Students in Class 1A begin to ignore Miyazawa after realizing she is not a perfect model student. Miyazawa meets Tsubasa, who feels jealous because Miyazawa holds Arima's affection. Tsubasa acts meanly toward Miyazawa but is caught by Arima, who forces her to apologize. He clarifies that he views Tsubasa only as a little sister, a fact she tolerated until discovering his relationship with Miyazawa. This revelation intensifies Tsubasa's anger. Meanwhile, Tsubasa's friends approach Miyazawa to discuss the situation. The rest of the class remains uncertain about how long they should continue their campaign of ignoring Miyazawa.
