Detailed Summary[]

Hidenori, Yoshitake, Motoharu and another student are at Tadakuni’s house. They are all seated, except for Hidenori, who puts up a blank chart on the wall and reminds them that summer break has already begun. He then wonders out loud why they were all still in their uniforms (including him), but dismisses it, going on to say that all the ‘innocent ones’ were gathered together. All of a sudden, he begins yelling at the others for spending their vacation time with guys, asking them how they could be okay with that. He demands that Tadakuni answer. Tadakuni mutters that spending time with guys is fun, but Hidenori calls it a defeatist response. He further brands the boys ‘criminals’ for failing to get girlfriends, before pausing and saying it was time to discuss their summer plans.

Ch11 1

Everyone's had enough of Hidenori

This provokes angry responses from the others. When Hidenori says he was only trying to pump them up, they accuse him instead of killing their spirits and ask him to stop playing the leader. They ask him to call Karasawa instead, so Hidenori phones him and asks him to come over in uniform. When Karasawa shows up, the first thing he comments on is the ignominy of having to spend the vacation with guys, bringing out another round of emotional responses from them.

Just then, Tadakuni’s sister walks by. Hidenori stops her and asks her which one among the boys she would prefer to date, to which she says Karasawa. A gleeful Karasawa compliments her for her ‘great eyes’, while the others express shock at her choice. He then gestures to his lap, asking her to sit there. The infuriated sister marches over to him, saying she had misjudged him, and tries to attack him. Karasawa, in anguish, claims it was only a joke and tries to defend himself. The sister easily overpowers him and he yells in pain, while Tadakuni asks her not to bully him.

Ch11 2

Karasawa is attacked

Amidst the confusion, Hidenori asks the others once more why they were spending their holidays with guys. When they protest again, he asks them where they wanted to go during the summer. Yoshitake says they’re running out of time, and on Tadakuni's suggestion, they spontaneously decide on going to the beach.

Notes[]

  • The girl leaning on the Literary Girl in the cover bears some resemblance to Hidenori's neighbor, who is introduced much later in Chapter 48.
  • The unnamed smiling student bears some resemblance to Kugihiko.
