her lips. Narration: “When numerous red threads intertwine, it
becomes a loop and the gears of fate start to turn.” Meanwhile, Mego is
telling Aoi to quickly look, cute Mego the cat is eating cake. Aoi
somewhat laughs and thinks that the two loves to make a fuss. Narration:
“From longing, a thought is born. From thought, it becomes love. This
feeling for you is a flower blooming splendidly in my heart. Very
beautiful flowers are flourishingly blossoming like a brocade. Now, the
flower of love unaffectedly blooming.” Love chart: Azusa -> Mitsuru
-> Shino -> Aoi <- Mego <- Mogami. Blurb: “Could it be that
Queen Tokugawa has fallen for Mitsuru?! Next chapter, the love of these 5
people linked together passionately unfolds!!”
