As if Urushi and Ayumu's shared club life wasn't complicated enough, now their families get involved. Ever the gentleman, Ayumu attempts to impress Urushi's father without betraying his intentions. But his strategic resolve will meet perhaps its greatest test yet...

The members of the shogi club head to the beach as they train for their upcoming competition, but with love in the air, shogi is the last thing on everyone's minds. On the heels of Sakurako and Takeshi's engagement (?!), will Urushi finally work up the nerve to tell Ayumu how she feels?

Ayumu has made a solemn vow not to ask out his senpai in shogi club until he has beaten her fair and square in one match. However he is still no closer to his goal, and the school year continues to march on. Will he be able to uphold his promise to himself despite all the school activities, new club members, and conspiring friends, all while finding time to somehow get a leg up in shogi...?

Urushi, the ever-studious club president and shogi mastermind. Ayumu, the shogi-challenged but self-assured (and only other) member. He has vowed not to ask out his seemingly interested senpai until he has beaten her in one game of shogi. Obstacles abound as new members and Ayumu's old haunt, the kendo club, come bounding back into their shared world.

The day is finally here-Urushi's long awaited graduation ceremony and Urushi and Ayumu's final game as members of the shogi club. With Ayumu's confession riding on the outcome of this pivotal game, will he finally make his move?!

Ayumu's resolve to wait to ask out his senpai and shogi club president, Urushi, is not all that will be tested, as the club continues to grow. Meanwhile, one of the club's new members finds out Urushi's secret...

After sharing a heartfelt moment together at the end of their shogi training camp, both Ayumu and Urushi must face the reality of Urushi's upcoming graduation and departure from the shogi club. Meanwhile, Rin takes advantage of Urushi's absence to make a move of her own.
