Wilhelmina, at a loss due to Shana's uncharacteristic behavior,
takes advice from Chigusa and attempts a home-cooked meal,
and unexpectedly manages to enjoy a bit of time with Shana as a family.
However, the hearts of Shana and Yoshida, shaken by Fumina,
have still not yet calmed.
You're late, Sakai-kun!
Sorry, sorry!
I'm being too concerned about Konoe-san?
You may say that, but just look at what she's like.
I can't just leave her alone either, can I?
I'm not saying that.
Just pay more attention to your surroundings...
In any case, you're being too concerned about her.
Ike?
Konoe-san.
Since Ogata-san will be accompanying you to school like this,
it's about time for me to stop...
Ahh, what are you saying, Sakai-kun.
Are you deciding to stop being her helper just like that?
Eh? Not at all...
In school, I'll of course still be helping like I am now.
See, it would be bad if I were late again like I was today...
Morning!
Yoshida-san... Maybe she actually did want to continue being a helper.
But...
Why is even Shana...
And she doesn't come to morning training...
Alright, go back to your seats.
Okay, it's a bit sudden, but tomorrow, we'll be having level-wide tests.
Wait a minute, Sensei, why?
I didn't hear about anything like that!
We can't tell how hard you studied
just from your summer homework, you see.
The tests will cover every subject's first-semester material.
As for the times of the tests...
Sheesh, this is no joke.
To actually spring surprise tests on us, that's just dirty.
That's just school for you.
In this situation, there's no use getting
all flustered and worried about it!
True... Alright, screw those tests.
Hey Ike-kun, I sort of have a request...
Can you help me out with studies?
If you teach me,
I think I'll be able to get a less horrible
grade, even with only one night's cramming.
Please!
Well, I don't mind, but...
Eh? One night's cramming? Which means...
Yup, an overnight study session.
And the place, hmm...Satou's house!
Huh?
Tanaka...Would you be interested?
Studying sure is necessary after all!
You...
A study session, huh?
Fine by me --
- - but only if all the usual members are coming.
Ah, of course, then I'll also come...
So, yeah...
I don't understand what you mean by so, yeah....
Why's there a need to get together to study?
That way, everyone can help each other
with parts they don't understand and such.
What do you think, Yoshida-san?
Um, okay.
Who's everyone?
Everyone is...just everyone.
Ike, Satou, Tanaka, Ogata-san,
plus Yoshida-san, and Shana, and me...
And?
Konoe-san.
What is it you are angry about?
Could it be the bacon and eggs I made this morning
It's not that.
Then...
I said it was nothing!
More importantly, take care of training please.
As I expected, it concerns that Mistes.
He came by here earlier.
Yuuji did?
He will be waiting for you at today's
study session, so he hopes you will come.
But that Mistes...Using a reason like
that to take a break from night training
how impudent of him.
Preposterous.
Leaving Sakai Yuuji's training to the Manipulator
of Ribbons and the Crown-and-Sash of Fantasies alone
may have reached its limit.
How long more do you intend to be stubborn?
But I don't know what I should do.
Please, Ane-san!
Translation note: Ane-san literally means elder sister.
Just for today, or even just tonight, that's all!
So annoying...Why do I have to go out tonight, huh, what for...
As we said, just for today, our classmates are...
Hey, Sakai, you beg her too!
She's sleeping, after all...We shouldn't be trying to wake her.
If she doesn't wake up soon, it's going to be a headache, you know.
And if she happens to run into Oga-chan...
E-Er, nah.
No need to worry, you two!
If my bottomless liquor barrel, Margery Daw, has gotten herself this drunk,
even if a Tomogara got on her ass
So she can respond to Marchosias even while she's sleeping.
Crap, we're out of time.
Now we're in this situation, we'll just have to trust our luck.
Yo! You guys came together?
Yoshida-san! That's...?
I'm in charge of food tonight.
Since, well, we'll probably get hungry if we study till late.
I said I'd also help out, you know.
But Ike-kun said...
If you don't study, you'll be getting your priorities backwards.
Yeah, she did come up with the idea after all.
Yoshida-san's excellent at studies, and cooking's also her strong point,
while Oga-chan is...
Tanaka!
Um, is the kitchen this way?
You came after all.
I heard it was impressive,
but I didn't expect it to this extent...
I don't really take compliments well, you know.
Anyway, how's this temperature with everyone?
Ah, go ahead and drink as much you like.
Alright, that's all we have in our environment.
There's no way we won't make progress here.
Okay, let's give it all we got, shall we?
Alright!
Right, that's it, so you need to simplify it further...
Then use this formula here...
This needs the result from earlier. Try using it.
I'm getting more and more confused!
Mm. It's done.
Did Kazumi really make all of this alone?!
There's more rice and miso soup too.
Itadakimasu!
This is great! Yoshida-san, this fried stuff is seriously amazing!
This omelet rice is also...wait, how can it be this delicious?
Sakai, is this what you've been eating all this time?
You lucky ass!
H-How is it, Shana-chan?
Mm. It's good.
Is the food okay for you?
Yes, I'm fine.
It was totally delicious.
Next time, show me how to do it too.
Ogata-san, I'm really fine doing the washing myself...
Oh come on, you just cooked a great meal for us.
I really should help you with the dishes at least.
But there's a dishwasher here...
That sort of machine is a little temperamental.
If a problem happens while it's working, water will gush out.
First, can you turn on the power?
{TLC}Now let's just leave it to do its thing.
Hey, we've been together since junior high school, right?
We used to come over to play a lot. And Tanaka, too.
It sure was nice being so carefree back then.
Wa...Water!
Margery-san!
Kazumi?
Why're you here...?
Who're...you?
Why does father go after even though child is the subject?
That's just how the sentence is. Just read it according to the normal rules.
Then, how about the last man?
It's linked to the of the before.
But, why the hell is it like that...?
Oi, Satou! Get off the couch and start studying!
Just ate, need to sleep...
Sheesh, it sure is hopeless, huh.
Come to think of it, Yoshida-san and Ogata-san sure are taking their time.
Don't worry, since Oga-chan's there, they won't get lost or anything.
But it's already been half an hour, you know.
Um...Konoe-san, where are you...
I'm going to take a look.
Don't worry, I'll do it.
If they're still cleaning up, I want to
help out as thanks for the delicious food.
I see. In that case, I'll come along.
I'll go.
Yuuji will study.
Uh...Um...
Leaving you with Yuuji alone...I won't allow it.
This is strange.
There's no reason Yoshida Kazumi would abandon the job halfway.
What are you doing?
I'll wash up for them.
Do what you want.
You've never done stuff like washing dishes before, have you?
You do it like this
F-For washing dishes, you pour detergent onto the sponge like this...
If your hands are dirty, clean them with some paper towel...
So? What business did Omega-chan have with me?
It's Ogata! Ogata Madake!
Japanese names sure are hard to remember.
Kazumi! Don't you know her?
Eh? Uh...Mm.
What's with her? How can she be here acting like it's her house?
That's...
My name is Margery Daw.
Who I am...you don't need to know.
What are you to Tanaka?
Ogata-san.
Huh? Uh -- no, I mean...
Oh, so it's something like that, huh.
Something like that?
I saw it! You and Tanaka having fun during the Misago Festival.
But Keisaku was there too, wasn't he.
No need to worry, I don't have that sort of relationship with those two.
I'm only in town for my job.
I'm here because I was looking for a
roost and Keisaku said I could stay here.
The two of them help me with my work sometimes,
but that's as far as it goes.
But...
Well, it does seem like the two of them seem to feel something towards me.
However, it's certainly not love.
Those fellows are far too innocent.
It's got nothing to do with love or passion.
It's just an innocent yearning.
Or in other words, a childish crush.
Understand?
Still, to get a cute girl like you,
Eita must be quite the smooth operator.
U-Um, I, I'm very sorry!
It's fine.
Jealousy's always right next to love.
Love is like a mirror that reflects the ugly parts of yourself.
Especially when it's one-sided...
Jealousy, jaundice and envy.
But that's exactly how you can come to terms with every possible feeling.
Margery-san...
However, it's nothing to feel ashamed about.
Because it's exactly the proof that you're serious.
I know, want me to teach you how to smash that mirror?
It's not particularly hard, you know?
You need your feelings to truly reach the guy. That's all.
Don't allow a misunderstanding -- that's what's important.
Do your best, young ladies.
Well? It's just been us guys doing nothing for a whole ten minutes!
Say what you will, they really are late. Should I go check?
Just leave them be. They may be having fun doing girl stuff.
Well, maybe.
It's fine, isn't it? Just us guys hanging out.
Just a normal bunch of guys being normal...
How long will this last?
It's just like Satou said.
I'd decided I was going to leave this town at some point,
but now...
But now, this time I'm enjoying is so...
Hey, hey, why is everyone suddenly getting so solemn?
Shana!
Konoe-san!
Ooops.
Oga-chan, didn't you show them how to use it?
But anyway, why is it just those two?
Don't bug me, stuff happened.
Yuuji! D-Do something!
Hold on!
Are you okay, Shana?
M-Mm...
How'd it end up like this?
T-This girl just went and...
I'm sorry, it was my first time...
Really...When I heard the princess scream,
I was wondering what the heck happened.
It's fine, isn't it? Konoe-san's laughing.
Although it was probably more of a disaster for Shana-chan, eh?
The young ladies look a lot less burdened, don't they?
Well, I did try to give them advice that fit their situation.
Ahhh, I see, I see.
It wasn't just several hundred years of mere travels...
Oww!
Shut up already, idiot Marcho!
Total annihilation.
Well, we didn't actually get any studying done.
Don't make those faces.
The fruits of our study session aren't just in our test results.
After last night, Yoshida-san and Shana-chan
seem to have finally opened up to Konoe-san.
About that, they've gone to the roof again...
They said they had something to do.
They'll be right back, so go ahead and start eating first, they said.
The Composer of Elegies said that?
She said that having your feelings
truly reach the person is most important.
When the love is one-sided, you'll keep
having to face the ugly parts of yourself.
But that's just what love is, so you shouldn't feel embarrassed.
That's how Margery-san put it.
Why are you telling me this?
Because I thought it would be dishonest not to pass it on you.
Because I don't want more ugly parts in myself any more.
Reaching across with your feelings...
Because I was keeping my feelings from reaching Yuuji...
Even about Konoe Fumina, right up till now...
Let's go, Shana-chan!
I'm hungry!
Right then.
I will be more unsparing in proportion to your carelessness last night.
C-Carelessness...Explain the reason properly
We are beginning.
Be prepared.
Wilhelmina.
Shana.
Is this enough?
I'll check.
How much Yuuji has learnt from Wilhelmina.
Welcome back...Shana.
I want to reach across to him...to Yuuji.
About Yuuji, I...
But, it's not just that...
I want to be sure about Yuuji's feelings.
So, once again, to Yuuji, and with Yuuji,
I'm going!
Ike Hayato harbors hidden feelings for Yoshida.
