Episode Guide

Early in this episode, it showed that Shino was the one that gave Sawako her nickname, “Sadako”. Apparently, she was a loner ever since she was little. Then, it continues where it left off last episode.

There was commotion out the girl’s bathroom. Whisperings of the fight inside were spread from ear to ear. Kazehaya arrived with Ryu and was rather unhappy with what he heard. Yano and Yoshida arrived just when Kazehaya was defending Sawako. When they were informed what was going on, Yano and Yoshida charged ahead to the bathroom.
 

Inside the bathroom, the bullies accused Sawako for starting the rumors and of course, she was confused. They accused her is using Yano and Yoshida to get closer to Kazehaya. This time, instead of walking away or ignoring the rumors, Sawako stood up for the truth. While she was trying to explain her relationship with Yano and Yoshida, she admitted that she likes them.

Kimi Ni Todoke 02: Seating Change

Episode Guide

On a rainy day, Sawako saw a stray puppy on her way to school. Even though the puppy was aggressive towards her, she shielded it from the rain with her umbrella. Because of that, she arrived at school soaked and such a scene caused quite a stir among her schoolmates.

She was determined to interact more with people. As Kazehaya arrived, also soaked, she admired how her classmates naturally gathered around him. At the same time, Kazehaya noticed her and greeted her. This made her happy because Kazehaya still treated her normally despite the commotion she caused before the summer vacation (see last episode). Seeing Sawako wet, Kazehaya asked Yoshida for a change of cloth for her. Sawako was grateful for both the change of cloth and the towel Kazehaya gave her.

Sawako's way of greeting =)

Sawako was trying to get along with her school mates. She had always been treated as an object of fear and nicknamed as Sadako from The Ring. Her days seemed to brighten up when she met Kazehaya.  He happened to be the first one to say “Thank You” to her when she usually gets “I’m Sorry” from her school mates. For this, she aspired to be like him.

 

"I want to go too"

No! I want to work!

Kazehaya was the coordinator for the upcoming event, Test of Courage. As he said it’s an open invitation for their classmates, Sawako considered joining. Shortly after this, their teacher asked for volunteers for summer classes. When seeing that her classmates were reluctant, Sawako volunteered. However, Kazehaya interjected stating she was always the one working. When their teacher asked Kazehaya to volunteer, Sawako insisted that she wanted to work for the fear of boredom during the summer holidays.
