Yoh's worried that a freshman seems to have the hots for Haruna, but Haruna is as oblivious as ever. So when the boy in question makes a move on Haruna, how will she respond? More importantly, how will Yoh react?

The school sports festival is coming up, so everyone's gearing up for some fierce competition! Even affairs of the heart become a competitive event when Yoh suspects his friend Asaoka may truly have feelings for Haruna...

Friendship and love are put to the test when Asaoka reveals to Yoh that he likes Haruna. To settle things once and for all, Yoh and Asaoka strike a deal--whoever loses the school sports meet will give up his feelings for her! Who will win the meet and Haruna's heart?

Haruna becomes worried when she sees Yoh hanging out with an unattractive classmate. (Yoh does seem to have strange taste in women after all...) She has good reason for feeling uneasy--it looks like this girl really does want to sabotage their relationship!

For Yoh's birthday, Haruna makes plans for the two of them to go on an overnight trip. Wait a minute... Overnight means...they'll be sharing a room?! Close quarters create an intimate setting for romance, but will that be the case for Haruna and Yoh?

After blindly following the advice of fashion magazines and the like, Haruna fails to win the eye of any guy. Convinced that a coach is needed (just like when she trained for softball), she recruits cute upperclassman Yoh Komiyama to instruct her on how to make herself more appealing. Yoh agrees, with one catch: Haruna had better not fall for him!

Yoh faces a difficult choice: should he go to university all the way in Tokyo or stay near Haruna? Haruna wants to support Yoh's decision no matter what, but will her high school romance end with his graduation?
