Episode synopsis
Yūto, Haruka, Mika and Nanami become increasingly worried about Hazuki's attempt to distance herself from the family and thus decide to follow her on a shopping trip, meeting up with various familiar faces like Yūto's otaku friend Nobunaga, Yūto's sister Ruko and their teacher Yukari. Mika and Nanami eventually becomes distracted in buying lingerie, leaving Yūto and Haruka to the job and almost came to a conclusion that Hazuki was about to get married and quit her job. Before going home, they had a misunderstanding with a bridal shop where they are thought to be customers and were given a chance to take a portrait together with Yūto wearing a tuxedo and Haruka in a wedding dress. That night, Hazuki, much to everyone's relief, explains that she is not quitting, but was just going to a hardware store, which was located above the bridal shop, to fix her chainsaw.
About Haruka Nogizaka's Secret
Haruka Nogizaka is beautiful, intelligent, and talented at the piano. A true idol of Hakujo Academy. Yuuto Ayase on the other hand is an ordinary guy who, thanks to his hard-drinking older sister and her lecherous friend corrupting his life, has reportedly given up on women. However, one day in the school library, Yuuto stumbles into a rare issue of a magazine catering to anime and nerd culture--or rather, the girl holding it, who turns out to be none other than Haruka Nogizaka herself! Terrified of others realizing that she isn’t as “perfect” as she claims to be, Haruka runs away from Yuuto... but this is one woman that Yuuto just can’t give up on!
