However, on the day of exam Nagisa stopped to help a girl seemingly about to faint in the snow, causing her to miss the exams and instantly fail. Dejected, Nagisa applied to a nearby school while changing her look completely, dying her hair and swapping her glasses for contacts, only to find that the girl who now sits next to her in class, Mashiro Komiyama, is the same one she stopped to help that caused her to fail her entrance exam.
