Episode 19 Story

While cleaning his room, Morihito Otogi finds a letter from Nico Wakatsuki that he received when they were children. It reads, “To Moi-chan, Nico will always, always be your friend.”

Morihito recalls how he kept it pinned to his wall for about five years, looking at it every day for encouragement.

On the anniversary of his mother’s death, Morihito sets out alone to visit her grave. Meanwhile, at the Otogi household, Nico, Kanshi, Keigo, Miharu, and Nemu Miyao are hanging out together. There, Nemu hears from Nico about memories of Morihito from his childhood—when he was just a little different from the way he is now.
