After learning several new things about Carol (voiced by Sally Amaki) in Episode 5, fans were also treated to some serious alone time between Tomo (Rie Takahashi) and Jun (Kaito Ishikawa). It’s clear they’re still trying to figure out where the lines between friendship and romance, which is surely hard for them but fun for viewers to watch. However, at the end of the episode, things were feeling a bit weird between the pair. Here’s hoping it doesn’t take them long to figure it out.
- Carol invites Tomo and Misuzu to hang out on their next day off. They show up to a large house, where Carol’s mother invites them inside. Carol hugs Tomo and attempts to do the same to Misuzu, who refuses.
- Misuzu leaves to use the bathroom, running into Caorl’s mom, who tells her that she did not like the way Misuzu was treating Carol earlier. She wonders if Misuzu is a mean girl but quickly begins giggling when Misuzu tries to pretend she’s only friends with Carol for her money.
- Tomo freaks out when she realizes she forgot midterms. Jun offers to be Tomo’s tutor, but Misuzu says she will take over.
- After a brief introduction to Misuzu’s mother, who seems very similar to her daughter, they head to Misuzu’s room to study.
- While studying, Carol reveals that she is actually quite talented when it comes to math. After taking their tests, Tomo ranks higher than she ever has, while Carol ranks number one, even above Misuzu.
- Jun tells Tomo he bought a game he thought she might like to play. He invites her to spend the night, and she agrees. Later, Tomo considers telling Jun no, but Misuzu and Carol won’t let her.
- Tomo shows up at Jun’s house, and he tells her that they are alone for the night. Things alternate between uncomfortable and normal until they actually start gaming.
- They game and tease one another when Jun finds himself in a compromising position above Tomo. Both flustered, they return to gaming before realizing it is getting late. They attempt to stay up later but soon grow tired and decide to go to bed.
- Jun begins to ask Tomo a question about them but falls asleep before he can finish. Tomo begins pinching his face.
- Still asleep, Jun grabs her and pulls her into his arms. They end up sleeping in that position throughout the night.
- Jun finds himself quite flustered when he wakes up, as does Tomo when she remembers what happened.
- Tomo ends the episode by saying things were weird between them after that, and remained that way for about a week.

Predictions
While neither of my previous predictions came true, this week gave us an interesting cliffhanger to work with. The relationship between Tomo and Jun is on the line, which could very well carry into next week’s episode.
- With Tomo saying things were weird between her and Jun for a week, I could see this episode focusing on that week and all of their uncomfortable interactions. I could see the episode ending just before they end up reconciling things between them, leaving viewers on another cliffhanger.
