A Dead Heat and Determination
Episode Description:
The student, Seiran, one of Akabana’s stalkers, challenges Hiroto to a game. Akabana has a strategy meeting with Hiroto and Yuki who is an old friend of Akabana and aware she is pretending to be Sarasa. Seiran is a legitimate 5 star and his game involves collecting cards from around the district then competing in a 5 round card draw. Unfortunately his ability Emergency Mobilisation allows him to summon 300 fellow stalkers to help him and they collect 16 cards very quickly. Urasaka decides to help him and with her bikes speed Hiroto collects 2 cards but is injured. When he tries to keep playing Akabana reveals her secret. Sarasa wasn’t kidnapped, she wanted a normal high school life so Akabana smuggled her to the mainland under an alias. Sarasa plans to return after graduation. Hiroto is impressed Akabana so easily fooled the Saionji’s and hints Akabana might be his ideal woman. Hiroto realises as a fake 7 star he can technically use an ability, Rule Breaker, to change one rule mid-game. He thus tricks Seiran into thinking he used Rule Breaker when in fact he used Fake Screen to manipulate Seiran’s phone. Seiran mistakenly discards all his cards, leaving Hiroto with a single card, winning the game. Akabana attempts to ask Hiroto what he meant by “ideal woman”, but decides against it.
