Report 129

Plot
Chizuru tells Arata that part of the reason she volunteered for the executive committee was because she wanted to use the chance to have memorable experiences. However, she also did it because she wants to change, despite the painful memories brought back by her getting involved with others. While she credits Arata with influencing her to want to do it, he feels conflicted for encouraging her to make good memories as his being a ReLIFE subject means any memories of him will be lost.

In return Chizuru asks why Arata wanted to be in the committee. He gives the same justification as Ryō used in the discussion earlier that it helps with university admissions by compensating for his low grades. Thinking about his response, Chizuru realizes that it means Arata is less likely to be an adult like she has been suspecting, as then he would not care about getting into a university.

Later Arata leads the meeting to decide on the class project for the festival, but nobody is showing any interest in discussing the matter. He tries to motivate the class, telling them that this is their last chance to work on a project like this and they should make sure they don't have regrets when they become adults, and while Chizuru and Ms. Amatsu take note, the class remains silent. Having had enough of not making any progress, Chizuru writes her suggestions for the project on the blackboard and tells the class that she wants them to think about the ideas and that they will then decide on the project by vote, stunning everyone with her dictatorial behavior.

On her report on the events An notes that now she understands why Ryō wanted her to watch Chizuru's actions during the project. Chizuru has inadvertently caused problems with similar behavior in her past workplaces, and An notes that it would be a major step forward for Chizuru if she manages to work on the project together with everyone.
