Synopsis

The echo of Arata’s confession still hangs around Chihaya, a dreamy haze that makes focused study impossible. Kanade and Sumire, having inadvertently witnessed the scene, are now locked in a hushed argument about whether to inform Taichi. Amidst their deliberations, Chihaya receives a call from Sudo, who relays a challenge from a member of his own university’s karuta club – a request for a match.
