I Reach Out to You

It's the day of Subaru's autograph event. Seeing him in a strange suit and acting different than usual makes Haru feel worried, but Subaru hastily leaves without even noticing. Left alone in the house, Haru is suddenly overcome with anger… Meanwhile, as Subaru sees all the people who've come for his autograph, he shakes uncontrollably and wishes he could run away. But just then, someone familiar arrives…

Because You're Here

Subaru heads into his living room to find Haru curled up asleep in front of the window. She looks so comfortable napping in the sun's rays that Subaru can't resist stretching out on the floor nearby to read some reference materials, but he soon falls asleep. Then he starts to dream about his own chidhood… Meanwhile, Haru wakes up and sees Subaru sleeping, so she decides to prepare some food for him. She finds a can of cat food in the kitchen, but as she's struggling to get the food out of it, someone suddenly appears behind her!

Ones Who Can't Be Controlled

Subaru and Kawase are having a meeting at Subaru's house to discuss cover designs and promotions for the upcoming print release of Subaru's novel. Kawase says there's been strong demand from a store owner to hold an autograph signing event, but the antisocial Subaru is repulsed by the idea and refuses. Then, suddenly, the doorbell rings, and Subaru's house is overrun with children!

What Connects Us

After accompanying Subaru to Nana's apartment to return her key, Haru had an emotional reunion with her younger brother, Hachi. Then, suddenly, a man with a scary face busts into the room! He turns out to be Nana's younger Yugo, and despite his large stature, Haru is relieved to see Hachi and Roku happily playing with him. Then Subaru spots a magazine called Polaris in Yugo's bag—the very magazine that's serializing Subaru's novel.
