An Encouragement of Learning
Kotaro begins studying incredibly hard to go to Akane’s school, despite not having sufficient grades. Initially, his mother is elated, having earlier criticized his hobbies as distractions. However, at a PTS conference, Kotaro reveals his true intentions, straining his relationship with his parents. Meanwhile, in addition to studying, Akane starts knitting a scarf for Kotaro.

And Then
Kotaro learns that he was not accepted into Akane’s school, saddening them. Daisuke suggests Kotaro use it in his writing, while Ayane suggests Akane should break up with him rather than do long-distance.
