Ikuto adjusts to the low tech life of the island but his self-esteem takes repeated beatings as the girls show themselves to be so much more skilled at all the hard work of rural living. But he manages to salvage his manly pride by saving Rin, the Natsumi Tsujimoto strong woman of the island, from that dreaded enemy of the Keroseijin, the Nyororo. Further boost with Suzu telling him that she had felt lonely, being the only one living on her own and that she’s glad that Ikuto is coming home together with her after work, eating together and sleeping together (not in that way!). She says, ‘We are like family.’ The question is: like husband and wife? Or brother and sister? Or a 13 year old non-blood-related sister wanting to marry her brother!?
