Episode 31: Sae Itoshi

Slotted as the seventh entry of the second season and the thirty-first overall, this installment carries the title Sae Itoshi and belongs to the U-20 Arc, pulling its material from chapters 114 through 117. The wiki record of the main match itself is blank, which leaves the bonus Additional Time short as the documented content.

In that short, Reo Mikage stands alone in an unlit room, muttering at his reflection until he confesses aloud that he is lost. Chigiri walks in, dryly suggests flipping on the light, and needles Reo for soaking up so many borrowed personalities that his own has fractured. Reo admits he still has not approached Nagi and has only been drilling lines at the mirror, calling himself a chameleon that misplaced its own shade.

Chigiri stays unbothered, says he expects Reo to come out fine, and pushes him to tell Nagi whatever he needs to before the chance slips away. Wishing him good night on his way out, Chigiri unwittingly points Reo toward his own unfinished business with Kunigami. Left alone, Reo keeps practicing statements that swing between warm and competitive, worries that Nagi may only remember him as part of his past, and finally snaps, branding Nagi a hassle monster. Chigiri's parting quip is that Reo has turned into the bigger nuisance.

The episode first aired on November 16, 2024. It opens with Bо̄jaku no Charisma and closes on One, follows Episode 30, and leads into Episode 32. A brief Kunigami flashback surfaces inside the bonus segment.
