Arima and Yukino lead very similar lives despite their differences... but how will their bond stand against the test of time? While Yukino feels as if she's been liberated of her guise of perfection.

Hearing from her friends that Arima has changed a lot over the summer, Yukino bemoans over the fact that she hasn't changed at all and that she can't seem to get her feelings sorted well when it comes to him.

Kano's been feeling a strange presence lately... as if someone is following her. Mysterious phone calls... flowers from an anonymous admirer...

The final episode. As tensions rise over Arima's jealous and over-protective nature, Tonami begins to realize that his desire to get Tsubaki to notice him was one born out of an emotion different from hate.
