Episode 9 Story

Hinata Haru, a member of the girls’ track and field team at the same high school, is revealed to be “Haru,” the childhood friend Yonosuke Sakai and the others used to play with in elementary school. The group is stunned by the discovery. In fact, all three of them had always assumed that Haru was a boy.

Now grown into a more mature and sophisticated young woman, Haru leaves Yonosuke flustered and unable to keep his composure.

On the night of the fireworks festival, Haru reveals that she had been watching the three of them.

“So, which one will you choose, Yonosuke?” she asks, leaving him at a loss for words.

With the arrival of a fourth childhood friend, the romantic comedy stakes rise even higher.

Introduction

Yonosuke Sakai, a first-year high school student known as “Eiyu.” No girlfriend.

He is completely obsessed with romantic comedies, especially “childhood-friend rom-coms.”

Eiyu’s biggest problem right now is that his childhood friends, Shio and Akari, are just too cute!
But E-Yu knows the truth… “Real-life childhood friends never turn into a rom-com.”

And yet! The feelings of Shio and Akari themselves are actually directed toward Eiyu…!?

Every heroine is a childhood friend! Frustrating, agonizing, but heart-racing all the same!

The “hottest childhood-friend rom-com” begins!
