Tamaru and Ryo part ways. The next scene we have is Matsushima going to a different manga store. There, she also intends to buy the same book Ryo and Tamaru bought. However, Ichika bumps into her coincidentally. They do not know each other, of course. However, they easily got along with each other because they found out that they have the same taste. The thing is, unlike the atmosphere between Ryo and Tamaru, Ichika and Matsushima seem to be on good terms. Moreover, they have even shake hands with each other.

The next thing we have is that Ryo calls Ichika and informs her that Valentine’s day is approaching. Not only that, but he’s calling her every day. Hence, Ichika is really annoyed, at the same time, she also feels that she must give something to Ryo on that big day. So, Ichika seeks help from Rio on what she should give him. Nevertheless, Rio can’t help her with this matter because she doesn’t know a thing about her brother when it comes to Valentines due to certain reasons.

Ryo’s past

When Ichika is finally on her way to go home from school, Masuda saw her. Then, they went to a small restaurant to eat. There, because of various circumstances, she asked Masuda what Valentine’s gift should she give to Ryo. Masuda answered that Ryo doesn’t like chocolates because of his past. He narrates to Ichika some of Ryo’s past. Thanks to it she finds out why Ryo doesn’t like to get chocolates on Valentine’s day.

It seems that he suffered because of chocolates before. Due to that information, Ichika came up with a plan on what she’s going to do with Ryo on the said day. We will see what will happen on the next episode that will air on May 17.

The Synopsis of the story:

Once you fall for someone, you can’t stop the love. A strange encounter spurs the meeting of Amakusa Ryou, a high spec businessman who’s loose with women, and his high school sister’s best friend, Arima Ichika. From there, he falls madly in love.

On the one hand, he approaches her with almost too straight-forward methods, while she responds simply disgusted, insulting him without hesitation…and he takes it as her way of showing love. This is a romantic comedy about a twisted elite employee and a normal otaku high school girl.
