Farewell, Sea Otter Hot Pot Sumo Tournament (さらばラッコ
Summary[]
As Rentarou feels exhausted from his sumo matches against the girls, he also knows that five remain and he has to defeat them.
Round 10: Love Mountain vs. Clear Waters[]
Nano feels initial doubt due to being up against a "human male", but holds herself back from thinking lewd thoughts while Rentarou admires her beauty up close. Using precise calculations of his body, she goes for a collarbone attack, only to miss. She tries again with even more calculations, but slips after her second attempt due to an aching head associated with her emotions.
- Winner: Love Mountain
Round 11: Love Mountain vs. Dutiful Daffodil[]
With Chiyo officiating in her stead, Mei goes in for the attack. Without warning, Hahari instructs Mei to "eliminate Rentarou-chan", casting a buff that greatly increases Mei's power until her duty is completed, Rentarou realizing she's like a robot forced to execute a prime directive! With no other option, Rentarou starts falling from the ring intentionally, knowing that if he eliminates himself, Mei will fail and do anything to complete her order; she rushes out of the ring to save him, forfeiting the match and with her preparing to kill herself for her failure until Hahari removes her previous order.
- Winner: Love Mountain
Round 12: Love Mountain vs. Mount Mountain[]
Rentarou gets surrounded by Yamame's large body; she feels good until she remembers she's in a sumo match and begins to lift him off the ground, Yamame priding that she even had to lift an agitated bear at one point to calm it! (and making Iku feel jealous at the lengths of her training) Yamame begins throwing Rentarou to the ground...only to see a leaf in the final second; believing "leaves are living things too", she flips to prevent Rentarou from hitting it, falling to the ground instead.
- Winner: Love Mountain
Round 13: Love Mountain vs. Sporty Sunflower[]
Iku pushes her tough body against Rentarou to prove her strength; Rentarou tries to move her at the hips but Iku readjusts, her athletic skill making her a more formidable challenge with no openings. However realizing there may be one, Rentarou reveals that slapping is also a maneuver in sumo; seeing the hand approaching her, Iku turns around and gets slapped in the butt instead, opening for an instant grab and throw out of the ring and making her wish she should join a sumo stable to improve herself.
- Winner: Love Mountain
Round 14: Love Mountain vs. Tsundere Spire[]
With the final match beginning, it appears to start as normal until Karane turns around all of her love thoughts into anger, flying out of the ring with Rentarou like she's Mercenary Tao and grabbing him, with the first to touch the ground outside the ring the loser! Rentarou sees a point on the ground the futon isn't touching and prepares to hit the ground to protect Karane; but she instead performs a "Tsundere Back-Breaker Drop" at that point instead crushing Rentarou...but also being the first to hit the ground outside the ring, Karane losing due to sumo rules over wrestling rules.
- Winner: Love Mountain
With the matches over, the girls are impressed he won them all, despite the 0.5% chance he would and Yamame adding it's like "a zebra defeating a lion with it's life on the line." With Rentarou having the request of what he wants with the girls, he just wants to hug and kiss all of them, leading to a wild make-out session and the winner actually being "Sea otter" (despite it not being sea otter meat). After all the girls get their kiss in, he states they aren't finished, leading to all of them kissing each other for the rest of the night...until the next morning, when Rentarou feels sorry for all that happen even as the girls sparkle in their victory.
