Ao-chan Can't Study!

Kijima's startling confession gives Ao-chan quite a shock... and the upper hand over Kijima, too. Mwa-ha-ha!

With a deadline looming, Ao-chan joins her father's editor on a research mission at... a "Love!Meat" festival? Just what kind of research is Ao supposed to be doing?!

Ao-chan WILL improve her grades, and to prove her dedication, she arrives three hours early for a study group near the beach. Three guesses who she unexpectedly runs into.

Ao-chan thinks she knows exactly what's wrong with Kijima, and she's concocted a clever plan to remedy the situation. But then her dad decides to lend a helping hand...

Ao-chan feels weird after ending things with Kijima, but it was the right thing to do. She needs to study! ...but if studying is right for her, why can't she focus?!

Ao-chan has a package delivered. That is not a double entendre. She literally orders something off the internet and a panic spiral ensues.

Ao-chan knows how take her relationship with Kijima to the next level... but it would mean breaking a promise she made to Kijima.
