Ebihara, extorted by junior Tashiro, discovers he's less scary and strange than initially perceived.
Ebihara gets extorted by Tashiro, his junior in college. They somehow end up hanging out together after that, and Ebihara slowly begins to realize that Tashiro may not be as frightening or as weird as he appears to be at first glance. (Source: Libre, translated)
