Synopsis[]
Kintama Hunt Saga[]
Acrobatic Silky Arc[]
Tsubame and Anzu join up with Aira after she met Okarun and delightfully discuss how she toyed with his feelings. They then become shocked to see a basin suddenly falling on top of Aira's head and Tsubame wonders how it fell down on her as there was nobody nearby. They then see Momo passing by as she snipes at them, which leads to them looking back at the basin in suspicion.
The next day, the two girls manage to find a cross and a book to perform an exorcism, but Tsubame is still unsure about Aira's decision. Aira then claims that she was chosen to save the world, so Tsubame decides to believe her because they are friends, although she can't deny her recent weirdness. When the woman in the red dress appears, Tsubame tells Aira that they cannot see her while the girls believes that she's Momo Ayase's familiar. A couple of boys then arrive to court Aira, so the girl instructs the two with hand signs that they would proceed after school. When the time came, Tsubame and Anzu ambushed Momo and tied her up to have Aira go through with her delusionary attempt to exorcise her. Momo then used her psychic powers to push the two girls off of her and knocks them unconscious after launching them into a wall.
Serpo Arc[]
Tsubame and Anzu came to pick her up from the nurse's office after her incident at school where she was seen in her underwear, along with Momo and Okarun. They grabbed Aira and brought her outside the infirmary while Tsubame accused Momo that this incident was her own doing. Back in class, Tsubame began to badmouth her along with their other classmates as they try to console Aira, claiming that she has been harassing Aira starting from the fallen washbin. After Aira admits to being the one to spread the nasty false rumor about Momo, the two girls became shocked by this news and chose to stop associating themselves with her from then on as to not get excluded by their class.
Evil Eye Arc[]
After this event the girls, along with Aira's classmates, distance themselves from Aira when they see her in the classroom. However, they're all surprised to suddenly see Momo and Okarun drag Aira out of the classroom.
Space Globalists Arc[]
Tsubame and Anzu are briefly spotted conversating with other students in class while Kinta looks for Aira.
Volume 16 Omake[]
One day, the Evil Eye observed that Aira was always alone and her classmates kept their distance from her, though he noticed that Tsubame and Anzu might have regretted their decision but did not follow through and return to her. He thus confronted the girls in the hallway, holding them still and visibly making them blush, demanding to know why they did not talk to her anymore. The girls explaining that their popularity would suffer as a result of associating with Aira again, but Evil Eye managed to convince them to make amends with their friend. During lunch, the girls remorsefully approached Aira, and apologized for their actions, hoping to be friends with her again, with Aira accepting them back.
Volume 19 Omake[]
The three girls slowly rekindle their friendship, with Momo taking notice. Not wanting to interrupt them, she decides not to ask Aira to accompany her and Okarun to Renjaku High School to look for Unji.
