1Now I Can See the Lovemeter2026-04-066 minLacking the courage to confess to my childhood friend, Marika, I make a strong wish upon a shooting star. And now, I can see the lovemeters over the girls in my class. Confused by this surreal sight, I look over at Marika, only to find that her meter's had a total meltdown to rotten depths...?! Marika, why is it that you were always so kind to me, then...? What is the real meaning behind the lovemeter...?
2The Highs and Lows of the Lovemeter2026-04-136 minI've got to do something about my crush, Marika's completely broken lovemeter. First, I figured I should get along with Toyotomi, whose lovemeter is low, but she treats me so harshly, I get discouraged quickly. However, after school, when I help a crying girl at the usual park and take her home, it was Toyotomi's house?! Apparently, the girl was Toyotomi's younger sister! As soon as she invites me to have dinner together as thanks, her lovemeter goes up...
3The Awakening of the Lovemeter2026-04-206 minRacking my brains over what to do with Marika's lovemeter, I bump into my classmate, Mikasa, who was walking her dog at the usual park. Being fellow dog-lovers and sparking conversation over them, her lovemeter is high. I try to act uncool in order to lower Mikasa's lovemeter for the sake of my true love, Marika, but on the contrary...?! Unbeknownst to me, Marika, passing by, witnesses the whole thing...
4The Unstoppable Lovemeter2026-05-046 minOn this day, Marika's lovemeter was completely possessed by a raged and jealous demoness, while she herself had a blank expression. I keep doing my best to approach Marika, not wanting to be disliked. No matter what I did though, she wouldn't smile. But I won't give up. Then, taking a chance, I successfully ask Marika out on a date during lunchtime! But Toyotomi appears before us, and the lovemeter undergoes a sudden change?! In response to that, Marika's lovemeter...
5The Ever-Soaring Lovemeter2026-05-116 minI was up on cloud nine after finally landing a date with my beloved Marika at the aquarium. She loves seals, and seeing her carefree smile made it all worth it. But even though I wanted to take things further, I just couldn't muster the courage... Then, during the dolphin show, we end up getting soaked to the bone! Having prepared a change of clothes just in case, I head to our respective changing rooms... But then, the unthinkable happened?!
6The Invisible Lovemeter2026-05-186 minNiino, a tomboyish returnee, transfers to our school, and the boys are buzzing with excitement. For some reason, I couldn't see Niino's lovemeter, but she felt strangely familiar. Why is it that Marika's smiling at me, while my heart's racing over Niino's beauty...? After school, Niino and I end up walking home together and we arrive at the usual park. This place holds so many childhood memories with Marika... Wait, could you be that girl from my memories of playing in the park...?!

I feel like I'm being suffocated by all these lovemeters... Just as I thought hard for everyone not to fight over me, I get baptized by the lovemeter only I can see, and I'm on the verge of death. Somehow I manage to confess to Marika, saying she's the one I truly love, but... With that, Marika's lovemeter goes even more completely haywire???!!
