History
PastRenako wasn't always an introvert; on the contrary, she used to be quite proactive. In elementary school, she was close friends with Kaho Minaguchi, whom she met at a cram school. However, in middle school, she was isolated by a small group after refusing an invitation from a female classmate. She didn't make any new friends throughout middle school, which led to her introverted personality. She originally lived a lonely life in middle school, but after seeing her elementary school classmate's SNS and learning that her old friend was living a fulfilling life, she decided to change in high school. Through a major makeover by her younger sister Haruna and hard work in her studies, she finally got into a high school where she knew no one, determined to live a high school life where she could make best friends. Novel Volume 1Having spent middle school alone, Renako was determined to debut as an extrovert in high school and successfully became friends with Mai Ohtsuka, joining her small group. Two months later, unable to keep up with the extroverted pace, Renako went to the rooftop to relax. Mai thought Renako was going to jump and came to her rescue. After the two fell into a tree together and had a heart-to-heart talk, Renako was confessed to by Mai the next day. Renako, wanting a friendship rather than a romantic relationship, eventually reached an agreement with Mai to have a "lovers on some days, friends on others" relationship to compete and decide which is better. However, even though Renako wants to prove the merits of being Mai's best friend, Mai will not be satisfied with just being friends... Faced with Mai's advances, bathing together, and even having her first kiss taken away, Renako's feelings began to shift. However, Mai had to go to Paris for a while for work. Renako went out to play with Ajisai Sena and later invited Ajisai to her home, only for Mai, who returned early from Paris, to suddenly appear at Renako's doorstep. Afterward, Satsuki Koto, who had listened to Mai's confession and was even asked by Mai to sleep with her, talked to Renako. Combining this with information from Ajisai, Renako rushed to the Akasaka hotel they had visited before, only to find that Mai was planning a matchmaking party, inviting everyone who had ever confessed to her: she believed she had forced and hurt Renako, who didn't like her, and wanted to punish herself by dating someone she didn't truly love. Before the party started, Renako reached Mai and conveyed her feelings through persuasion and a kiss, and the two reconciled—the matchmaking party was canceled. Renako still didn't want to choose a romantic relationship with Mai, wanting instead to be "Koitomo" (Bestie-Lovers), a relationship that is both best friends and lovers, but Mai, who insisted on a romantic relationship, would not be satisfied, and a new competition began... Novel Volume 2Satsuki, who was in a cold war with Mai due to her previous words, talked to Renako, expressing her desire for revenge against Mai and then confessed to Renako. Satsuki's revenge was to date Renako for two weeks to strike a blow to Mai, and then reconcile with her. Renako agreed, and the two began their days playing lovers. Satsuki and Renako's intimacy made Mai realize Satsuki was planning something, but as long as Renako could return in the end, Mai didn't care. While out with Haruna, Renako discovered Satsuki working a part-time job. Following her to Satsuki's home, Renako met Satsuki's mother and discovered a less cold side of Satsuki. Renako stayed overnight at Satsuki's house, To end the cold war, Mai decided to have a proper talk with Satsuki. During the conversation between Mai, Satsuki, and Renako, Satsuki denied liking Mai, while Mai insisted she did, leading to an argument. Satsuki finally played her trump card, stating she was dating Renako and showing the kissing photo. Even though Renako explained it was just a temporary relationship, Mai was deeply shocked by Renako's "infidelity," while Satsuki was triumphant. To fight for Renako's future belonging, Mai and Satsuki decided to have a showdown, and Renako joined in, demanding that if she won, her relationship with them would stay as it was and the two would have to reconcile. The competition event was a shooting game chosen by Renako. Satsuki came to Renako's house to practice the game and proactively kissed Renako, then stayed the night. In the match, the first to win two rounds won. After Mai and Renako each won a round, Satsuki went to the restroom due to the pressure of not being able to beat Mai. After kissing Renako, Satsuki regained her composure. In the third round, she killed Mai, who showed a vulnerability while Satsuki talked about her past with Mai and the feelings she held. However, Satsuki talking about how much she liked Renako didn't stop Renako from killing her... Renako won the match, and Mai and Satsuki reconciled. Novel Volume 3During summer vacation, Ajisai invited Renako to her house. Renako saw Ajisai getting angry at her two younger brothers and sensed her troubles in taking care of them, which made Ajisai feel depressed after being seen. After returning home, Renako received a call from Ajisai, learning she planned to run away from home the next Ajisai's travel destination was a hot spring inn. Ajisai wanted to cover all the expenses, while Renako, who insisted on splitting the bill, wanted to settle it with a game of ping-pong. During this time, the two came to understand each other's thoughts better. In the end, Ajisai still had the upper hand in the match, and in exchange for fulfilling Renako's request to split the bill, Renako had to soak in the open-air hot spring with Ajisai, The next day, Ajisai-chan, who didn't want to get out of bed, acted spoiled towards Renako, wanting to be the In the evening, the three went to the festival together. While Renako was away for a while, Mai told Ajisai that she liked Renako, but Renako hadn't agreed to date her yet. Mai also asked Ajisai if she liked Renako too. Ajisai, not wanting to hurt anyone, initially tried to suppress her feelings, but when she saw Renako return, she realized just how much she loved her. Back at the inn, the three soaked in the hot springs together. The next day, they set off for home one after another, but the feelings Ajisai wanted to express to Renako at the station were drowned out by the sound of the train. Ajisai returned home safely and later visited Renako's house, but her subsequent tears caught Renako's attention, leading Renako to contact Mai for advice. Ajisai told Mai that she did indeed like Renako, and Mai supported Ajisai in confessing to her. In the park, Ajisai confessed to Renako, and to Mai's surprise, Renako accepted the confession. Novel Volume 4Having accepted Ajisai's confession on impulse, Renako fell into a state of confusion and eventually made a promise with Ajisai to give her an answer in a month. School started, but Renako was still mired in her troubles. While looking at old photos, Renako discovered that her good friend from cram school in elementary school, Kaho Minaguchi—a gloomy girl with glasses—was likely Kaho Koyanagi. During lunch break the next day, Renako asked Kaho if she was the person in the photo. Kaho, thinking Renako was threatening her, picked up humanity's oldest weapon—a stone—but after hearing Renako's explanation, they agreed to talk more after school. Kaho hadn't forgotten Renako, and after a long chat, Renako began to pour out her troubles about being unable to choose between Mai and Ajisai, both of whom liked her—leading to a fight with Kaho, who thought she was just bragging. A few days after their relationship soured, Renako saw Kaho and Satsuki arguing about something. After a series of apologies to Renako, Kaho shifted the work she wanted Satsuki to do onto Renako. Eventually, Renako was brought to Kaho's home, where it turned out the job was a cosplay photoshoot as Kaho's partner. When the day of the shoot arrived, the photoshoot made Renako want to back out, but she completed it anyway. To address Renako's shyness, Kaho recorded a bunch of ASMR for her, hypnotizing Renako into having higher self-esteem, and they successfully got through a second photoshoot together. Afterward, Kaho took Renako to a love hotel for a celebratory girls' party and even bathed with her. However, once Kaho took off her contact lenses, she could no longer maintain her "normie" cosplay. Kaho was invited to participate in a cosplay summit in Makuhari, and though she initially wanted to refuse, she was encouraged by Renako. Mai invited Renako and Ajisai on a date but made an excuse not to show up. Renako and Ajisai spent time together at the amusement park, and Renako finally made up her mind about how to handle her relationships with Mai and Ajisai. Kaho decided to participate in the cosplay summit and asked Renako to be her partner. Renako eventually agreed, and the two were to perform on stage. On that day, Satsuki was teamed up with someone else. Renako felt some stage fright, while Kaho, unable to find her contact lenses, had reverted to her former insecure, gloomy self. Facing Kaho's inferiority complex, Renako pointed out that Kaho shouldn't be so self-deprecating when she had such outstanding qualities and urged her to do what she had always wanted to do. Ultimately, they took the stage together. Although their final results weren't great, Kaho was still very happy. Ajisai also arrived, as it turned out Mai was to give a speech at the end of the event. When Mai asked Ajisai to come on stage, Renako was pushed onto the stage as well by Satsuki, Ajisai, and Kaho. There, realizing that Mai was already prepared to step aside for her and Ajisai, Renako plucked up her courage and told Mai and Ajisai that she wanted all three of them to date together. Thus, Renako gained two lovers, Ajisai and Mai, at the same time. |
