That's What Addictive Cabbage Tastes Like (やみつきキャベツはアレの
Summary[]
Rentarou and his 20 girlfriends were ready to dig into all-you-can-eat yakiniku, but they got addicted to cabbage. Will they be able to kick the habit and eat their fill of yakiniku!?
The yakiniku date continues to be a failure as the girls show signs they want to eat meat but continuing to eat Addictive Cabbage. Rentarou thinks of ideas of how to get them to eat the yakiniku; his first is to just eat all the cabbage in the restaurant until it sells out but realizes it will just get everyone into withdrawal which he can't have. He thinks maybe he could look up how to deal with cabbage addiction, but there is no other examples of it. His main option is to bring in some black kalbi, the best meat in the restaurant thinking that it could be enough to break the addiction with it's combination of melted fat and delicious umami. But even after sizzling some, all the girls continue to just eat the Addictive Cabbage! Even trying to make a stir-fry combining the Addictive Cabbage and the beef ends up failing with the girls all going for the cabbage and ignoring the meat!
As Rentarou runs out of options, Hahari and Naddy continue drinking alcohol, Naddy reduced to a "sad drunk" speaking perfect Japanese! Hahari offers to kiss "Nadeshiko" which she claims she doesn't deserve; but when the mother offers the Japanese teacher to kiss Rentarou instead, she accepts as the two older female start kissing Rentarou obsessively. Rentarou realizes that both Hahari and Naddy aren't eating cabbage anymore but they're not in the same withdrawal state as Kishika prior, realizing that they have an addiction to kissing that not even "Addictive Cabbage" can stop! Seeing this as his ultimate means, Rentarou places a piece of rolled up Black Kalbi in his mouth and kisses Naddy with it, delivering the meat into her as she finally enjoys it. Finally with a plan to both break the cabbage addiction and have the girls eat the yakiniku, Rentarou becomes "the tongs" as he kisses one girl after another with the yakiniku in order to save the date!
However the plan hits a snag when Rentarou completes his saving of Mei with Mai getting in the way for his kiss of "her sister"; with Rentarou realizing that he and Mai hadn't kissed yet and thus Mai doesn't have the same kissing addiction as everyone else! Angered, Mai stuffs a piece of Addictive Cabbage into Rentarou's mouth; he tries to dodge but accepts it, ultimately becoming obsessed with the cabbage until he starts melting down as the girls had prior! Mai smugly forces Rentarou to keep eating cabbage and to not kiss Mei again; but he tries to resist and eats another piece of yakiniku, Mai believing it won't be enough to break his addiction.
But without warning, Rentarou stops shaking, surprising Mai as she's shocked he's stopped eating the Addictive Cabbage. Rentarou states that when he was kissing the other girls, he had yakiniku in his mouth and thus all the kisses tasted like yakiniku, thus the taste of meat is the taste of kissing; and thus how the feeling of euphoric bliss is enough for a kiss addict. Mai remains confused as Rentarou offers to kiss her but she denies it not wanting him to kiss "her sister"; but Rentarou states he loves Mei just as much as he loves Mai; and he loves how she loves Mei as much as he loves her. As Mai is confused by the love talk, Rentarou convinces her that since the last person he kissed was Mei, kissing him would be like indirectly kissing her sister; finally understanding, Mai and Rentarou have their first kiss, delivering the yakiniku to her as Mai understands the taste of Rentarou and Mei's lips from the process.
With Mai finally tamed, Rentarou completes the "tongs" process with the other girls as they admit how amazing yakiniku is. But in the process of finishing, the girls realized Rentarou didn't eat anything in order to help them eat, thus they decide to be his tongs in delivering yakiniku to him.
