It's the day of the school's ball sports tournament. Izumi-kun is playing soccer with the boys, and Shikimori-san is participating in the girls' volleyball match. Izumi-kun knows he can't contribute much, but he plays his hardest anyway. Shikimori-san worries about him, given his natural unluckiness... and surely enough, he gets hit in the face by a soccer ball and blacks out. He ends up in the nurse's office while Shikimori-san looks after him, meaning the two of them are alone. Then Shikimori-san says she's going to stay with him instead of heading back to play in the volleyball match...

After receiving movie tickets from Inuzuka, Izumi-kun invites Shikimori-san to go see a movie together. He makes careful preparations to ensure that no accidents happen that would cause trouble for Shikimori-san... but as always, he faces accident after accident anyway. Still, he manages to arrive on time to meet Shikimori-san in an incredibly cute outfit! What if she wants to see a romance film and one thing leads to another? Izumi-kun's imagination runs wild, but he's surprised by the movie Shikimori-san chooses...

Summer begins at last! Izumi-kun joins Shikimori-san and their friends in deciding what they'll all do together over summer break. They decide to go to the river, but is the combination of a river and Izumi-kun's bad luck too dangerous? Then Shikimori-san says something amazingly cool... After some discussion, they all head to the mall together. Shikimori-san seems disappointed when Izumi-kun says he won't wear a swimsuit at the river. She says she won't wear one either, but then Izumi-kun does something that lights a fire in her...

Summer break is here at last! Izumi-kun and his friends arrive at the river, where they get started with a barbecue. As they divide up the prep work, everyone suddenly feels very anxious... because Izumi-kun has picked up a kitchen knife! Even Shikimori-san's eyes grow wide... but she's once again charmed by Izumi-kun and his ability to do just about anything. After the barbecue, they all decide to play in the river, but Izumi-kun gets into some trouble...

Izumi-kun is out sick from school. Shikimori-san learns that Izumi-kun asked Inuzuka to take notes for him, causing her to glare daggers at Inuzuka in envy. Yes, Shikimori-san sees Inuzuka as a rival. When the two of them go to Izumi-kun's house together to take the notes to him, Hachimitsu secretly follows them, and one little word that slips from Shikimori-san's mouth leads her to deduce the reason for this perceived rivalry... On another day, Shikimori-san is at the mall with Nekozaki, where they run into Kamiya-san and invite her to hang out with them.

The day of the amusement park date has finally come. Izumi-kun is all fired up as he works out a plan to make sure Shikimori-san has a good time. After some shopping at a store that sells costume goods, the first attraction they head to is one based on the tale of Sleeping Beauty. The line is long, but since they're together, the time flies by. When they finally board the ride, it's so comfortable that Izumi-kun falls asleep, and when Shikimori-san sees this... The distance between them continues to shrink!
