Ep. 12: Yuzu protects Aki's belief in Santa while Nana and Nishiki propose festive costumes.

Yuzu stays in Aki’s room to ensure he sleeps and does not discover Santa Claus is a myth. During the holidays, Nana requests a feminine Santa outfit for Aki, while Nishiki asks him to dress as a shrine maiden for her store. Matsuri arrives with Ayaka to deliver a Christmas gift, causing a half-asleep Aki to mistake Ayaka for Santa. Later, the student council searches his room for pornographic magazines but finds a men's fitness magazine instead, leading them to wrongly assume he is attracted to men. The group spends New Year's Eve together and visits a shrine the following day, where Aki prays to become more masculine and grow closer to Ayaka.
