Kaguya-sama: Love Is War: Season 1

On Kaguya's words, Ai switches Miyuki's coffee for a decaffeinated version, causing him to fall asleep; to Kaguya's chagrin, he sleeps on her shoulder, causing her to ask Ai to prevent anyone from entering the Student Council room. Nagisa's boyfriend approaches Miyuki and Yu for further romantic advice, though the two—later joined by Kaguya and Chika—watch in disbelief when the couple begin engaging in suggestive acts. The Student Council plays a board game created by Chika. With Miyuki's birthd

The students at Shuchiin Academy are under the impression that Shirogane is a veteran when it comes to romantic affairs, and so it is that despite the fact that Shirogane actually has no romantic experience whatsoever, a male student comes to him seeking advice on a matter of the heart. But if the truth about Shirogane's lack of experience got out, he would lose his dignity as the president of student council. So he nervously takes on the student's request with false bravado: "If it's about love

When Fujiwara glances at an unwholesome magazine confiscated by the headmaster, she notices to her dismay a survey with the question, "When was your 'first time'?" The magazine claims 34% of high school students have had that experience. Fujiwara calms a startled Shirogane by doubting the veracity of the figure, believing it to be too high, while Kaguya posits, "This percentage seems about right to me," and freely admits that she has had that experience. Shirogane, who has never been in a roman

For some reason, Kaguya and Shirogane indulge Fujiwara's idea of doing cosplay for the upcoming gathering with students from their sister school in Paris. Deep down, Kaguya thinks it's silly, but when she puts on cat ears, a subdued "meow" escapes her mouth. Moreover, that minor cosplay is an unexpected major hit with Shirogane, an avowed cat lover. He's so bowled over by her cuteness that he isn't able to maintain his usual presence of mind. The situation becomes more complicated when Shirogane

When it comes to studiousness, Shirogane is second to none, but as for athletics, he's hopeless, which is why he's training hard for volleyball in the gym after school. However, no matter what he does, Shirogane isn't showing any signs of progress. Playing volleyball for P.E. is only a week away, and at this rate, his image as the perfect president of Student Council will be crushed. Just as Shirogane gives in to despair, Fujiwara shows up. Swallowing his pride, he begs her to coach him, and so

Yu Ishigami is the fourth member of the student council. Despite being a first-year, he was scouted out by Shirogane for his talent with numbers and appointed the council's treasurer. Owing to Yu's introverted personality, he normally doesn't stand out much, but the council would fall apart without him. But one day, Yu goes to Shirogane and confesses his desire to quit the group. In fact, his mind is made up, even though Shirogane desperately tries to persuade him to stay. Apparently, the situat

After hearing Yu describe men who wear boxers as "man whores", Kaguya attempts to see Miyuki's underwear. Kaguya offers to give Miyuki a hand massage as an apology for the underwear misunderstanding, but she also has ulterior motives to increase his sexual interest in her. Miyuki, Yu, and Chika read an especially emotional shōjo manga and try to convince Kaguya to do the same. When Kaguya reads the manga, the Student Council room becomes a shōjo-like, love-filled environment as Miyuki and Yu att

As term-end exams approach, the psychological war between Kaguya and Shirogane in the student council room ramps up. Kaguya is an all-around genius, but her pride is hurt because she hasn't yet beaten Shirogane when it comes to academics. Meanwhile, when it comes to making an effort, Shirogane is second to no one and as the president of student council, he refuses to let anyone else usurp his position at the head of the class. The two of them lie through their teeth and employ wiles worthy of Ma

When Kaguya stays home from school with a cold, Shirogane tells the other council members that he's going to drop off handouts at her house, an announcement that stirs Fujiwara up as she volunteers to go in his stead. According to Fujiwara, Kaguya acts like a baby when she gets a cold. Shirogane's heart beats fast as he imagines a cute Kaguya who's upfront about what she wants, but he shoots down the idea of all the student council members barging in on Kaguya when she's sick. So, Fujiwara propo

Suspecting that her brother is in love, Kei attempts to coerce Miyuki into divulging details without appearing to be prying. Chika's attempts to teach Miyuki the Sōran Bushi dance fail, though Kaguya instead helps him, to her annoyance. While observing Yu, Kobachi reveals he had been ostracized after allegedly assaulting the boyfriend of a girl he liked in junior high; despite Yu's feud with Miko, she adds the two had discreetly supported each other. Miyuki's father attends the sports festival,

Prior to participating in the festival relay, Yu encounters his junior high classmate Kyoko Otomo. He reveals he had been shunned by his peers after attacking her boyfriend when he discovered he was cheating on her, leading to Yu's suspension; although disillusioned and vengeful, he is visited by Miyuki and is vindicated after the Student Council launches an investigation. Yu ultimately loses in the relay, but the support he receives from the cheerleading squad enables him to open his eyes and a

The headmaster takes pictures of the Student Council for a pamphlet promoting the school, but when he offers to take a group photo with Kaguya's flip phone, it is blown off the roof by a gust of wind. Although she gets a smartphone, Kaguya is heartbroken at the loss of the photos on her original phone, which the Student Council strives to resolve by uploading their own pictures to a LINE group chat. The Student Council plays a balloon inflation game, with Kaguya, Miyuki, and Yu initially showing
