After witnessing a heated discussion between Nagi and Daitetsu about Jin, Tsugumi and the other members of the Art Club started questioning themselves about the true nature of Jin and Daitetsu's relationship. Later, Tsugumi accidentally makes the discussion get public, and rumors about the duo being a homosexual couple started to spread, much to their own troubles. A friend of Tsugumi encourages her to bring the topic to Zange, who decided that the best solution to the problem is for Jin to officially date a girl, and she offers herself to do so. Later at Jin's house, Tsugumi apologizes to him and he is asked by them to choose between dating Zange or her to clear out all misunderstandings, until Nagi suggests that both should be trying to get his affection in public as a "fitting solution". However, having two girls fighting so fervently for Jin at school ends up fueling even more bad rumors about him.
