Last Day of
the First Term
I've been waiting for this day!
Report Card
Year Ranking (Overall)
1st out of 242 students
Amazing!
Not that I didn't already know.
It's been a month since the
day I fell to 13th place.
13th
I crawled through the pits of
hell, struggling to get out.
And
I rose up, like the phoenix!
I've obtained wings of flames.
I fear nothing!
I rise in altitude as the
wings continue blazing.
I no longer even see the surface!
This story will surely be passed
down through generations.
Umino Nagi: Legend of the Phoenix!
This is unacceptable, Mr. Umino.
Turning the tables at this point
isn't rom-com material.
What about the Legend of the Phoenix?!
What rank were you?
What about you?
You tell me first.
Are they not even betting anymore?
But I'm riding a huge wave right now.
Segawa-san
I'm never giving you the number one rank again!
Year Ranking (Overall)
2nd out of 242 students
To Umino-kun
There it is.
Umino-kun,
I'll be waiting for you on the rooftop!
From Segawa Hiro
Umino Nagi-kun
You're going down!
She's going to do that to me again.
I mean, I don't hate being scolded by her.
That aside, I need to tell her straight, too.
I'm not losing to you anymore!
So please go out with me!
Okay.
It's set.
Master
You're going in for the kill!
First off, Umino-kun,
congratulations on ranking first.
You made it all the way back up from 13th.
You revived like a phoenix.
Phoenix? Nah
It's not that big a deal.
You're denying it?
I feel like something clicked for
me during those exams, though.
I felt like I could keep rising forever.
Kinda like the runner's high that
marathon runners talk about.
I know what you mean.
So, um
I won, as promised!
And I'm never going to lose again!
So please go out with me!
Here it comes.
Wait
You're going to process my—
I won't.
I mean, we don't know yet, do we?
Still, this made me feel
like fate's finally changing.
I can do it!
I'll change it!
How did it end up like this?
I wish it was you that I was
engaged to, Umino-kun.
This is next level!
I don't get how girls' minds work!
Man
What do I do?
Wow.
You were 167th on the last exam?
I'm up 80 places since last time.
Boy, I'm really stuck.
What am I supposed to do?
I feel like I could study forever right now.
Kinda like a runner's high?
Damn.
Oh, no!
Onii, shut up!
But you see
Segawa-san confessed to me.
No way! Seriously?
Details.
Oh, no!
So that's what happened.
Oh, crap! Nagi-kun's hit his stride!
No way. You're taking him too seriously.
But it's true.
I wish it was you that I was
engaged to," she said.
I think you've got the wrong idea.
She hasn't even said
anything about liking you.
Non, non.
You don't want to just come out and say it.
That doesn't make sense.
Sure it does!
Sheesh.
How am I supposed to spend my
summer with this weighing on me?
All right, then.
Now that we're on summer break,
we have plenty of time.
Let's go investigate what Hiro-chan said!
Huh?
Go where?
The beach!
Is that
Don't tell me Another holiday house?
Yes.
This one even has a private beach.
A private beach!
How about we go there to find out
what Hiro-chan really thinks?
Sounds good.
How many holiday houses do you have, anyway?
Dunno.
That's silly.
I'm not going.
It's finally summer break.
Why wouldn't I be studying?
Seriously, Nagi-kun?
You're insane.
He's like this every summer.
First of all, someone as
studious as Segawa-san
has no reason to be goofing
around at a holiday home!
She's coming.
Wanna go to the beach next week!?
My holiday house!
It has a private beach!
Nagi-kun and Sachi-chan are coming!
Segawa Hiro
I'm in!
I'm in!
I'll be there!
I mean, you don't need to be there
for us to find out, Nagi-kun.
I'll do anything, whether it's carrying
bags or scouting out the location!
Segawa-san in swimwear!
Ew.
Okay, then, it's settled.
We're going supply shopping tomorrow!
All right!
I'll stay home if you're going shopping.
New Mathematics 3
I have to study tomorrow so
I can go to the holiday house.
You're finally starting to sound
like an entrance exam student.
Shut up, Onii. Get over yourself.
Summer Break Corner
That should do it, I think.
Nagi-kun, could you carry this to the cashier?
Pine Plywood
Planks
We need more.
Let's buy this!
What's the stick for?
For cracking watermelons.
Huh?
You were just thinking
we don't need it, weren't you?
Believe it or not, it's not easy to find
the perfect stick just lying around.
I see.
That's a buy.
Let's buy two just in case.
Beach!
Rivers!
Mountains!
Leisure!
Next, we have this.
There's more?!
What do you say?
A trident?!
What would we even use that for?
It's a private beach we're going to, correct?
That's right.
No one can get in from outside.
Which means the opposite is also true!
What if something happens and we're
trapped in the leisure house?
We'll have to find our own food!
That's a buy!
Thank you very much.
I'll buy two of these, too.
Oh, in that case,
we'll need to buy sunscreen, too.
In that case
I recommend the spray type.
Non, non, Nagi-kun.
You always want the cream type sunscreen.
After all, you might get to
rub some on Hiro-chan.
No! No!
What if I put some on her and
she ends up with an uneven tan?!
That's a weird thing to feel responsible for.
Camping Section
Fine, let's get the spray type.
I'll buy both just in case.
Seriously?
Buses are so slow.
I can't believe we have to
wait another ten minutes.
Should I search for a taxi?
I'm kinda surprised, though.
I didn't think you'd know
so much about beach trips.
I guess I do.
I used to go with my family a lot.
Really?
The beach is free, after all.
Onii-chan, let's go!
Oh, so that's why.
I envy you, though.
Going with Papa Yohei and Mama Namie
and Sachi-chan sounds like fun.
What about me?
I thought you enjoyed your private beach.
I always just walked
along the shore by myself.
I'd sneak out of the hotel.
Are you sure that isn't why
they put a GPS tracker on you?
I can't wait.
All of us at the beach together
There's the bus.
Could you take us to this address?
It's not a taxi, you know!
So cramped.
Well, it is a bus.
Hey, give me some space!
We're on a curve. I can't help it.
About the two of us
Hiro-chan knows we're engaged now.
But we have to make sure she doesn't
find out we're living together, huh?
I don't want to keep secrets
from Segawa-san, though.
You're so silly.
I think she'll really look
down on us if she finds out.
She might never talk to us again.
Besides, it's a secret between you and me.
Y-Yeah.
I told you to stop crowding me!
It's a curve!
Oh, to be young
On the count of three, Nagi-kun.
All right.
Let's surprise Sachi.
One, two
Aloha!
Aloha.
Hey, I'm visiting.
Huh?
Why?
I invited her.
I never knew you two lived together.
I thought something was weird.
You two always smelled
like the same shampoo.
Um
This is, um
Why are you using my shampoo?!
It was a financial decision
Is that important right now?!
It's not like that, Hiro-chan.
My dad made us do this!
It seems like you're enjoying it, though.
I always had a hunch,
since you're engaged and all.
Did she know this whole time?
This is
going to be a mess of a vacation.
It's the beach!
Ooh, cold!
The sand is so smooth.
There are little fish here. Look.
Oh, yeah!
So cute!
That's cold!
D-Don't barge into my line of sight like that!
I can totally tell you're catching glimpses.
Just wanted to let you know you're creepy.
You're defiling your appreciation of books.
Don't be dumb.
Reading on the beach is awesome.
Also, don't wear your school
swimsuit to the beach.
What else could I do?
It's the only one I have.
Where did you even get
those lame swim trunks?
Don't you mean "badass swim trunks"?
Are you serious?
Anyway, there's something I
want to talk to you about.
What?
Why did you tell Segawa-san
that we're living together?
So she would help me study.
My first term finals turned
out worse than I thought.
So I asked Hiro-san to tutor me.
You could have told me.
Hiro-san's better at teaching than you are.
Besides, I don't want you teaching me.
What is that supposed to mean?!
Hiro-san was happy to help.
Besides, don't you want
Hiro-san to come over?
Th-That's not the point!
Sachi-chan!
Coming!
Jeez.
I never asked for this.
That's right
This is supposed to be a fun vacation
to determine the true meaning
behind Segawa-san's confession.
Come on, Nagi-kun.
Beach volleyball!
I can tell, though.
Segawa-san's kind of avoiding me!
If things were normal, I'd be putting
sunscreen on her right about now.
How did this turn into a repentance tour?!
I'll team up with Hiro-san, then.
I'm with Nagi-kun?!
It's game over!
I mean
I guess it's my fault for hiding my motives.
Want me to talk to Hiro-chan?
Why?
Well, it's Dad's fault to begin with.
Here I go!
He's my dad, too, remember?
Nagi-kun!
Onii's so distracted.
Something on his mind, maybe?
Whatever. I'll talk to her myself.
O-Okay.
So, what did you want to talk about?
You know, don't you?
A-About us living together
Ah.
About how you were hiding things from me.
I am deeply sorry for this incident!
There is a very complicated
family reason behind this!
Oh?
I was half-forced to live with her.
It wasn't that I enjoyed living
with her necessarily entirely
Wait
So you could have left
whenever you wanted, right?
Yes, that is correct.
So you were living under the
same roof as Erika-chan
when we went on a date together, too?
Yes! I'm sorry!
You eat together every day, and you've
peeked at her in the shower and stuff.
Yes! I'm sorry!
You were flirting with her
every day after school.
Yes! I'm sorry!
No, I haven't done that.
But you've been living with
her because it's fun, right?
I'm having so much fun every day.
Yes.
We said no secrets.
You said "of course" when we
talked about that, didn't you?
Sorry.
We had a few study sessions after that.
And we went on dates.
You had plenty of chances to tell me.
You are absolutely correct!
I'm just messing.
But it really did hurt that much.
I even thought about not coming today.
So you see, Umino-kun
Why my hair?
Do it again, and I'll put a curse on you.
She said what?! Creepy!
Nah.
That's just how deep our bond is.
Hiro-chan's not the scheming type, though.
I'm pretty sure it was just a bad joke.
Anyway, I'm glad she forgave you.
I was about to lose a precious friend.
Hiro-chan does have feelings
for you, then, huh?
Right?
Nah, that can't be it.
She obviously just sees you as a rival.
Oh, is the bath free?
I'm using it next.
What makes you say that?
What else would it be?
Is there even anything about you
that a girl would like?
Speaking of liking, Segawa-san told me
What?
So anyway, Umino-kun
About Sachi-san
Sachi, do you
have a crush on me?
What the hell?!
Ow, ow!
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
Onii, you idiot!
