Masuzu makes a school club to help to help Chiwa become popular and ends up embarrassing Chiwa in front of other students. Masuzu tells Eita that she wants him to be only her boyfriend. || Chiwa sees Eita and Masuzu walking together arms linked and she objects, saying that anyone who wants to date him should have her permission first, because she knows him best. Masuzu handles her intrusion with great finesse. She later tells Eita to bring Chiwa with him to the former tea club room, and there says that she is forming a new club called the "Maiden`s Society For Performing Your Own Life" (自らを演出する乙女の会, Mizukara wo Enshutsu-suru Otome no Kai), for girls to learn how to become popular. Chiwa is convinced to join. She tells Masuzu that she sort of has an interest in a member of the basketball team named Sakagami, and Masuzu suggests that she bring around an empty guitar case to give people the impression that she is into music and to attract the attention of Sakagami. Masuzu later asks Eita to be more serious with their pretence and not to look at other girls.

The new plan to make Chiwa popular is to expand on her past life, but how long can she keep up the ruse. || Masuzu proposes that Chiwa act out incidents from her previous life and has her and Eita act out a scene she creates. This impresses their classmates who believed they were performing a drama sketch. Masuzu then decides it`s time for Chiwa to ask Sakagami out. She agrees, and does so by putting a letter into his shoe locker. Much to everyone`s surprise he meets up with her and agrees to a date the following Sunday. Eita cooks all of Chiwa`s favourite foods to celebrate. However, she is disturbed that Eita seems to be so happy for her and leaves, wishing they weren`t childhood friends. Eita later recalls how he originally wanted to become a doctor so he would be able to help Chiwa after she was injured and could no longer do kendo.

Eita gets up early to spy on Chiwa's first date with Sakagami.Masuzu having the same idea but she is there to watch something else unfold. || The next day Eita changes his plans to study and instead goes to the rendezvous where Chiwa is supposed to meet Sakagami, and is surprised to see Masuzu already there. Chiwa is made to wait over an hour, and it turns out Sakagami set her up as a bet at her expense, and humiliates her in front of his friends. Masuzu seems to have intended for this to happen so Chiwa would become as cynical as she and Eita are about love, but this infuriates Eita, who charges out to fight Sakagami and his friends in his chuunibyou persona "Burning Fighting Fighter", but winds up getting beaten bloody. They are about to attack Chiwa as well, but someone tosses her a pole which she uses like a kendo shinai, and gives them a sound drubbing. The shameful scene exposes Sakagami for the sort of person he is to the whole school. Masuzu doesn`t show up for school the next day, and Eita tries to visit her. She meets him out in the street, and as they talk, she suddenly kisses him. As usual her behaviour is ambiguous.

She refuses to talk about it but is actually bothered by that kiss. Later, Chiwa gets sick, and while he is nursing her he realises that she can`t be the one writing the letters. Eita receives a third letter, nearly getting caught by Chiwa and Masuzu, this time saying they should meet, and he finds the letters were from a girl he has never seen before, Akishino Himeka, who claims to have been his lover in a past life.
