Aharen-san wa Hakarenai Season 1 Episode 12 : Masaki challenges Raido for a duel
Masaki knows more about Aharen than Raido, but she is unaware of Aharen's strong senses, which causes the latter to become aware of people keeping an eye on her. Masaki was bothered by the event on the camping trip. Initially, Masaki misinterpreted things when Aharen told her that she was not dating Raido.
Presuming that Raido has broken Aharen’s heart, Masaki wanted to challenge the former to a martial arts duel. However, as Raido was inexperienced in combat, she proposed to play reversi. Whilst playing the game, Masaki told Raido how much she cares about Aharen, and won’t let anything happen to her.
A brief flashback took viewers back to Masaki's first meeting with Aharen and how the latter inspired the former. The conditions of the game’s outcome were simple: if Raido loses, he has to forget about Aharen. Raido didn't want to lose Aharen, so he began to turn the tables when the chances seemed stacked against him.
