It's not that I like you, yet.

Okay, see you later.
Sure.
Study session, right?
Good luck.
Don't go back to sleep.
Don't worry. I set an alarm.
So you're definitely going to.
Bye.
Seems like things are back
to normal between you two.
Glad to see that.
Sorry for causing trouble.
Okay, then, as an apology,
you have to come shopping with me.
Shopping?
I want to redecorate my room.
That came out of nowhere.
Sorry, but not today.
I might have something important coming up.
Talk to you later.
What do you mean, you "might"?
A study group?
Yeah. After school. Want to?
Why?
Well, y'know, midterms are coming up.
You said you weren't too good at math.
I was thinking maybe I could help you.
I'm the top of our grade, remember?
I'm tentatively the top!
Sounds fun.
Morning!
Morning.
You look cute as always, Erika-chan.
You, too.
It's finally here!
My chance at a rematch!
I embarrassed myself in front of
her on the amusement park date.
We use the sine theorem
to solve this problem.
I never had a chance at making a
good impression on the foreign soil
that is the amusement park to begin with.
But here, at a place I'm familiar with,
I can play to my strengths
and show off my studiousness.
Does that help?
Yeah, that was really easy to understand.
You're really dependable, Umino-kun.
This is definitely my best chance.
Isn't it?
Is Umino all right?
Maybe he's lost his mind
from studying too much.
I'm here.
Shall we?
TOKYO CENTRAL LIBRARY
I've made a huge mistake!
We can't talk in the library!
Why didn't I notice something so obvious?!
I must be stupid!
How's it going?
How's it going?
Terrible
Terrible.
I guess that was funny.
But this isn't bad, either.
It's like we're having a
secret conversation, huh?
It's like we're having a
secret conversation, huh?
It's fun.
It's awesome!
It's awesome!
Closed for the day.
I only ended up studying for an hour!
Wh-What do I do?
I can't just call it a day now.
Where else can we go to study?
The park?
No way.
The family restaurant?
What would I order?
The café?
How much is it going to cost?!
I've never even really been to one.
Crap, what do I do?
Hey, Umino-kun
Do you still have time?
Kickboxing / Karate
I'm ready.
Okay, should we start?
Wait a second
Where are we?
I've gotten into kickboxing lately.
I see
What is your goal, exactly?
I don't have one, really.
It's just a hobby.
I-I see.
You were staring at my breasts
just now, weren't you?
N-No! I wasn't! I wasn't!
Although I can't promise that I wasn't
Next time, I'll slap you.
Yes, ma'am!
Wait, you mean you'll let me
look if I let you slap me?!
Okay, Umino-kun, put these on.
There.
Ready whenever.
Okay, let's start with a light warmup.
Keep it coming.
Can you keep up with me
if I go all-out, Umino-kun?
I think you underestimate me, Segawa-san.
Sorry!
I took it too far.
I'll go get you a drink.
No, I'm all right
Segawa-san never ceases to impress me.
She really can do anything.
I can do this, too.
This is kinda fun.
Umino-kun, that was amazing!
Was it?
Yeah! Nice punch!
Give it another one.
Nah, I just came to watch.
That was pretty impressive for a first try.
Was it?
I wasn't counting on having that much fun.
Sorry to keep you out so late.
Thanks for coming along with me.
No, I should thank you.
I ended up having all the fun.
I'm glad you had fun.
N-No, I mean
I asked you out hoping to
take the lead this time.
I made you make all the decisions
at the amusement park.
That's not true.
I wanted to take you out.
I wanted you to get to know me better.
Well, I'm heading off.
Let's do this again.
226!
227!
228!
229!
230!
That's legit creepy.
231!
232!
Erika-chan, what's gotten into him?
233!
234!
Dunno.
235!
Idiot.
236!
I'm home.
Nagi-kun.
You're going on a date with me.
What?
Wow, that's great!
It looks so good on you.
Does it?
Will you be buying this, as well?
Yes. He'll wear it home.
Understood.
Thank you for your loyalty.
It's expensive, but does
it even look good on me?
Well, shall we?
Good for you.
You're lucky you have me to dress you up.
You finally get an upgrade
from your default house wear.
I like it. It's comfortable.
What?
Nothing.
What's going on, anyway?
What do you mean?
Why a date all of a sudden?
Oh, that
I thought it'd be nice for a change.
Huh?
To make an alibi for your parents, you mean?
It might be that.
Or it might not.
That's not an answer!
Let's see, our next date plan is
What is she scheming?
Good for you, Nagi-kun!
It really likes you.
How is this "liking" me?!
And why are we at a pet shop?!
I've had a thing for reptiles ever
since that gecko I met in the house.
I'd love to have a pet python, too, if I could.
You have plenty of those dog things already!
Dogs and snakes are cute in different ways.
Look, Nagi-kun!
This one's cute, too!
A king cobra!
It's looking right at you.
Maybe it likes you.
Excuse me! Could you please bring this one out?
Stop! Stop! Stop!
Reptile Club
No animals, either
Seriously, what?!
I know!
Come on, Nagi-kun! Hurry up!
Keep up with me!
What is her deal right now?
This isn't even a date anymore.
It's just training.
So strange
I thought this would work out well.
"Work out" how?!
I hate running!
I hate running, too.
So why are you acting so out of character?
Well, you like sports, don't you?
Do I look as if I like anything
other than studying?!
Really?
So why were you kickboxing, then?
I saw you.
On a date with Hiro-chan.
Huh?
S-So what?
What do you mean, "so what"?!
You had such a pervy smile, too.
No way! I did?!
You sure did!
A huge, pervy grin.
That's embarrassing.
You looked all skeevy and happy.
I have a crush on her. What do you expect?
That's what I hate.
You never smile at me.
I'm totally lost.
You were rooting for me
and Segawa-san until now.
That was that, and this is this!
Or it was what it was, I guess.
It was what?
I mean, hearing about Hiro-chan and
actually seeing her were totally different.
Huh?
Why are you getting so cozy
with another girl, anyway?
Aren't you enjoying your date with me?
You're my fiancé, aren't you?
Is that why she invited me out today?
Well?!
Wait, hang on a second.
Are you saying you saw me on a date
with Segawa-san and got jealous?
What do you mean, "jealous"?
Like, I mean
Do you like me?
What?!
Are you stupid?! No, you're definitely an idiot!
Idiot!
But it's true, isn't it?
You got pissed.
That's jealousy.
I mean, if I saw Segawa-san
on a date with someone else
Sorry I didn't notice.
No! No!
But I
You're wrong!
It's not that I like you!
Yet!
"Yet"?!
I'm going home!
Hey, wait!
Erika-chan, welcome home
Erika-chan?
What did she mean by "yet"?
Does that mean she's going
to like me eventually?
I think I like you, Nagi-kun.
What?
Why is my heart racing?
Do I like Amano-san?
No, that's impossible.
I already have Segawa-san.
Though why do I like Segawa-san
in the first place?
What a foolish question.
She's popular, cute, and smart.
More than anything,
she's my aspiration and my rival.
So it's fun being with her, and I admire her.
That's what it means to love someone.
Right?
What does "love" even mean?!
Love definition
[noun, verb]
- To be attracted.
- To find emotionally agreeable.
admire, adore
It doesn't really help just reading the words.
The internet's not going to help.
Umino-tei Diner
Thank you!
Thanks for dinner!
Night!
See you soon.
Hey, it's Nagi.
Hey, are you here to help?
No, I'm busy right now.
It's the first time we see him in ages,
and that's all he's got for us.
He's in his usual boar mode.
It's around here somewhere

What the heck?!
My gut tells me I'll be severely
injured if I touch it.
Letters?
To Namie-san
From Yohei
These aren't all letters
from Dad to Mom, are they?
What is this?
Dear Namie-san.
Dear Namie-chan,
No matter when I see you
You're adorable
A heartfelt haiku from Yohei
Dear Namie-san.

This is so
Hey, Nagi.
What are you up to?
The man himself!
Hey, that's
Namie-chan had it sealed up. You looked?
Uh, well, not exactly er
Gripping, isn't it?
I felt embarrassed for you, just reading it.
What?!
That's a lot of letters, though.
It is.
They're memories of love.
Memories?
Why are they all from you, though?
Well, because
Namie-chan was the popular girl
at the local girls' school.
The moment I saw her, I fell in love.
I immediately went on the offense.
Namie-san! Please accept my letter!
Please!
Another one?
I told you I'm not interested in you.
I'm begging you!
Oh, fine.
I'll take it.
You're so weird.
And here we are now.
So this mountain of letters
True love.
Is this how big of a deal
it is to fall in love?
Could I do the same thing
for Segawa-san, then?
Wait Could I?
No, I would, right?
What's the matter?
Are you having doubts about your love?
When that happens, you gotta ask your heart.
Your heart?
That's right. Close your eyes.
And picture in your mind
Who's the precious one calling your name?
Don't think! Feel!
Be quiet!
Well? Do you see anything?
Umino-kun.
Nagi-kun.
Onii.
That's your future bride.
Well?
You saw Erika-chan, didn't you?
I saw all three of them!
Anyway, your romance is just getting started.
Don't rush it so much.
What?
Idiot.
Umino Nagi
I don't like you, either.
Yet.
I guess I'll just leave it at that.
