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.
