| Ryuuji Takasu is starting his second year of high school but his appearance resembles that of a delinquent thug because of his glaring eyes. He hopes to make friends with his crush Minori Kushieda, but accidentally bumps into and is chewed out by Taiga Aisaka, a petite sharp-tongued classmate known as the Palmtop Tiger and who is best friends with Minori. He later discovers that Taiga has mistakenly placed in his bag a love letter to his only friend Yusaku Kitamura. As Taiga comes to his apartment to attack him to recover the letter (which is actually just an empty envelope), Ryuuji stops her and she faints from starvation. Ryuuji and Taiga make a deal where they will help each other meet their crushes. Ryuuji discovers Taiga lives alone in the apartment complex next door and has a dirty kitchen, so he cleans her area and offers to cook for her. During gym class, Ryuuji and Taiga try to create a situation where Taiga would be left alone with Yusaku but it backfires as Ryuuji hits Taiga on the head with a ball instead. They try to set up a lunch double date, but Yusaku and Minori are called away for activities. At the end of school, Taiga tries to give Yusaku a bag of cookies she had made in home economics class, but Yusaku rushes off that she can't catch up. The next day, the classmates think Ryuuji and Taiga are a couple since they spend so much time together, that Minori gets worried and pulls them aside. The bonus chapter follows a typical day at home for Yasuko Takasu, Ryuuji's mother who works nights at a hostess in a night club. |

| Minori pulls Taiga and Ryuji aside and gives the two her blessing as a couple; to make it worse, Yusaku joins her in supporting them. Taiga and Ryuji are shocked. After dinner out, Taiga releases Ryuji from serving her. She causes a disruption at school in order to quell the rumors. She then asks Yusaku to meet her after school. Ryuji observes her as Taiga finally confesses her love to Yusaku, but Yusaku reveals she had rejected him a year ago, and that they should be just friends. Afterwards, Ryuji rushes to support Taiga; they agree to continue working together. They frequent a family restaurant where Minorin works as a waitress. Ami Kawashima, a popular teen fashion model and Yusaku's childhood friend, visits the place, but while she has a great celebrity personality on the surface, she flirts with Ryuji, and turns cold and mean to Taiga while Ryuji and Yusaku observe from afar. Ami later joins their class as a transfer student. The bonus chapter follows Ryuji and Taiga as they look for a place to stay cool. |
