Hinami then plants the seed in another friend that she doubts Konnos athletic ability.
Finally, Mizusawa tells Konno that Nakamura likes sporty girls.
Put it all together and its a home run.

But the good times only last as long as Konno doesnt know Izumi and Nakamura are an item.
Tomozaki observes a change in Hinami when Konnos target changes from Hirabayashi to Tama, one of her friends.
Tomozaki proposes that Tama takes a step back.

Hinami strongly objects to this, since Tama is in the right and shouldnt have to change.
(h/t Vance!)
One day after school, Tomozaki hangs out with Mimimi and Tama.

On the verge of tears, Mimimi asks if shes doing a good job keeping Tama in good spirits.
Its something she could only as Brain.
I love their easy chemistry.

Tomozaki answers that she is, and I agree.
When he asks if maybe it would be best to withdraw from the hostilities, she politely declines.
Tama admits it sucks, but she knows shell be fine because she knows shes in the right.

She doesnt want to betray the Hanabi who believes in things.
Tomozaki respects her choice, but is then caught off guard when she goes on complimenting him.
And while Tama knowsshellbe fine, like him shes far more worried aboutMimimi.

So shedoeswant to change for her sake, while remaining true to herself.
Since shes watched Tomozaki change, she wants him to teach her how to fight.
Firstly, I want to underscore just how awesome Natsubayashi Hanabi is this week, and in general.

In a battle of wills, Ill take her over anyone, even Hinami.
If this ends up at odds with Hinamis plans, but so be it.
