The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity episode 3 recap
The episode begins with Rintaro and Shohei hearing from their homeroom teacher, Tsukada, that they cannot participate in the sports festival if they fail their upcoming midterm tests. Worried about the exams, Shohei asks Saku for help. However, Saku directly tells him that he cannot help this time, as he doesn't want to bring down his grades.
After a minor disagreement with Saku, Shohei takes Rintaro to the library to study together. However, the reality quickly settles in, as the duo realizes that they can't understand anything. At the library, Rintaro asks Shohei to reconcile with Saku. Once Saku leaves, Rintaro notices Kaoruko studying with her friend.
He wonders how a dropout from Chidori got involved with such a studious girl from Kikyo. Later, Kaoruko finds Rintaro outside the library struggling with a question. Interestingly, Rintaro is able to solve the question with her guidance. During a conversation, Rintaro discovers that Kaoruko isn't from an affluent family, and she enrolled in Kikyo through a scholarship.
That's why she works harder than anyone. Determined not to fail his tests, Rintaro requests Kaoruko if she can guide him during her free time. Kaoruko says she would do that gladly. At this moment, one of Kaoruko's friends, Subaru Hoshina, appears at the scene. Subaru identifies Rintaro as a Chidori student and tells him to avoid interacting with Kaoruko.
Just then, Rintaro's friends, including Saku and Shohei, arrive at the scene. Rintaro blocks Shohei when he gets too close to Kaoruko. Likewise, Saku makes fun of the Kikyo girls and calls them rich princesses. Rintaro immediately reprimands Saku for his comments and apologizes for the misunderstanding.
He lies about approaching Kaoruko, while it was the other way around in truth. Shohei and Kaoruko then apologize for the trouble they caused. Kaoruko asks Subaru to apologize as well, but she leaves in anger. Later, when Subaru asks Kaoruko about Rintaro, she describes him as a kind person.
Later at night, Rintaro still struggles with his studies. At this moment, Kaoruko messages him and asks if she can call. On the phone call, Kaoruko confirms the date for their study session and states that she has been less polite with him lately. Thus, she promises to be more polite.
However, Rintaro says it's fine for her to speak informally. As soon as he mentions that, Kaoruko can't contain her smile. The episode ends with the duo looking forward to their study session on Saturday.
What to expect in The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity episode 4? (speculative)
The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity episode 4 will continue the adaptation from chapter 5 of Saka Mikami's rom-com manga. The episode is expected to focus on Rintaro and Kaoruko's study date.
The former will likely tell his new friend about why he badly wants to clear the tests. Additionally, the episode may shed light on a conversation between Rintaro and Subaru Hoshina.
