After Ajisai and Renako had fun on their first night at the inn with some ping pong and time in the bath, Mai decided to crash their stay. You might wonder, what happens.
From last time, Renako thought the housekeeper was at the door. However, it was Mai and Renako who became super embarrassed. Of course, Mai wants to join in on the fun as she eventually asks Ajisai why she acted like a little sister. Yes, she became extremely embarrassed as Renako explained that she had frequented this place all the time during her childhood.
When Mai wants Renako to show her around, she becomes reluctant. Ajisai goes along with it, as Renako doesn’t seem to like Mai and doesn’t appreciate Ajisai doing the little sister thing. Essentially, despite Renako’s efforts to be extroverted and close to Mai, she remains shy. Either way, they visited various places around that time, including a 100 yen shop that Ajisai often went to during her childhood. Of course, Mai learned a thing or two hanging out with Satsuki, as her family couldn’t afford much.
At the 100 yen shop, we see a photo of a younger Ajisai. As you would expect, Renako finds a young Ajisai cute. We find out quite a bit about her as the owner takes photos of Mai and Ajisai together.
Obviously, she seems reluctant to take a picture with Mai, of course. Renako discovers that Ajisai cried when she was young, as her parents had to care for her younger brother. Suzuki managed to calm her down by telling her to show them her cutest side. It’s evident that Ajisai used to be selfish and caused a lot of trouble. Renako is happy to learn more about her, as she has finally come to know Ajisai’s true self beneath her angelic and kind personality.
Of course, they noticed that a summer festival was taking place. By chance, the hotel has yukatas they can use. The amusing thing is that Mai’s maid, Hanatori, is present and gives Renako a cold reception. Obviously, she is rooting for Satsuki as she refers to Renako as “poisonous bug.” The funny thing is, when Mai comes in, she acts all nice.
With that, Renako sees Mai and Ajisai in their yukata, complimenting them. It’s funny how she is the least enthusiastic about Mai. They engaged in various activities until they were ready to eat. The funny thing is that Mai and Ajisai never told Renako the spot they would meet back at. Only Ajisai saw Mai waiting as they talked about Renako and how she came to help them when they needed it the most. Renako loves both quite a lot.
As expected, Mai admits to Ajisai that she is in love with Renako. Yep, it surprises Ajisai, as Mai hasn’t got a clear answer from Renako yet, and she’s not sure if she is comfortable with a relationship. It’s because she thinks Renako is enchanting, and maybe Ajisai feels the same way. Although Ajisai doesn’t want to hurt Mai’s feelings by sharing her true feelings, it becomes apparent later.
After the fireworks and the bath, Renako notices that Ajisai is acting weird as they get into the tub. Obviously, Renako has a lot of fun with Mai and Ajisai. While Ajisai got out early, Mai, of course, shares that she is only interested in Renako as she keeps what she said to Ajisai a secret.
Aside from that, Mai left early in the morning, not without kissing Renako. When Renako and Ajisai waited at the train station, she was happy that she had averted Ajisai from becoming a gyaru girl. Renako, of course, asks Ajisai what she is thankful for.
Of course, Ajisai wanted to tell something important, as in her romantic feelings, perhaps? However, Renako couldn’t listen to it with a train going by, and Ajisai said it was nothing. Is it a sign that she is not ready to tell, as Renako waves to her, even though that feeling inside her is love? I guess it’s something we will find out in the finale?
