Right off the bat, Umi rejects the other guy. “It seems impossible to get Umi to say yes,” says one of her friends. But she mentions later that this guy has been going around, asking out all the hot girls. So don’t you want her to say no? As for the guy’s tactics, some guys play the numbers game. Not saying it’s right, but it’s just what they do. It doesn’t matter how many times they fail or who ends up hating them, because they only have to hit their target once. Eventually, the group disperses, but not before Yuu asks for Maki’s phone then puts her number in it. I will never understand why people will agree to hand over their incredibly expensive electronics to a relative stranger, no questions asked. He then adds that he has yet another secret to keep. Um, no? Why would you want to lie to your only friend?
