Suzu makes Suzu-dumplings, trying to become friends with Shirogane. Matsuri sees her and reminisces about the times he admired her for her ability to befriend ayakashi. That's when they get a visit from the Lightning-Fast Exorcist Ninja, Ninokuru Souga.

Matsuri does his best to fit in as one of Suzu's girl friends, but he doesn't know how to act around Yayoi and Lucy. Yayoi, in turn, wants to get to know Matsuri better too, but she keeps tripping and getting up close and personal, which complciates matters. She believes Matsuri despises her now, but the cause was actually an ayakashi!
