This episode is a recap of episodes 1 through 15 narrated by the tiny men Pin sees.

Sawako stayed up late making chocolate for her friends...and for Kazehaya. When she sees him receiving chocolates from others as obligatory "thank-you" gifts, she is worried hers would be seen the same way. Kurumi taunts her, and Sawako hesitates.

New rumors are circulating! Apparently, making Sawako laugh gives you good luck! Kazehaya's old friend Kurumi begins to get involved in things. Sawako and Kazehaya grow closer.

Kurumi decides to become friends with Sawako in order to get closer to Kazehaya, herself. Ayane and Chizuru are suspicious of this eternally-cheerful girl.

Sawako finds herself unable to avoid Kurumi, who pops up around every corner to offer support or ask for something. An unfamiliar feeling surrounds Sawako and Kazehaya, who grow too flustered to speak with one another like they used to.

The girls confront Kurumi, who has done everything in her power to pull Kazehaya away from Sawako and toward herself. Despite admitting to it all, Sawako forgives Kurumi and continues to treat her like a friend.

Kuronuma Sawako is often misunderstood and feared by others for resembling a horror movie character. She enters her new high school hoping that she can make new friends. Her chance comes when she volunteers to be a ghost for a school activity.

Rumors are circulating about Sawako's friends, Ayane and Chizuru. It is said that Sawako started these rumors, but she is unaware that anything is going on at all. When approached about it, Sawako hesitates in her response.

Kurumi has told Sawako her big secret, but Sawako apologizes and says that she cannot help. Kurumi reveals her true colors, but Sawako remains undeterred and promises to remain her friend.

Ever since Valentine's Day, a palpable rift has formed between Sawako and Kazehaya. Neither seem entirely sure why it is there, but they have trouble communicating as openly as they had been. Ayane and Chizuru try to intervene, but...

Kazehaya confides in Ryuu, while a new boy in class begins to flirt openly with Sawako. Realizing that such a pretty girl could get scooped up by another boy, Kazehaya tries to confront her as well as Kento.

Kazehaya and Sawako grow closer together and end up performing some classroom chores together after school.

The misunderstanding builds as both Kazehaya and Sawako believe they rejected one another's confessions. Sawako seeks comfort in Kurumi, who tells her that she didn't even put up a fight for Kazehaya. These words resonate deeply inside Sawako.

Sawako finds a lost puppy and Kazehaya decides to take him in. The class seats are shuffled and Sawako learns that she might have more friends than she first thought.

The group is plagued by questions. Did Sawako start these rumors? Why would she do that? Who could really be responsible? No answers are in sight and Sawako shrinks back into her old ways-quiet and alone.

During a school event, Sawako finds a mysterious note in her shoe locker. Apparently, Ryuu has something to admit to her. Kurumi and Kazehaya intervene with the worst possible timing for Sawako...

With the new year approaching, the group makes some plans to visit a local shrine together. New Year's Day also happens to be Sawako's birthday, so to celebrate, Chizuru and Ayane prepare a makeover session for Sawako in order to floor Kazehaya.

Sawako's friends have words with Kazehaya, who seems to be making every wrong move. He is told that he is the "farthest away" from Sawako, and that he should lay off her or else other girls will grow jealous. Ayane gives Sawako some valuable advice.

Sawako is invited to hang out with friends for the first time ever. She meets up with Ayane and Chizuru, and then spend some time at Ryuu's place. Kazehaya is invited over and everyone has a wonderful time.

Bolstered by the resolve shown by Sawako, Kurumi thinks about her past with Kazehaya and decides on her future. She faces Kazehaya, swallows her fear, and tells him the truth...

Sawako begins to piece together that she may be the one pushing Kazehaya away. Chizuru gets a makeover for Tooru's wedding. Kento makes a surprising confession.

Kurumi's ultimate plan backfires, as Kazehaya pulls Sawako away in private when he finds her alone with Ryuu. The misunderstanding is cleared up instantly, but the feelings stirring within both Sawako and Kazehaya only get more confusing.

Sawako joins Chizuru on a shopping trip where Chizuru buys an out-of-character feminine outfit. When asked, she talks about the boy she likes. Sawako, thinking it is Ryuu, gives her some advice. But the truth is a bit more complicated...

Both Sawako and Ayane are at a loss. How can they console their friend? Kazehaya says that doing nothing is the best thing, but is he right? How can Ryuu and Chizuru make up after such a bitter argument?

The date continues at the shrine. Sawako and Kazehaya begin to tell one another about their past, about themselves, and about many other things. After their first year of knowing one another, Sawako is certain what she feels is love.
