Despite her best efforts to keep her budding relationship with Insta-famous classmate Arata Minami under wraps, Kuroe Akaishi is thrust into the spotlight—only this time in human form. With the new semester underway, the socially awkward kaiju finds herself attracting all sorts of unwanted attention. Can she handle her newfound popularity...?!

Kuroe finally mustered up her courage and kissed Minami...in her kaiju form! Now that he's the hot topic of the national media, it's the job of the newly dubbed “Kaiju Prince" to protect his human girlfriend from the press. But with the delicate balance of the Minami-Kuroe/Harugon-Manatsu love triangle ruined, can their fragile relationship survive the scrutiny of the media-and the jealousy of their friend?

Suffering from a rare, incurable illness that causes frightening changes to her body, loner Kuroe Akaishi spends her high school days avoiding all her classmates—especially class idol Arata Minami and his groupies. But when Arata starts making her heart skip a beat with irritating regularity, Kuroe discovers that her illness actually has a big—make that MONSTER—secret: Romance turns her into Love-zilla…literally!

After Kuroe drove away another kaiju that showed up in Tokyo, she revealed to her boyfriend, Minami, that she and Harugon are one and the same. Now, on a faraway, undeveloped island, she’s learned the secret of her origins. And the truth may be quite dangerous…

Huh?! What does he even mean?! Stupid brat!! First he doesn’t push that girl away—after she kissed him—and now he’s saying THAT?? While eating squid? I mean, I know I’m the one who’s been avoiding talking to him head-on, and I did tell him to wait three months, but I was getting there, okay? Ugh, and as if that wasn’t enough to deal with, what was going on with Hakamada-kun at the festival...?

We already made it through two days without any Naruse-related incidents (or at least any public ones), so if he could just hang on for one more day ! But of course that rug rat is starting to get all antsy—being super-touchyfeely, saying whatever he wants... Doesn’t he realize that being around the team will become ultra-awkward if we start dating? I do have to admit, though, I might kind of sort of be thinking about it—after I leave the team, obviously...

Seo witnessed something impossible: Wakamatsu promising to go on a date with a classmate. Sakura witnessed something unacceptable: Nozaki reminiscing about a date with an underclassman. It’s gonna take some serious sleuthing to get to the bottom of this situation... But if Seo and Sakura were half as good at untangling misunderstandings as they are at starting them, it’d be a snap!

Thanks to Tamao’s supernatural powers, Seimei and the gang find themselves transported over a hundred years back in time! There, Hatanaka is faced with the vast gap between his and his future wife Ibara’s lifespans, prompting him to declare that he’s giving up on her for good. Can this rift be repaired before everyone returns to their proper time...?

The red pea fires up the crowd!!Sohoku speeds towards the finish line, carrying the hopes of their ace, Kinjou, on their backs! With the grand finale close at hand, Hakone Academy’s Fukutomi is in position to take the lead, but Onoda and the first-years can’t afford to back down just yet. As they approach the base of Mt. Fuji, they’re going to need all the stamina they can muster to claim victory!

Winner takes all…!! After three grueling days of biking over mountains, across valleys, and through blistering heat, the Inter-High is finally at an end. Though Sohoku’s numerous setbacks should have shattered their hopes, Sakamichi Onoda never gave up! Now, he’s caught up to the current leader, Sangaku Manami from Hakone Academy. In these last five hundred meters, will Manami protect Hakone’s crown, or will there be new champions…?!

Can they rise again…?! Onoda’s been in a bit of a slump since Makishima unexpectedly left for England before year’s end. But when challenged by Ashikiba during the Mt. Minegayama Hill Climb Race, it’s time for him to prove that Makishima’s tutelage was not in vain! But Onoda isn’t the only one struggling with the loss of the third-years…A private conversation with Imaizumi leaves Naruko full of doubt—to be a sprinter…or not to be?!

Five kilometers…and a five-way tie! Victory is within reach—but for whom? With less than five kilometers remaining on the grueling climb up Mt. Fuji, the challenge between Manami and Midousuji comes to a close as the battle for the finish line begins! Midousuji breaks away, but Sohoku’s Imaizumi relentlessly pursues him. Will Imaizumi’s battle with his long-standing rival end in victory—or defeat?

The crazy days of Nozaki and the gang speed ahead at breakneck pace! Nozaki and Sakura scope out the competition of other manga artists, Ryousuke discovers Yukari’s manga, and Wakamatsu’s quest to learn to endure Seo’s singing without falling asleep continues! Meanwhile, Hori and Kashima’s communication is as stellar as ever, while Mikoshiba just can’t accept another person’s feelings for the idol he likes...

Love is only smooth sailing when you know how to words… and use smartphones. Communication can be a beautiful thing—when the other person actually understands your intended meaning. Unfortunately for Nozaki and the gang, that never happens. Not when some of Nozaki’s classmates invite Sakura over to his house “for the first time.” Not when Nozaki and Ryousuke chat at a café, and certainly not when Mikoshiba tries to learn judo from Mayu. As for Hori, Kashima, Seo, and Wakamatsu………

All Kuroe Akaishi wants is to live a low-profile life without inconveniencing the residents of Tokyo…That’s why she’s been maintaining a loner life, after all. But with class heartthrob Arata Minami in the mix, her uncontrollable emotions threaten to wreak havoc on the city once more! What’s a lovestruck monster gotta do for a normal love life?!

Severely overestimating the villagers' wealth, Handa-sensei finds himself quite short on students for his calligraphy school upon announcing his exorbitant tuition rate. But as his hopes begin to fade, a savior appears!?

Occupying a mansion cloaked in secrecy, nobles and living dolls reside alongside each other. One such pair, Kate and Emilico, was deemed “of age” recently.

Their survival at Shadows House hangs in the balance...

They’re so goofy, they’re cool. Enter: a group of cool guys who seem like they’ve got that unapproachable swag. But look closer and you’ll find a bunch of dorks who’ve gotten the act down pat. So sit back, grab some popcorn, and enjoy watching these clumsy dudes try to look cool all day, every day.

Secret after secret among Nozaki and friends is revealed, plunging the groupeven further into chaos! Who exactly owns the rather unique books in Nozaki’s closet? What does Sakiko Yumeno do in her (his) free time? Will Wakamatsu ever actually figure out who Lorelai really is...?!

But there’s more to this perfect professor than meets the eye, and while most of the students are impressed, Sano seems to see right through him…

Hyakki Academy’s Night Parade Culture Festival has begun, and Haruaki’s kicking things off by issuing the students and teachers a challenge-anyone who doesn’t escape from his maze within thirty minutes will be forced to wear a sailor uniform for the rest of the day, and he’s taking the competition very seriously! But when Haruaki later heads to the school’s basement, he finds himself in another festival entirely...one run by the dead! Will our resident scaredy-cat make it back to the land of the living, or will he be trapped in the underworld for all eternity?

Expecting some summertime fun with friends, Haruaki heads to Rintarou’s house, where his hopes are soon dashed.

Meanwhile, the elder Seo tries again to win a date with his longtime crush, Yukari—’tis the season, after all. And love might be in the air for one Seo sibling, but how will the other fare when Lorelai’s biggest fan, Wakamatsu, at long last learns Yuzuki’s true identity?!

It's the day of the fireworks display, and Chihiro's come down with a fever! At Saki's recommendation, a worried Sakuya decides to visit him at home.
