|ShortSummary        = Normal girl Yoshino Somei is furious when her Yakuza grandfather Renji arranges her engagement to Kirishima Miyama, grandson of another Yakuza family. Yoshino has no interest in being Yakuza but agrees to meet Kirishima. Travelling to Tokyo she moves into Kirishima’s family home and transfers to his high school.  There, the girls dislike her as they have crushes on Kirishima. Yoshino becomes suspicious when she sees Kirishima covered in blood. After an altercation with thugs Yoshino sees Kirishima’s Yakuza tattoos. Kirishima drops his “normal” act and reveals his disappointment that she turned out boring, as he was hoping she would be as twisted as he is and satisfy his masochistic fetish for chaos. He offers to employ her as a prostitute, implying her only value is her body. Yoshino becomes upset, then feels worse when the girls vandalise her belongings. Renji challenges her to make Kirishima fall in love with her, before breaking his heart. Yoshino disappears for two weeks then returns and informs Kirishima she did “sell her body”, by selling her kidney for ¥4 Million which she throws in his face before threatening the girls. Her contempt activates his masochism and he begs her to marry him and ruin his life, disturbing her greatly.

|ShortSummary        = Yoshino decides to visit her cousin Tsubaki, so Kirishima goes with her. Yoshino is concerned Tsubaki is exactly Kirishima’s type of woman. Like Kirishima, Tsubaki keeps several lovers and has no problem including Kirishima if Yoshino doesn’t care, exasperating Yoshino. Tsubaki also idolises Renji as the ideal man, despite him being her grandfather. Tsubaki deduces Kirishima craves attention from Yoshino in a way he doesn’t with other women. The school suddenly calls, reminding Yoshino she forgot to submit some paperwork, so she takes a taxi home. Left alone with Tsubaki, Kirishima reveals he knows her stepfather is a Director in the Doseikai Medical Group, infamous for illegal organ transplants, meaning Tsubaki is who Yoshino approached to sell her kidney. Kirishima is confident Tsubaki cares about Yoshino too much to actually do it, so she must have faked the surgery without Yoshino knowing. Tsubaki admits she never removed Yoshino’s kidney, she just took enough blood to make Yoshino sick and believe the surgery was real. Tsubaki is confident Yoshino is currently in no danger, but warns Kirishima she is perfectly capable of relocating Yoshino where he will never find her. Later, Yoshino is furious to learn Kirishima traded Tsubaki a photo of Renji as a teenager in exchange for a photo of Yoshino in a bikini.

Before Shoma can leave he is confronted by the man with the red perm. Seeing his plan coming apart Ozu abandons Yoshino who telephones Kirishima angry he ignored her instructions. Kirishima claims it was necessary to keep Ozu's thugs away from her. Yoshino yells at him for causing trouble in her family's territory and warns him either to return to Tokyo and never speak to her again, or catch Ozu or die trying. Impressed by her sudden ruthlessness Kirishima offers her a bet; if he can deal with Ozu by midnight then Yoshino has to marry him on his 18th birthday. Unimpressed, Yoshino changes the bet slightly; if Kirishima can catch Ozu and defeat her, all by midnight, then she will be his girlfriend until they graduate from college.

|ShortSummary        = Kirishima, Yoshino, Ozu and the Filipino's converge on a public park. Yoshino follows Ozu and the Filipino leader Naoya and overhears that the dangerous yakuza Ozu met is called Azami. A year previously Azami did Ozu a favour by getting rid of the girls trying to expose Ozu's porn business. Azami then disappeared but reappeared recently to demand Ozu get rid of Kirishima for him. Annoyed, Naoya beats up Ozu then catches Yoshino spying. Kirishima lures the remaining thugs towards the park entrance. Yoshino taunts Naoya over his amateur plan falling apart then, after failing to knock him out, she is forced to run. Kirishima causes a power cut and in the dark is able to take down the Filipino's until he is confronted by Azami. Azami claims his target is actually Yoshino and Kirishima realises he is Azami Suo. The lights come back on and Azami chooses to leave to avoid the police, but tells Kirishima to pass his greetings to Yoshino. Yoshino is able to knock Naoya out with a stun gun. Meanwhile, the man with the red perm is summoned away from his fight with Shoma, but warns Shoma that Yoshino and Kirishima will soon cause a war. Ozu awakens and finds he has been captured by Yoshino and Kirishima.

|ShortSummary        = With no actual evidence of Ozu's crimes Kirishima resorts to blackmail; threatening to expose that Ozu's mother has been cheating on her husband unless Ozu leaves Nao alone. Ozu agrees, especially when Nao and Shoma appear with Nao having recorded their conversation. Shoma is certain the red perm man is not a yakuza. Kirishima breaks up with Nao and she warns Kirishima it is obvious Yoshino does not like him. With Shoma gone Kirishima meets with Yoshino who reveals she figured out everything he has been up to because she has been following him in secret for days with the tracker she hid in the keychain she gave him. Kirishima admits he knew the tracker was there, which Yoshino takes as proof he has genuine feelings for her. He cared enough to keep the keychain even with the tracker; if he did not care he would have just thrown it away. Amused by her logic Kirishima reminds her of their bet; he defeated Ozu before midnight, making Yoshino his girlfriend. Yoshino reminds him the bet included defeating her as well. Kirishima easily defeats her at Rock, Paper, Scissors meaning Yoshino lost the bet. Elsewhere another dangerous man is pleased both Yoshino and Kirishima are in Osaka.
