Kanade has joined the karuta club as the third member, while Chihaya continues to recruit members.  First, she scouts the second-smartest student in their grade, Komano Tsutomu, who happens to be in her class.  Chihaya calls him Desktomu-kun.  However, he tells her that karuta is just a game and he would rather spend that time studying.  Chihaya insists that Desktomu-kun play a game first and she drags him to the clubroom.

and hate my fellow man
Para mí con toda mi tristeza, 
es un lugar de miseria.
Para mí con toda mi tristeza, 
es un lugar de miseria.
Aprendi tanto a amar quanto 
a odiar meu semelhante
