Yuki and her friends are at gym class, and sees Yuki and few other opponents play basketball, and Yuki shoots several hoops.
“I got 10! That means I made it!” Yuki said.
“How did you get so good with athleticism?” Boy1 asked.
“Takes lot of practice as a performer since I was a kid.” Yuki said.
“Amazing!” Girl1 said.
Meanwhile at the hallway, Ren walks to the girl’s bathroom, and sees Aki.
“Aki, couldn’t you accept the fact that I started being friends with them? You know, Yuki and them.”
“You betrayed me! Remember we used to try to sabotage and worked hard to make them miserable?!” Aki yelled.
“They’re not bad. We got to understand them…”
“NO! See, this is what they did to you! I never thought you would be completely on their side!”
“But aren’t you tired of hating on them?” Ren asked.
“Are you serious? Look what they done to us, especially Yuki! Even if all of that is just a past, they are still the same as we first met them!” Aki answered.
“But we didn’t really understand how…”
“I bet you don’t. Just leave me alone, and I’m heading back to class.”
Aki leaves.
“Aki. Please.” Ren said to herself while worried.
At lunch, Ren talks to her new friends, and Yuki and Minoru are concerned about her friendship with Aki.
“She doesn’t even want to listen. I tried to get her to be friends with me again, but she is too angry to listen.” Ren said.
“Aki needs to grow up to learn about choosing what’s right. I really hope she gets back to you soon, even thought she was harsh to us before.” Minoru said.
“I do too.” Ren said.
“What does she do on her own since she stopped being friends with you and Ron?” Yuki asked.
“I don’t know. All I see is giving tantrums to others, and tries to ask few boys out, and yells at them for refusing to, since they are afraid of her.” Ren answered.
“Just to understand that it isn’t your fault to decide to be friends with us.” Minoru said.
“It’s fine, just like I said. I usually made up with my foes after a while.” Yuki said.
Ryo comes in and talks to them.
“Hey guys! This is my final week of Fujiwara High.” Ryo said.
“We will sure miss you.” Ren said.
“So, what did your fans do for your final week?” Yuki asked.
“My fans wants my pic with my autograph, and I gived them chocolates for free.”
“Sweet. Your fangirls are gonna miss you, right?” Ren asked.
“Just the ones who are not going to graduate with me. Also, my friends who are not seniors already are too.” Ryo said.
“I can’t wait to see your ceremony.” Minoru said.
“Yeah! For seniors, the best week is the final week. I finished my exams, and we are just having fun in my class, thinking about what we did since the beginning of Fujiwara. Oh well. Time to move on.” Ryo said.
“At least we see you when we visit your place with Yuki.” Minoru said.
“And how is Haruka?” Yuki asked.
“She’s doing the same thing. Right now, she is getting everyone to sign her yearbook.” Ryo said.
“I signed yours this morning. How much did you get so far?” Ren asked.
“Plenty. I had a line this morning and yesterday, and I just let others sign it for a short time between classes.” Ryo said.
“Wow!” Ren said.
“I’m getting mine for my senior year. All I got now is signature tabs for everyone to sign it. I got a lot in gym class, and same in my break times.” Yuki said.
“Yeah, I even signed yours.” Minoru said.
“The first one.” Yuki said.
They both laugh.
“So, how is Aki?” Ryo asked Ren.
“Still not so well. Aki isn’t really open minded.” Ren said.
“Sorry, girl. Well, I am gonna miss this place, but I heard that I am gonna have more fun in my future college. Good thing it’s not that far from here.” Ryo said.
“Yeah. I heard that it’s pretty good, and it has several lobbies and souvenirs.” Minoru said.
“Oh yeah. It has more. I gotta go back to check what Haruka is doing. See ya” Ryo said.
“Good luck!” Yuki said.
“Well, it’s our turn to be seniors.” Minoru said.
“Yeah. We got to do more activities in our senior year. It’s the blast!” Yuki said.
“Absolutely.” Minoru said.
Meanwhile, Rin and Eru are playing games at the game room.
“This is my favorite game. I have this back home.” Rin said.
“Me too. I think this is a good idea to set up a game room here.” Eru said.
“So, what made you create it for this school?” Rin asked.
“I just want a club that have friends enjoy gaming in the club. I actually want to be a game developer.”
“Cool! We could just have fun here during our senior year. All of us.”
“Yep.”
“So, your house paid for this?” Rin asked.
“Well, my family decide for me to start the club. They want me to socialize to others since they think I need to be more social. They did find donated game consoles and send it here.” Eru said.
“I see. It’s a good thing that you set this place for free, and bring donated consoles.”
“Yeah. We just found those.”
Meanwhile, Retasu and Takahashi are at the roof, having lunch.
“This will be a year from now that we will be here. We gotta do a lot of fun activities in our senior year.” Retasu said.
“You’re right. We gotta do the fun stuff. I can’t believe we will be seniors.” Takahashi said.
“Me too. Cheers to us to enjoy the last minute on our junior year. My brothers are graduating.”
“I heard. Looks like they are helpful for you. You learn from them to know how their life is gonna be since they are a year ahead.”
“Yeah. It’s true. They are really good brothers. Also, we will have strong relationship too.”
“Yep. I am glad you are really smart and understandable. I think we already have a strong relationship.”
“It’s good to hear.”
Retasu hugs him, and they both have lunch.
After school is done, Yuki heads to her job, and cosplay as Nancy Makuhari from Read or Die, and she goes to the store, role playing for the magazine shoot.
“That was a good acting, mam. Now your job is done.” Employee said.
“All right.” Yuki said.
She left the store, and she came across a girl who is playing as Lucy from Fairy Tail. She is talking to others, and role plays too. She then turns around and Yuki notice that Aki is that girl.
“Aki?” Yuki said to herself.
She decides to continue walking and Aki sees her walking away.
“Oh yeah. She works here.”
She decides to follow her to talk to her.
“Yuki! Yuki!”
Yuki turns around and sees her.
“Umm, Aki. Look, I work in this plaza.” Yuki said.
“I already know. I can’t believe you stole my best friends.” Aki said.
“You need to listen to them. I don’t have time for this.”
Yuki continues to walk away, but Aki still follows her.
“Come back! Yuki!”
“Can you stop following me? People are gonna think you’re weird for yelling.” Yuki said.
“Just so you know, you are the worst person I ever met in school. I can’t believe you interfere my time.”
“I didn’t. Just get away and go back to do some role plays for the magazine.”
“I’m just here for fun. I’m just gonna go back then.”
“It’s about time.”
Yuki went to the storage room to get her bag and rides home from her motor scooter.
Later, she and Ryo are playing video games at her room.
“I can’t believe Aki decides to react that way. She’s more crazy than when I met her.” Ryo said.
“She needs a break. I knew she was into cosplaying, but she broke character by having school as a subject.” Yuki said.
“Wow. I have two days left until my ceremony. Tomorrow’s the last day.”
“Yeah. You are gonna spend time with everybody who knows about you, because you are easy to be friends with.”
“Just like you. This is what you are gonna do next year.”
“Totally. At least I have plenty of time to think of what to do in my senior year.”
“You sure will. I also want to tell you something.” Ryo said.
“What?” Yuki asked.
“Since me and Haruka are having a bit more free time from next week, we decided to be vloging and filming online.”
“Cool. Sounds fun.”
“We will do a lot of fun activities. Since we are doing that, you wouldn’t mind being in it at some?”
“I don’t mind. You can film me on a scene and do pranks if you are planning one. You can film me sneezing out milk or morning hair fuzz if you want. I just like to show what is happening and to be true to myself.”
“That’s what I like about you. You are really brave and you saying all that, me and Haruka’s thoughts are the same.”
“Well, maybe your videos will be getting hits.” Yuki said.
“Yep. For some pranks, we can script them.” Ryo said.
“Totally. That way, it just makes the video more acceptable.”
“Exactly. Remember you push me to the mud puddle as a kid?”
“We were playing with each other., and I got dirty too. It was a prank.”
“You are really great with pranks as a kid, and they are harmless.”
“So, it’s good to help out for your videos.”
“Good. I’m glad you are willing to help.” Ryo said.
“That’s what siblings do, dude.” Yuki said.
“I always like that you do. It was amazing that you got me and Haruka together.”
“It was a piece of cake. You both had a crush on each other, so I decide to lie to you both that to meet me at the gym, and you both happen to go in and meet.”
“That is sweet, but you’re such a great little lier.”
Ryo playfully pushes Yuki’s shoulders and they both laugh.
“And you are very supportive. I enjoying sharing activities with you, and you make as great meals as Minoru does.” Yuki said.
“He’s very fun. Looks like you have others to feed you good meals.” Ryo said.
“You both have good recipes.”
“We do.”
Yuki sees the boss on the game.
“This boss is pretty challenging. I can do it, and so can you.” Yuki said.
“Ready to defeat it?” Ryo asked.
“Absolutely.”
They played and defeated the boss together.
“It was pretty good.” Ryo said.
“Look how it explodes.” Yuki said.
“Yep, for one of few hardest bosses.”
“It was fun.”
Later at night, Ryo and Yuki are getting ready to sleep. They are at the hallway.
“I gotta crash. It was a fun night.” Yuki said.
“It sure was. See you in the morning.” Ryo said.
“All right.”
Two days later, they are at the ceremony to see Ryo and Haruka graduate. They are at the seats.
“It’s pretty great to see him achieve further.” Yuki said.
“It’s true. He’s gonna have a lot of experience by the time you graduate.” Minoru said.
“Yeah. He’s the guy who shares his experiences.”
“That will be the same for my brothers.” Retasu said.
“They’re pretty good at scholarships.” Rin said.
“Maybe when we all do, we should celebrate our party.” Yuki said.
“It will be the best one ever.” Rin said.
The ceremony starts by showing all the graduates. They see Ryo coming in to the field at the stadium.
“Ryo!” His fans yelled.
“Hey guys!” He responded.
He sees Yuki and her friends and waves to them.
“Hey Ryo! You’re becoming a man!” Yuki said.
“Ready to move on to college?” Minoru asked.
“Are you excited?” Rin asked.
“Yep!” Ryo yelled.
He and the graduates sits down. The announcer comes in to talk at the microphone.
“Welcome to Fujiwara High School Graduation Ceremony. I am the principle and will be moving on right now like all these graduates.”
Rin got curious.
“So, he is leaving?”
“Seems like it.” Retasu said.
“Has a new one been elected yet?” Minoru asked.
“It may be announced during our spring break.” Eru said.
The principle speaks more.
“The students here are really fun and unique. Parents, your kids are wonderful on our school.”
Many minutes later, the seniors are started to be called for their diploma.
“What do we plan for him?” Yuki asked her parents.
“He wants us to offer us an expensive restaurant.” Her mom said.
“Ryo said he wants to thank us for helping him out.” Her dad said.
“That’s what he said to me. It’s awesome.” Yuki said.
Few minutes later, they called Jen and Ken.
“Yes! Way a go, brothers!” Retasu yelled.
Ken whistled.
“Wow. That’s a nice whistle.” Rin said.
“They are pretty fun.” Retasu said.
Retasu’s parents takes pictures of them receiving their diplomas.
“Yay!” Retasu cheered.
Few minutes later, Ryo came up to the stage to get his diploma.
“Awesome, Bro!” Yuki said.
“You made it!” Rin said.
Ryo notices them.
“I love their support.” Ryo smiles.
Yuki’s parents take pictures of him holding the diploma.
“It’s a pretty great shot.” Minoru said.
“It is. He will be proud of seeing this.” Yuki’s father said.
“I bet he will say that it’s pretty great.” Yuki said.
“Absolutely.” Retasu said.
After the ceremony has finished, all the attendance and graduates are crowding outside.
Ryo are with his friends, signing autographs on his new school shirt while Yuki, Minoru, and Yuki’s parents are near him. Eru, Rin and Retasu are hanging out with her parents and brothers.
“I can’t wait to have this graduation next year. It will be the best.” Yuki said.
“It’s best to think about your future graduation with a sibling who just already did.” Minoru said.
Ryo comes in and talks to them.
“Hey guys!” Ryo said.
Yuki hugs him.
“It was pretty good!” Yuki said.
“It is. I never went this far before.” Ryo said.
Yuki let go of him.
“Yeah.” Yuki said.
“We are so proud of you!” His mother said.
“Your graduation made our day.” His father said.
“I’m glad you all enjoyed it. Where did the rest of your friends go?” Ryo asked Yuki.
“They are hanging with Retasu’s brothers.”
“I see.”
“Minoru, you want to take a picture of Ryo, Yuki, and us?” Yuki’s mother asked.
“Sure. I like to help.” Minoru said.
Haruka runs and comes in.
“I made it. I got a lot of friends missing me and I gotta tell them goodbye.”
“Good. I was gonna tell my parents to wait for you to take a family photo.” Ryo said.
“Sweet!”
Yuki’s father lends Minoru his phone to take a picture of the whole family.
“Ready. Set!” Minoru said and then takes a photo of them a few times.
“Good! It was pretty good.” Ryo said.
“What about a picture with you?” Yuki’s father asked Minoru.
“I would, but who will hold the phone?” Minoru said.
Rin, Retasu, Eru, and Jen and Ken came in.
“Hey guys!” Retasu said.
“I can help you take a family photo.” Eru said.
“That will be great.” Minoru said.
They all take turns taking pictures with Ryo, Haruka, and Jen and Ken.
“This has got to be the greatest moment on our lives.” Haruka said.
“Yep. Definitely.” Yuki said.
They all hangout at the rest of the time outside with the graduates. Yuki says goodbye to some of the seniors and Ryo does the same and tells them to watch his future videos.
An hour later, they drive home and Yuki and Minoru hangs with Ryo and Haruka.
“So, where did Rin and Retasu went?” Haruka asked.
“To Retasu’s house for her brother’s celebration.” Yuki said.
Haruka’s parents are also in Yuki’s house to have a celebration for both Ryo and Haruka.
“This is the best day for you, Haruka.” Her mother said.
“Totally! I am goad you both are willing to celebrate our graduation in Ryo’s house.” Haruka said.
“Yep! He’s a great guy.” Her dad said.
“It’s so fun. Me and Minoru have a week of spring break.” Yuki said.
“Our college doesn’t start unil later this april.” Ryo said.
He comes in with a cake in the box.
“I brought a cake here for our graduation.” Ryo said.
“Sweet!” Haruka said.
