Medaka Kuroiwa Is Impervious to My Charms episode 2, titled In Love with Him, begins with Mona starting another day at school, determined to make Medaka fall for her. During art class, her attempts to charm him repeatedly fail, but she notices a classmate, Tsubomi Haruno, frequently glancing their way.

As Mona continues her efforts, she suddenly finds herself flustered when Medaka unexpectedly pays attention to her, causing her to rush out of the room, blushing.

Later, in the library, Mona tries again but notices Haruno hiding and staring at them again. Mona assumes that Haruno has a crush on Medaka and decides to impress him by pretending to be a bookworm. While Mona believes her plan has failed, Medaka secretly leaves the library flustered, struggling more than ever to resist her charms.

Fearing she might lose Medaka to Haruno, Mona investigates her but finds no apparent flaws. After an exchange with Shou, Mona comes up with a new strategy: shower Medaka with admiration to win him over. However, when she encounters Medaka alone on the rooftop and attempts to execute her plan, she finds herself unable to say the word "like", something that has never happened with anyone else.

Later, Mona and Haruno are chosen as class reps. While working together, Haruno inadvertently reveals that Mona cannot see her phone. Curious, Mona eventually discovers that Haruno's phone is filled with hundreds of her photos. Haruno admits that she's been a fan of Mona since their first day of school.

Episode 2 ends on a hilarious note as Haruno, recalling their earlier conversation, deduces that Mona has a crush on Medaka, while Mona frantically denies it in a state of awkward panic.
