Because he wanted to be around Hina, he also decided to study hard and get into the same school.

Hina and Kotaro succeeded in getting into senpai's high school. There they meet Hina's brother Yu and Kotaro's sister Natsuki who introduced Hina to her fellow senior classmates Mio Aida, and Akari Hayasaka who is admired by Sota Mochizuki a classmate. Eager to see her beloved senpai again, Hina searched for him all around the school and finally located him watering flowers in the school yard.

With a new mindset and determination, Hina puts on make up every morning in hopes of talking to senpai and getting him to notice her. Upon arriving at school, Hina was shocked to see senpai had change his image from being dorky to sexy.
