Episode 6: "Even if you don't look at me at the summer beach, even if I spend the whole night with you, it won't be a romantic comedy" Synopsis<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Eyu, Shio, Akari, and Runako have come to the beach. Eyu can't look directly at the three girls in their swimsuits, but she is swept away by their fierce appeal.<\/p>\n

In the evening, Eyu and Akari are the only two who miss the bus back home.<\/p>\n

As they end up walking along a mountain path to a village, Eyu carries Akari on his back, who is secretly scared. Akari is thrilled to realize that "Eyu hasn't changed since she was a child." The two end up sharing a room at an inn.

[Introduction]<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

"E-Yu" Kai Senosuke, a first-year high school student. No girlfriend.
\n I'm currently obsessed with romantic comedies, especially those involving childhood friends.
\n Such Eyu's current concern is that his childhood friends Shio and Akari are just too cute!
\n But, you know… "Real childhood friends don't make for romantic comedies."
\n But, Shio and Akari themselves are feeling the same way…!
\n All the heroines are childhood friends! It's frustrating and irritating! But it's heartwarming!
\n The hottest childhood friend romantic comedy is about to begin!
