Rino's Diary
That was another fun day today!
Looks like spring has come for you, huh, Rino?
No, summer is right around the corner already!
Yeah, yeah. But you know, THAT is coming up before summer.
What do you mean, "that"?
You know, THAT.
Notification of Routine Examinations
That!
Ladies, I'm sure you already know this,
but the members of the Best Student Council
are expected to be role models to the other students of Miyagami.
So if you are to fail the routine exams, which are scheduled for next week...
We'll ask you to resign from the student council!
Resignation from the student council means you'll no longer be eligible
to stay in the Best Dormitory and be exempt from tuition and other fees.
Oh, but you don't have to be too worried about that.
According to information collected by the Covert Squad,
the exams aren't going to be too hard and you're not going to fail
unless something goes really wrong.
Question.
What's up, Kaori?
Something has gone really wrong to the person sitting next to me.
Rando.
Rando?
Um, I don't know what to do...
I'm dumb, so I don't know if I can do this...
Dumb Dumb
I'm dumb, so I don't know if I can do this...
Rino, are you that bad at studying?
For that, you have my guarantee!
You're crying now, but you should've just studied like you're supposed to!
This is what happens when you spending a lot of time, playing around with the president!
Not that it would have made a difference if she hadn't been playing around with her!
That bad?
It's like there are no words to comfort her.
No words to encourage her either.
Rino!
Rein...
You'll be fine! Don't worry! Just relax!
You're not the only dumb one here! I'm one step away from F, too!
Me, too.
S-T-U
P-I-D
S-T-U
P-I-D
We're dumb girls!
Yes!
Thank god, I'm not the only one!
Don't act like comrades in something like that!
I'm sorry, the Covert Squad didn't go so far as to investigate
the academic capabilities of student council members.
Then what do you think we should do?
Tell me.
Study your butts off, of course.
I agree.
It will hurt the reputation of Best Student Council
if three members resign at the same time.
Which means it will also hurt our reputations.
Isn't that right, Miss President?
Y-Yes...
So to protect the honor of Best Student Council,
we ask all of you to study very hard.
Impossible
But...
I don't have much confidence...
Impossible...
You have no choice.
O-Okay...
Roger...
Understood...
Wh-What's with your outfit?
I figured I should at least get the look down...
2x2=4, 2x3=6, 2x4=8...
How far back does she have to go? 2x2=4, 2x3=6, 2x4=8...
2 by 2, 2 by 4...
I don't even know where to begin with her... 2 by 2, 2 by 4...
I don't even know where to begin with her... 2 by 2...
This is pretty bad, Nanaho.
They're real idiots!
I'm bored of it, tired of it, done with it!
Rein, you're giving up too quickly!
It doesn't matter if you can do quadratic equations or functions.
It's all useless once you go into the workforce!
I believe that the school isn't the place to study, but the place to learn about people!

Tsunomoto, will you just study please?
Luckily, the only subject you're weak at is math.
If you resign from the student council,
you'll no longer be able to eat Maachi's homemade dishes.
Homemade Dishes
But still!
Oh, I know!
Rein, what do you say to making a little bet with me?
If you don't fail at the exams...
You'll get to have UNLIMITED SNACKS for a week!
Unlimited?!
Unlimited!
I'll do my best! I'm so doing this! I'll study!
Go, go, go, go! Snack, snack, snack, snack...
Nice going, Seina. That was some brilliant manipulation. Snack, snack, snack, snack...
Nice going, Seina. That was some brilliant manipulation. Hehehe, unlimited snacks!
It looks like Rein's going to be okay now. Hehehe, unlimited snacks!
It looks like Rein's going to be okay now.
Kuon, what subject is Cyndi weak at?
She has only one weak subject too, and that's English.
English?
I thought Cyndi's mother is an American. So why would she be weak at English?
She's gone.
Miss Vice President! Look outside!
What?
Cyndi, please do not take student council property without permission!
Looks like she's going to take that stolen bike for a spin.
That's some escape...
Don't stand there impressed! STOP HER!
Cyndi, if you run away again, we'll kick you out of the school before you even take the exams!
Roger. Unlimited!
The only one left is Rando... Unlimited!
This is great, Rino.
You've scored more than 80% in each subject from last year's exams!
Rino, you said you're not good at studying, but you were just being humble, weren't you?
You fooled us, Rino.
So that's it.
Yeah, that's it.
Kaori.
Y-Y-You can't do that! W-W-Without Pucchan, I'll be...
Rando, would you mind taking the same exams again?
Um... That's...
Take them, Rando.
O-Okay...
Rino
One point for English, two points for math, three points for science,
four points for social studies, five points for Japanese...
The scores line up rather nicely though, don't they?
Those scores are way too low...
It could almost be a kind of talent...
A surrogate test-taker, I thought that was a brilliant idea.
Hey, don't start talking on your own!
Kaori, keep the puppet until all the exams are over.
O-Okay!
What do we do now?
Given Rino's academic capabilities,
she's doomed to fail no matter how easy the exams are.
All right!
Sayuri!
You stay with Rein and help her with her studying!
Understood.
Mayura, you take care of Cyndi.
Oh, sure.
The rest of us will help Rando with her studying.
We have one week! Within a week, we'll make her square brain round!
Got it? Rando!
Yes!
Study with your life! Or, you know what's going to happen, right?
Yes!
Good morning, Izumi!
Hey, good morning!
Rino isn't here yet?
She's in another room right now doing some intensive studying.
If she fails the routine exams next week, she'll be kicked out of the student council.
What? Is that true?!
But with her academic capabilities, there's no way she'll pass the exams.
I agree.
But figuring out a way...
...is what the Best Student Council is all about!
Hey...
In tensive Studying in Progress
How's Tsunomoto doing?
She's doing very well.
Rein is very quick to pick up on things to begin with,
so she didn't have any problem we taught her the knack.
How about Cyndi?
We still have six days left.
If she can reduce her number of spelling mistakes,
she should be able to avoid failing the exams.
That's good to hear. Please look after those two.
We will.
Of course.
WHAT'S UP WITH THESE SCORES?!
What's up with these scores?!
Two points for English, three points for math, four points for science,
five points for social studies, six points for Japanese...
But the scores line up nicely, don't they?
We gave her a special all-day study session, but the results are so insignificant...
At this rate we'll have no choice but to make her study longer hours!
I agree.
Sounds good to me!
Why am I so hopeless?
At this rate, I won't be able to stay in the Best Student Council.
If that happens, I... I...
Good, you got about 80% correct.
Good job, Rein.
I tried to show my abilities and worked hard... or it was just a fluke?
It can't afford to be a fluke.
Spelling the same words repeatedly is the only way to cut down on misspellings.
Th-That was just a joke! Spelling the same words repeatedly is the only way to cut down on misspellings.
I'm the kind of girl who goes all the way once she decides to do it. Spelling the same words repeatedly is the only way to cut down on misspellings.
I'm the kind of girl who goes all the way once she decides to do it. It'll be an easy victory if you can stop misspelling things!
Then have some motivation from the get-go. It'll be an easy victory if you can stop misspelling things!
Then have some motivation from the get-go. Roger.
Repeat, repeat!
Roger.
Rein and Cyndi are doing great.
And you're the only one who's NOT doing great.
You're right.
Rando, this is no time to be laughing.
At this rate you'll be kicked out of the dormitory and end up all by yourself.
All by myself...
That'd be lonely.
I'll do my best!
What?
I'll do my best!
Okay.
That's the spirit! Good luck, Rino!
Yes!
Three points for English, four points for math, five points for science,
six points for social studies, seven points for Japanese...
The scores line up nicely, though.
It's going to take more than a can-do attitude to get her anywhere.
Just keep up with the special lessons for now!
O-Okay...
Miss Kanade...
Rino, don't push yourself too hard, okay?
You'll end up ruining your health before the exams.
Thank you so much.
But I'm dumb, so pushing myself too hard should be just enough.
Besides if I don't do at least that much, I'll be...
What?
Oh, nothing.
I'll study a little little longer, so don't mind me.
Please get some rest yourself.
Rino...
If you've got the time to be depressed, you're better off using it to write.
Yes... You're right.
Why?
No matter how many times I read it I don't learn anything!
Why is that?
It's been five days since she started the special lessons.
Rando's academic abilities show no sign of improvement,
even though we've been sacrificing our own time to help her,
time we should have used to prepare for our own exams!
Why does she have to be this dumb?!
We must come up with some kind of solution!
But we have only two days left until the exams.
There's not enough time at all.
I guess we have no choice.
We should go ahead and use the Covert Squad and alter Rando's grades...
Stop it, Kuon!
Do you think that would make the president happy?
No, I don't.
Well, we'll just have to tell Rino to do her best.
I guess.
Why?
Why? Why can't I memorize anything?
Mom...
I wonder if Rino's working hard.
Can you hear me, puppet?
I'm talking to you!
I'm not a puppet, my name is Pucchan!
That's not important!
Tell me how Rino Rando used to study before.
Don't tell me she was always this incompetent!
Honestly, she was never that bad.
So what's the cause?
Obviously it has a lot to do with the fact she's been doing nothing
but playing ever since she came to this school.
But most likely Rino can't stand the idea of being sad.
No matter how energetic she appears to be, she's still dwelling on her mother's death.
She knows what it means to be all alone.
She's afraid of getting kicked out of this school and being alone.
That's how much she enjoys being here.
She's not necessarily going to be by herself
even if she resigns from the student council though.
Remember that I told you Rino is dumb?
Anyhow, this is pretty unexpected. I always thought you hated Rino.
If you ask me whether I like her or hate her, I'd say I hate her.
But if she ever goes away from this school, most likely Kanade will be sad.
Besides, seeing her that way reminds me of stuff.
Reminds you of what?
How I used to be.
Izumi.
M-Miss President!
Thank you for working so late at night.
Oh, sure...
How's Rino doing? Is she working hard?
Actually, she's not doing that great.
So... I have a suggestion!
Izumi didn't come back after all...
I wonder if she's fed up with me.
I guess so...
Since I'm so dumb... I'm so dumb...
The lights are out...
No one's here... No one...
I...
Why...
Rando, today's special lesson has been canceled.
Restore your energy!
Party, party!
Rino, look! Maachi cooked all this for you!
Rino, come over here.
Rino.
Rando.
Rino.
I... I... I don't want to resign from the Best Student Council.
I don't want to be alone!
Rando, stop thinking about negative outcomes and being depressed all by yourself.
We're here for you.
It's no fun to study while being depressed anyway!
You won't learn anything that way.
So we all work together, okay?
Rino...
Rino, you're so silly.
I get that a lot.
But you know everyone admires you for who you are.
Can't you tell?
You're not alone.
Y-Yes...
Yes.
Okay, enough with the crying! No more! The end!
Let's party, guys!
Yeah, that sounds good.
Well, here's to great success for Rino Rando!
Cheers!
Rino!
Rando!
How did it go?
What are the results?
I, I'm sorry...
You guys helped me so much, and I thought I studied very hard, but...
Rino...
Even though I studied that hard, I barely made it...
English
Even though I studied that hard, I barely made it...
Barely?
You mean barely passed?
Hey, you didn't fail the exam!
Don't scare us like that!
But I barely made it...
Don't be greedy!
For your information, I made it, too!
Me, too.
Rino, keep it up for us!
Yes! I'll do my best!
Rino, I'm so impressed!
To think you improved so much in such a short time!
Rino Rando... The president's favorite...
Could it be?
Jeez, she's a handful.
What?
Remember how you told me that figuring out a way
is what the Best Student Council is all about?
Yup.
Will you return this puppet to Rino?
Huh?
I'm going home now.
Aren't you going to meet up with the student council?
I'm not that type.
She can be obnoxious, envious or stupid...
But...
I'm home!
Hey, sis!
Welcome back!
Sis, I'm hungry!
I know! I'm going to make something right now so be patient, okay?
Okay!
Dad, Mom...
I'm home.
Sis, is the food ready yet?
Food!
Okay, okay!
We're hungry!
