Just as Komugi and Yu’s feelings began to reach one another, Komugi is confronted by Yata-sensei. Afterwards, she’s just not the same, and drifts through her everyday life while Yu can only watch over her from afar. But… in the depths of Komugi’s memory, a familiar voice calls for her. Can the bonds she’s built with Yu and the gang overcome the sensei’s powers? And what will the future bring for the animal spirits living in Komugi’s world?
