Episode Title:
The Royal Princess' Skirt / The Mysterious Student Council President.
Episode Description:
In the first part, Akane arrives at school apparently not wearing a skirt. Everybody notices, but is afraid to mention it, and rumors about it spread around the school. Karen, Akane's best friend, debates whether to point it out or not, reasoning that Akane might die of embarrassment. When Akane is summoned to the student council room over the PA system, all of the boys in her class follow her with the intent of peeking at her as she goes up the stairs. On the way, they run into Kanade, who heard the rumor and is shocked to see it is true. However, Akane explains that her skirt tore on the way to school and she changed into shorts. She lifts her shirt to demonstrate, only to reveal that she is only wearing underwear after all. In the second part, Kanade announces that the school will be taking part in a town beautification project. As president of the Akane Fan Club, Fukushina attempts to restrict his and Akane's class to the school grounds to make Akane feel more comfortable. However, he loses his resolve when Kanade points out that the project would afford him a chance to see Akane with her embarrassed face. In the epilogue, at the Sakurada family residence, Borscht's affinity for Akane is revealed to be the fact that her flat chest reminds him of his old bed. When Aoi announces that they are having borscht for dinner, he flees, believing they are attempting to eat him, but returns due to the delicious smell.
