＜ Comments
ED theme: Inori Minase
My first impression of the two of them was that they were so bouncy even in their songs! That was my first impression.
Even though it is a duet song, they don't compromise with each other, and I was relieved to see how they clashed with each other, each maintaining their own individuality. Also, Kurou sings in a sweet, sweet way so that she can express her devilishness in her singing voice, which is also noteworthy? It is also noteworthy...!
The original work has tremendous power, so we are working hard on the postrecording so that the anime version will give it even more of a boost. We are determined to play out the feelings and adolescence of each character with great care, so please continue to look forward to it!

Ayane Sakura, ED theme songwriter
Please enjoy the black-and-white duo who are also working hard together on the music.
I thought to myself that Inori Minase and Ayane Sakura's voices are well balanced... (laughs).
I'm a little excited to think that this song will end the catfight in the film. Please look forward to seeing ″Osamake″ in the animation.

＜INTRODUCTION
She smiles secretly only at me.

The other woman, Kachi Hakuso, is an Akutomi Award-winning high school writer!　She is also a beautiful girl!
I know that I, Haru Marusue, an ordinary high school student, am not worthy of her!
But I think she's got a pulse, probably, definitely!
I was thinking ...... Kachi has a boyfriend!

I was depressed, and my childhood friend Shida Kurou, who is loli cute, cheerful and caring,...... and who for some reason has no hesitation in professing her love for me, told me: ......
Let's get revenge."

The resentment of first love is deeper than the ocean - but it's never dark!　It's not droll!
Revenge for first love is on the move!
