Sakura wants to confess her feelings to her crush, Nozaki. Unfortunately, when she does, he thinks she is just a fan of his shojo manga.

Nozaki's friend and fellow manga artist Mikoshiba pays a visit. Considering Mikoshiba is pretty much Nozaki's foil, Sakura can't figure out how or why the two are friends.

Sakura learns that she and Mikoshiba aren't the only ones helping Nozaki with his mangas. Concerned with who may be cozying up to Nozaki, Sakura is on a new mission.

Mikoshiba is invited to a mixer, but isn't sure about his social skills. Fortunately, with a little help from Nozaki and Sakura, he might be able to figure it out just enough.

When Sakura notices that Nozaki's apartment is pristine, she panics, worried that he's trying to impress another girl. What she discovers is even more irritating.

Nozaki gives Wakamatsu a gift to help him fight his insomnia, but what he doesn't tell him is that this gift may also be his worst nightmare.
