Da Capo III

The Newspaper Club ambition is to make the best graduation edition of the paper. But to truly stand out and beat the unofficial newspaper, conventional boring themes won’t work.

The Newspaper Club begins their investigation of the Everlasting Cherry Blossom, but Kiyotaka must deal with jealous males in the school and an overly attached Charles.

Kiyotaka is interviewing the town when he spots a strange girl on her own near the observation point. Later, Kiyotaka looks into past articles in the library only to find articles on accidents and incidents with unknown causes. Then he finds reports of a mysterious girl spotted on the scenes, but something about it seems off.

The Newspaper club has learned that when Everlasting Cherry Tree bloomed for the second time, mysterious accidents, phenomenon, and people grew in frequency. They also learn that the person who knew the most about the cherry blossom was their former principal, Yoshino Sakura. When Kiyotaka sees the picture of “Yoshino Sakura”, he’s reminded of the mysterious “Sakura” he met the other day.

Kiyotaka has been spending a lot of time with Sara but can’t read between the lines. Even when Sara gets the chance after being locked in a storage closet, something urgent ruins the mood.

Ricca is giving Kiyotaka all the signals but is too dense to notice. Things get more complicated when he mentions to his girls that he has seeing someone.

Kiyotaka was the only one to notice that Aoi wasn’t feeling well. Unable to say no, he agrees to stay with her until she is back to her energetic self. But Aoi wants more than a caretaker, she wants…

After Kiyotaka finishes shopping for dinner, he stops by the Shopping District's lottery. When he spins the wheel around, he wins third prize, tickest to Sakura Park's Heated Pool!

Kiyotaka finds himself bound together with his best friend Kousuke and surrounded by Elizabeth, Tomoe, Shiki, Ricca, and Charles in the student council's office. He still doesn't quite understand how he got there, but it seems they think he knows what Suginami and the Unofficial Newspaper Club are plotting.

When Kiyotaka opens the door to Amakase Detective Agency, he's greeted by the head of the agency, Amakase Minatsu, a girl wearing a red muffler who introduces herself as a robot.

Kiyotaka and Ricca meet Sakura before the everlasting cherry blossom, but the moment Ricca touches her, memories begin to flashback in both of their minds.

The members of the official newspaper club are suddenly called together by Ricca. As they walk along the cherry blossom lined road without knowing why, Sakura appears before them. Kiyotaka and the others greet her with a smile, but Sakura tells them she's decided to leave the island and asks them to play with her today.

After Sakura left everyone, they all receive a new message on their phones from an unknown sender. The next day the official newspaper club decides to try and start working on the articles for their graduation special, but after considering Sakura, they decide to take a different approach.
