White Day

To repay the chocolates Tohru saved up to buy for her friends, Momiji gives her a White Day gift: an all-expenses trip to a hot spring. Yuki and Kyo ride along in a private chartered bus to keep her company, and Tohru happily imagines herself as a princess. On arrival she meets the intimidating hostess before the group settles into their rooms and admires the garden.

Left to enjoy the bath alone, Tohru hears Momiji singing a tune of his own invention on the far side of the fence and joins in, only to grow dizzy and faint. She wakes to find Ritsu returning the photo of her mother, and the four share dinner before the hostess and head chef join them.

Trying the bath again by night, Tohru learns the hostess's child is a zodiac member born under the sign of the Monkey, and that the woman's earlier worries about an outsider have eased now that she has come to know Tohru. Indoors, Yuki and Kyo play ping pong, with Kyo refusing to go easy on Tohru. Following Yuki outside, she is teased over her clumsy swing and given his own White Day present, a hair ribbon. Thinking of her mother and the family's many princes, Tohru counts herself the luckiest girl alive.

This belongs to the 2001 adaptation and matches the story later covered by the 2019 episode You Look Like You're Having Fun. It also plants the news that Momiji and Hatsuharu will join Tohru's school and are her same age. A lighter closing beat has Shigure delighted by his own White Day gift of house-cleaning clothes, drawing Haru's dry remark that it is a wonder he has avoided arrest. Trivia explains that White Day falls a month after Valentine's Day as an occasion for boys to return gifts. It adapts chapter 18.
