Synopsis
When not enduring the supernatural phenomena that turned their first year in high school upside-down, the members of the Cultural Research Club were just average kids... give or take a standard deviation or three. Whether it's just trying to get their paper out there (despite the headline being a gossipy scandal piece), or navigating a relationship chart that looks like an anarchy symbol, they're out to live life as only they can. Perhaps this is why they attracted the attention of a bored omnipotent trickster. And who is that on the front cover?

Summary

Chapter 2 takes place after Hito Random and details Yui's first "date". Chapter 3's story occurs after the Kizu Random arc, and chronicles Inaba's early attempts at getting Taichi to fall for her.
