Rent-A-Girlfriend season 4 episode 1 recap
The episode kicked off with a flash-forward scene, where Kazuya appeared to be confessing his feelings to Chizuru. The episode then switched to the current events and focused on Kazuya. With the Summer breaks over, Kazuya returned to University. On his way, he met Kuri, whom he didn't initially recognize due to his tanned skin.
Kuri explained that he enjoyed the beach five times during the summer break. Meanwhile, Kazuya spotted his other friend, Kibe, dating one of Chizuru's friends. At that moment, Mini Yaemori appeared and greeted Kazuya and Kuri. Kazuya was visibly surprised that Mini and Kuri knew each other. Apparently, they were next-door neighbors.
Later, Kazuya went to the Karaoke for his part-time job stint and met Ruka, who wore a maid's costume handpicked by the manager. Kazuya told Ruka about how he used the rental date to cheer up Chizuru, who was down following the incident with her grandmother. Ruka let it slide, but she wanted some emotional support from Kazuya.
She suggested they go on a trip to a hot spring together. However, the duo eventually settled for a trip to the neighborhood public bath. The next day, Kazuya thought about Chizuru while being in the public bath. Suddenly, Ruka appeared wearing a gorgeous yukata she purchased specifically to experience a "going-home-from-summer-festival-vibe" with Kazuya.
While returning home, Kazuya put his coat around Ruka, who was slightly angry at him for not keeping up with her fantasies. The boy thought about how great Ruka was. Yet, he couldn't lie to himself that he loved Chizuru more. Meanwhile, after returning home, Kazuya received a text from Chizuru, asking him if he was free on the upcoming weekend.
Kazuya nervously replied that he was. Following that, Chizuru sent him a restaurant location and asked him to meet at 11 am. The boy kept daydreaming about the "date" and ended up sleep-deprived on the day he was supposed to meet Chizuru. Kazuya noticed that Chizuru appeared as Ichinose, not as her Mizuhara avatar.
At the restaurant, Kazuya heard a few customers gossiping about them being on a date. Meanwhile, Chizuru broke the silence and pulled an envelope with cash from her bag. She gave it to Kazuya as a sign of apology regarding how unprofessional she had been on their previous date. Kazuya was angry at Chizuru and reminded her that she wasn't wrong at all.
Chizuru realized Kazuru's point of view and took back the money. She also mentioned that she could be a bit soft at times. Following their meeting, the episode delved into Kazuya's monologue, where he mentioned wanting to be a pillar of Chizuru's weak side. The episode ended with the boy inviting Chizuru for lunch.
What to expect in Rent-A-Girlfriend season 4 episode 2?
