Now that Nana befriended a Shiba Inu and named it Takara, Mizuki suddenly comes in with an eye patch over one of her eyes. Nana wonders what is wrong with her.


As Nana works on her manuscripts, Airisa wonders where Mizuki is as she plays with Takara. When Mizuki came in with an eye patch, asking if she looked cool, Nana seemed worried as she cares about Mizuki’s health. She wants Mizuki to get her eye checked by a doctor and recover before returning to work. While Mizuki seems okay with working, knowing that Nana will fall behind.

In the end, Mizuki listened as she went back home. We get a glimpse of her older sister, Yuzuki, doing chores. She has lunch made already for her, as Mizuki seems worried that Nana won’t be able to handle things on her own. Mizuki, of course, wonders if she is the only one who is replaceable, given that everyone she works with is talented. Yuzuki thinks everyone is replaceable, which is, of course, the harsh reality, but even so, she doesn’t want Mizuki to get stuck thinking she is the only one who deals with those problems. Still, Yuzuki thinks Muzuki wants them to say that Mizuki is the only one who can do what she does.

Yuzuki, of course, runs into Nana as she walks her dog. She liked how cute the dog is and longed to see it when she saw Mizuki’s pictures of her. Also, Yuzuki shared that Mizuki is doing well and apologized to Nana.

Also, she congratulated Nana on her first volume release and shared that she is supporting her with the copies she has. Yuzuki, of course, offers a massage, and while Nana wants to pay for it, she complains about the price. Yuzuki also wants an autograph from Nana. Still, Nana wants Yuzuki to say hi to her before changing her mind.

At least Mizuki made a full recovery. Nana, of course, came over to Mizuki’s house to apologize to her before complaining about having to pull an all-nighter to get it done since Arisa got drunk and couldn’t do anything. Nana realizes she needs Mizuki as she gives her a slice of cake. Mizuki admits Nana was the one who banned her in the first place, as she is happy to have the cake.


In the second half, Touko received an invitation to attend a shouji tournament at a welcome reception, with Amano participating. Of course, Nana asked if it was okay for her to go to Kaede. The funny thing is, she invites Nana and Mizuki to stay a night at a Japanese-style inn where the event is taking place. After all, Kaede thinks that Nana and Mizuki




Funny how Nana gets excited over this trip, as it’s the first time going on one since high school. As Kaede had tea, Nana and Mizuki went to the bath with Touko. They eventually meet Amano, whom Mizuki and Nana get excited over. Amano seems excited to meet Nana, hearing about her from Touko. At least Nana got an autograph from her, which is to be expected from Amano, her #1 oshi.

At least Kaede revealed the reason why they are staying over. She wants Nana and Mizuki to take a break after the second volume is done, as Nana never takes breaks. Funny how Nana is motivated to keep working, although Kaede wants her to take a break. At least they got to see the welcome reception.


After getting back to their room, Kaede wants to go to the bath with Nana too. It’s funny to see how Nana gets flustered in a rather cute moment between the two. Meanwhile, it’s weird to see Arisa get all jealous of Nana, Mizuki and Kaede having fun while she is left behind since she didn’t finish her manuscripts. Funny how Arisa scares the dog as she wants to pull ahead while they are partying. I guess she should have finished her manuscripts instead of getting drunk.
