The Desire to Win Preparations are underway for the school's athletic festival. Izumi-kun was hoping to avoid being placed in the highlight event, the boys and girls mixed relay, but unluckily enough, that's exactly what he's chosen for. But Shikimori-san and all of their friends end up on the relay team with him, so he feels like it'll actually be fun this time.

Hachimitsu seems to be in very low spirits before their event starts...
