第3話: 漫画の失敗後、餅つき大会で忍耐を学ぶSeishu

Naru believes she's become more "adult" as she is better able to read kanji. Seishu goes to get some more ink from the village's general store and finds that Naru's friend Tamako also wants the ink as she plans to use it for a manga she wants to submit to a shounen magazine. Seishu offers to read her draft copy, only to find that the story is very inappropriate, but Tamako is convinced it will be unique and bestselling. That night, Tamako decides to go tell Seishu an excuse before he thinks she's a "fujoshi," but ends up witnessing what she sees as a yaoi-inspired scene between Seishu and Hiroshi and forgets all about her original mission. The next day, Seishu receives word that his calligraphy contest entry only received second place compared to another entrant five years younger than him. In an attempt to cheer him up, Naru and her friends drag her to a mochi-catching contest in honor of a new boat that was built by Kenta's father. Seishu has trouble seeing the point when everyone else outmuscles him for the mochi, when one old woman advises him to wait for the opportunities in front of him instead of fighting the others. Later, he returns home to find that one of the top mochi-catchers made a mochi-based soup for him and the other villagers. (Source: Wikipedia)
