Gokinjo Monogatari

Episode 11

Yuusuke summons the other Akindo members during an intermission between classes to announce the successful acquisition of five extra tickets to the amusement park which affords admission for the seven of them if Mikako has not already used the two tickets that he had given her. Murphy's Law wrecks the kids' plans -- the aftermath thereof a circumstantial double date. Sensing Mikako's silent fuming and Yuusuke's lust after Mikako, Mariko excitedly leads everybody through several rides before flirting with Tsutomu during the lunch break which ignites Mikako's frustration enough to vote with her feet with Yuusuke right on her heels with less-than-gentlemanly motives that quickly give way to his arduous attempts to keep pace with Mikako. Mariko accidentally hitting close to home while teasing Tsutomu instigates the deus ex machina epiphany that there is no way that she can ever have any euphoric convergent chemistry with Tsutomu who conscripts her into a hasty retreat when several fangirls accost the pair; an exchange of prologues and perspectives later, Mariko ultimately resolves herself to returning to Yokohama to resolve her prologue while Tsutomu takes responsibility for succumbing to Yuusuke's counterproductive wheedling and intercedes on Mikako's behalf.
