Ep. 9: Anzu trifft sich mit ihren Kindheitsfreunden und konfrontiert Juntas vergangene Gefühle auf einem Klassentreffen

9

Anzu encounters Amin and Riporin, friends from middle school, who cause her to remember a chubby boy named Tonta from elementary school. She suddenly remembers Tonta was Junta's nickname, meaning she and Junta really are childhood friends but she didn't recognise him due to his weight loss. Amin and Riporin invite Anzu and Junta to their school reunion. Anzu is troubled; if Junta is her real childhood friend then his crush on her must be real. Riri confirms she never cast a spell to make Junta love her; all she did was help them reunite after years apart. At the reunion a boy named Ryuya insists on playing games; girls versus boys, with forfeits, but with Anzu's game skills the boys lose constantly and have to embarrassingly reveal their first crush and buy the girls ice-cream. Junta arrives and Ryuya becomes bitter that Junta has become handsome and popular. Ryuya quits the reunion but when Anzu chases him he admits Anzu was his first crush but he was always jealous she was closer to Junta. Anzu is able to turn him down while remaining friends,but Junta is again traumatized when Anzu claims she isn't interested in him either. Despite the rejection Ryuya is determined to win Anzu's heart. (Source: Wikipedia)
