"Miss Erina, you've arrived," Hachiman approached the group, nodding in acknowledgement.

Saeko playfully commented, "I know every inch of your skin, Hachiman," which earned a resigned look from him.
"Saeko, you didn't come here today just to tease me, did you?" Hachiman inquired, aware that their past encounters had been more intimate. This wasn't the ideal setting, considering they were in the midst of a competition, and privac...
The Kendo Inter-High School Championship had an impressive lineup of 32 schools this year. The competition was carefully structured, categorized by gender, and featured a series of stages, including knockout, preliminary, initial, semi-final, and final rounds.
With the host's announcement, the competition began in earnest. Each match was limi...
"So, that's the story," Saeko said, nodding in understanding.
"But Hachiman, you're truly remarkable. It's not just Kendo; your culinary skills are outstanding as well," she commented.
Hachiman responded with a modest smile, saying, "Oh, it's nothing special, really. I happen to be decent at these two things, and I practice them quite ...
As time sped by, the day of the long-awaited tournament had finally arrived. Hachiman, Saeko, Kotonoha, and their fellow Kendo club members boarded the school-arranged bus, destined for the competition venue in Fukuoka.

With a resounding 3:0 victory and Erina's undeniable defeat, it became unmistakably clear to Senzaemon, Soue Nakiri, and even Alice that Hachiman's culinary prowess surpassed Erina's. Despite Alice's fierce competitive spirit and her avowals of wanting to best Erina, she couldn't deny the lingering gap between herself and her cousin.
As the o...
As Senzaemon Nakiri embarked on the tasting, Soue Nakiri and Leonora on either side eagerly followed suit. The trio selected a shrimp dumpling each, savoring the entire piece as they dug into the dish.
As their teeth sunk into the dumplings, the countenances of these three seasoned gourmands betrayed expressions of pure delight.
Among ...
"In truth," Hachiman admitted with a modest smile, "I won against Miss Erina last time purely by chance."
"Hmph," Erina responded with an air of indifference, "I don't need your sympathy. Losing is losing."
"But just wait and see," Erina continued with determination, "this time I'll definitely win."
Erina, however, remained ...
"Hisako is currently occupied with a task I assigned to her."
"What? So, I won't have the pleasure of witnessing Ryo-kun outshine your little secretary?"
"If Ryo-kun can best your little secretary, it would be a testament to my superior judgment in selecting attendants."
"Well, that's unfortunate."
Upon learning that Hisa...
In the Nakiri residence in Totsuki, Erina Nakiri sat in serene meditation, mentally preparing herself for an impending culinary competition.
"Hello, Erina, I'm back!"
Abruptly, the room's door swung open, and a vivacious voice filled the air.
Erina turned her head, her expression touched with surprise, as she recognized a famili...
"But something seems to be missing," Yumiko remarked, her discerning eye catching an anomaly.
In a decisive move, Yumiko reached out and removed Hina's glasses, unveiling a hidden facet of her beauty.
"Hey, Yumiko, what's going on?" Hina exclaimed, surprised by the abrupt removal of her glasses.
"I've actually noticed for a whil...
"If you continue like this, Yui, this silly girl might actually buy that swimsuit," Yumiko remarked as she handed Yui a pink two-piece swimsuit with delicate lace detailing.
"I still think this one suits you better, Yui."
Yui blinked, momentarily distracted from the V-shaped swimsuit. She took the pink two-piece from Yumiko's hand.

"Miss Erina wishes to have another cooking duel with Mister Hikigaya," Hisako declared her purpose for the visit.
"Huh? Erina-san, isn't that..." Kotonoha, standing beside Hachiman, was the first to exclaim upon hearing Erina's name.
As the renowned "God Tongue," Erina Nakiri's name frequently graced television reports. What made it ev...
The echoing footsteps of Hachiman resonated as he made his way to the kendo club after school, his presence a familiar one.
Inside the dojo, he found himself face to face with Kotonoha, her expression serious and determined, her hair neatly tied back in a ponytail. Hachiman couldn't help but offer a gentle smile.
"Kotonoha, no need to ...
After lunch, Hachiman proceeded to Yui's classroom to return her bento box. As he approached the door, a girl with shoulder-length hair and glasses exited the classroom.
"Hello, if it isn't Hikigaya-kun."
"You're... Ebina-san, Yui's friend, right?"
The girl before Hachiman was indeed one of Yui's close friends, Ebina Hina.
Lunchtime arrived on the rooftop.
Hachiman and Utaha occupied a bench, savoring their respective bento boxes.
Ever since their excursion to the amusement park, where they gathered material for Utaha's novel, she had taken up the practice of preparing her own bento. Surprisingly, her culinary creations were diverse and delicious. Hachim...
