Wataru Sajō has been continually rejected by Aika Natsukawa, a beautiful girl in his class.

Wataru is passionately in love with classmate Aika and confesses to her often despite her rejections. One day, he is nearly hit in the head with a ball and that brief moment of fear causes him to realize his own behavior; thus he decides to begin distancing himself from Aika. His abrupt personality shift shocks everyone, including Aika, who is unused to him ignoring her. A girl named Rena begins interacting with him causing Aika to act jealous. Rena has recently broken up with her boyfriend Kazuki and is trying to punish him by becoming close to Wataru. Wataru reveals he was brutally rejected by a girl in middle school and met Aika immediately after who treated him with kindness, causing him to fall in love. Having been rejected so many times, he has decided to finally leave her alone. Rena understands and reconciles with Kazuki. Aika is confused Wataru continues to avoid her and visits his house to discover why, but is not satisfied with his claim of reforming his stalker-like behavior, and when he insists they are now only classmates, she yells at him and runs home upset. The next day, Aika’s friend Kei points out to a guilty Wataru that years of him hanging around prevented Aika from making many friends, and without Wataru, she is actually lonely.
2"For You. It's a Spare Triangle Chocolate Pie"

Hodaka KuramotoMichiko YokoteHodaka KuramotoJuly 11, 2023 (2023-07-11)
Wataru decides to distance himself even more so Aika can make more friends. Shinomiya, president of Public Morals Committee, approaches Wataru to praise an interaction he recently had with committee member Inatomi in which he apologized for scaring her due to her phobia of men. She asks his advice on boosting the committee's spirits as they are often disheartened. Wataru assures her any support she gives will suffice as being willing to offer support is more important than the support itself. Not wanting to attract trouble he falsely claims his name is Yamazaki, though this backfires when Shinomiya meets the real Yamazaki. Wataru apologizes, explaining the thought of the Morality President knowing his name might cause him some trouble. Shinomiya forgives him when Inatomi is able to thank him for his apology and promise to overcome her phobia. Aika begins to spend time with other girls. Wataru's sister Kaede coerces him into helping with her student council paperwork. Shinomiya successfully offers Inatomi her support. Aika invites her new friends to her house, then she unwittingly forbids Wataru and tries to properly invite Wataru, but loses her nerve when Shinomiya accidentally interrupts. After a frank discussion about Inatomi's attempt to conquer her phobia, Shinomiya realizes Wataru might be an expert at reading people. Wataru ends up not coming over at Aika's house, as all of Aika's friends come over to see her little sister. She secretly becomes unnerved at Wataru's distant from her.
3"Could You Not Call the Summer Uniform, Scanty Clothing?"
Transliteration: "Natsufuku o Usugi tte Iu no Yamete Kunnai?" (Japanese: 夏服を薄着って言うのやめてくんない?)
Masateru NomiSaori KanayaHiroyuki ShimazuJuly 18, 2023 (2023-07-18)
Wataru maintains his distance from Aika, even though the girls have now switched to summer uniforms and Kei tells him that Aika's now popular with the students, but he insists on keeping his distance so she could make friends, much to Kei's annoyance. Wataru notices he hasn’t actually seen Kaede since the weekend. Yamazaki forces Wataru to socialize with other female classmates, including the foul-mouthed Koga. Aika jealously pulls him into an empty classroom to yell at him, but as this would mean admitting to being jealous, she leaves instead without saying anything, confusing him. Student council president Hayato reveals to Wataru that Kaede is privately very worried about his new personality and believes it might somehow be her fault for mistreating him. Wataru assures Kaede his change was his choice so there is no need to worry or change how she treats him as he is accustomed to her petty torments and finds it strange she would suddenly show concern for him. An eavesdropping Aika interrupts to force him to apologize for being cruel to Kaede, but accidentally reveals that she was worried enough to follow him, becoming embarrassed in the process, so she runs away again, confused by her own actions and feelings. Wataru is likewise confused even more, unsure what to make of Aika's actions. Feeling better, Kaede returns to normal, provokes an argument, and beats Wataru up as usual.
4"Dark Brown? That Kind of Has a Cool Ring to It"
Transliteration: "Dāku Buraun? Nanka Kakkoii Hibiki da na" (Japanese: ダークブラウン?なんかカッコ良い響きだな)
Tatsuya FujinakaSaori KanayaTatsuya FujinakaJuly 25, 2023 (2023-07-25)
Since confronting him at the school roof, Aika continues to be confused over missing Wataru. Kei suggests since Wataru has been chasing her all this time maybe it’s time Aika chased after him, but she brushes that off. Encountering the morals committee again, Wataru meets Inatomi’s friend Aya, who angrily mistrusts all men, especially around Inatomi. Wataru notices Inatomi is more confident, which Shinomiya thanks him for as it was caused by her interacting with him and fearing men less. Wataru's classmate Taakaki has a crush on Aika and hopes to confess to her. Wataru acts unconcerned and plans not to interfere but has mixed feelings. Later, Aika almost asks Wataru to sit together during lunch but becomes awkward after learning he previously sat with Shinomiya. Instead, she tells him to dye his hair as he has lazily let it grow out and his roots are showing. Later, Kaede takes sadistic pleasure in helping him dye it. Wataru does badly in his exams and he realizes competing to be as good as Aika helped him study, so his usual motivation has decreased without her. Aika actually improves dramatically, which he concludes is because he stopped distracting her. Wataru regains his motivation after realizing even Taakaki scored higher than him.
