College student Kazuya Kinoshita continues renting Chizuru Mizuhara as his pretend girlfriend, but the lie is fraying — Mami Nanami suspects the arrangement and Kazuya's grandmother Nagomi adores Chizuru without knowing the truth. Ruka Sarashina still presses her claim as Kazuya's "trial girlfriend," while Kazuya himself wrestles with feelings for Chizuru that are no longer part of the act. This second TV season picks up directly from the first.
