My Friend's Little Sister Has It In for Me! (友達の妹が俺にだけウザい)

I'm very good at seeing people for who they are.

That's why you can't bring yourself to betray your mom

and things between you and Ozu are awkward.

Senpai is the one who changed me and showed me a new world.

So it's only when I'm around him that I'm able to stop analyzing people.

That's why I tend to take advantage of him.

I feel bad, but...

Want to do some shopping with me tomorrow?

Huh?!

I'll ask the others, too.

Instead of just being my friend's sister,

why don't we try being friends for a change?

I thought he was asking me out on a date and got all excited! Unbelievable!

I mean, that's just who Senpai is, though.

Also, how could I get so worked up over an invite like that?! Am I really that weak?!

I bet my brother will catch a clue and bow out,

and Sumire-chan-sensei will refuse to hang out with students on a day off.

But... not her.

I'm positive she'll come along.

My woman's intuition is telling me

that Mashiro-senpai likes Senpai for sure!

My ongoing showdown with Senpai will have to be put on hold.

Today, it's me versus Mashiro-senpai!

It's on!

I won't lose!

MY FRIEND'S LITTLE SISTER HAS IT IN FOR ME!

#06 "MY FRIEND'S LITTLE SISTER HAS IT IN FOR MY FRIEND'S ENEMY"

Just three of us at this IRL meetup?

Hey!

Senpai, you're late!

How could you make a girl wait? Unbelievable!

Scum.

Why do you two harmonize so well only when it comes to dissing me?

Okay, well, now that we're all here...

Wh-What the heck are you doing?!

Why, I'm linking arms with you, of course!

All friends do that, don't they?

Don't approach me like you would another girl!

Nothing about this makes sense!

I can't help it.

The only kinds of friendly physical contact I know are the ones used between girls!

Th-This little...

H-Hey!

I-If it's a normal thing between friends, I have to do it, too.

It's not normal!

I-I don't believe you!

If you'll do it with Iroha-chan, I'm doing it, too.

I have no words.

Look at us! We're a legit harem!

Senpai, you're totally the protagonist of a harem story right now!

Y-You...

Man, my stomach hurts. I'm gonna die.

You're laughing way too much! You should be as embarrassed as me!

- Get off! - Nope!

My own shame doesn't matter as long as I'm making you uncomfortable!

She is such a pain in the ass.

Okay, fine. Let's go see a movie first.

Come on, off we go!

This one!

This one!

This one's a huge hit!

It's the obvious choice for a couple to see together!

We're not a couple.

Movies that cater to the masses are boring.

Sharks are befitting of early summer.

Why should I have to waste a precious day off watching a crappy movie like that?

You don't get it, Iroha-chan.

Low-budget B movies inspire tears. Just think of the financial constraints!

- I want to cry at the film, not the production! - I don't even care either way.

So you're content with artificial tears from carefully calculated stimuli?

That's so systematic. No different from cutting onions.

Thinking you're cool for defying the masses is the opposite of cool, Mashiro-senpai.

Then could you speak at length on the appeal of this film?

On what level do you appreciate it?

How can you be sure you're not just regurgitating other people's opinions?

Oh, now you've picked a fight!

You've challenged me to a duel!

Don't blame me if you suffer a humiliating defeat and cry later.

I'll have you know I've seen more movies than you could even imagine.

By letting yourself into my place and watching them on streaming services.

Well, your house is my house, basically!

Watching movies... at Aki's place?

More than I could imagine? You're there that frequently?!

That's right! Practically every day, in fact!

Okay, Iroha, cut it out.

If you're gonna fight this much, we'll all see what we want to see

and meet back here when we're done.

Perfect solution, right?

Vetoed!

- Yeah. Vetoed. - Why?!

What even made you think that suggestion would fly?

A group of friends going to a theater to watch separate movies is double unbelievable!

Garbage men who don't understand women's hearts should die.

They could at least show a little mercy.

Let's take the democratic approach, then.

Rock, paper...

MY FOE'S NAME

That was pretty fun in the end, huh?

Right?!

Don't be a pain.

Oh, I'll be right back.

- Bathroom? - Okay, you just lost points.

What, even that counts as inappropriate? That's kinda harsh!

You just take things too loosely.

Oh, want to tag along, Mashiro-senpai?

No, I'm fine.

Oh... Okay.

Well, back in a minute, then!

Nerves getting to you?

Well... Yeah.

I still don't really know how to deal with Iroha-chan.

Yeah, she's a real pain, isn't she?

Sh-She's not! I know she's not a bad person.

I actually feel bad for not knowing how to deal with her.

I'd say not knowing how to deal with Iroha is normal.

- For me, at least... - It's not!

It's not... that.

Her hyper personality reminds me... of people in my past...

who I couldn't stand.

I won't pry, but if you wanna talk about it, I'll listen.

Hey, look! It's Tsukinomori-san!

Ooh, she's with a guy!

A lovey-dovey date with a guy? That's friggin' hilarious!

Right? That's wild!

Um...

What? I can't hear you when you mumble like that.

So this is Tsukinomori-san's boyfriend? Huh?

Wow, he's a perfect match for her!

He looks like spends all his time in class reading manga in the corner!

For real! I see it!

What gives you the right to show up out of nowhere and run your mouths?

How about you try reading the room a little?

Ooh, check out Mr. Cool!

Hey, does your wonderful boyfriend know?

You know, about that.

Oh, I gotta know!

Have you had him read that adorable novel?

Stop... Don't talk about that.

What? Can't hear you!

You were keeping it secret from him, huh?

Sorry for spilling the beans.

- Oh, snap! I think she's gonna cry! - That's too crazy!

That's enough.

Whoa, what're you getting all serious for?

Your voices, your faces, your personalities... Everything about you disgusts me.

Get out of here right now.

W-Watch yourself, you useless loner!

We've got a really strong guy backing us, you know!

So what?

The people we've got backing us are a lot crazier.

I mean, it's not a lie.

One of them is a teacher who writes oneshota porn doujins.

Huh?

Uh, we might be in trouble. He looks way too confident.

Come on, let's just go.

Thanks, Shikibu!

You okay, Mashiro?

That's why you started skipping school, isn't it?

Yeah.

What was the novel they mentioned?

I-I'm...

I'm sorry!

Hey!

Oh, crap.

Senpai! What are you doing?

We have to go after her!

I'll look upstairs. You take downstairs.

Roger that!

MY FRIEND'S LITTLE SISTER HAS IT IN FOR ME!

I don't see her anywhere.

It's too inefficient to run around searching blindly.

What place is she most likely to go?

Having fun?

Never been happier.

You don't look it, though.

The girl who just died was a popular girl on the cheerleading squad.

She bullied the otaku boy.

Serves her right.

What are you here for?

To see the movie.

Liar. Stalker.

I'm sorry I keep insulting you.

Better that than being unable to insult the people who deserve it.

Throw all the insults you want.

Aki...

"You're free to hate me,"

"but if you hate me, just leave me alone."

"Quit riding my ass over every little thing, you stalker bitches."

Things would be easier if you could say that to them, huh?

Yeah.

I've always been awkward around people I didn't know.

I never fit in anywhere.

I was always alone.

S-So I started writing a novel to escape reality...

and those two girls found it.

Then they told everyone about it.

It's just cruel. It hurts being exposed like that.

Even I have my pride.

I like novels written as an escape from reality.

Huh?
