Ep 6. Let's Start a War

Mayo Chiki season 1 episode 6 titled 'Let's Start a War' introduces the main protagonist, Kinjirō Sakamachi, as he tries to move on from his embarrassing discovery of his butler, Subaru Konoe, being a girl. However, fate seems to have other plans in store for him as the school's Discipline Committee president, Kanade Suzutsuki, invites him to a meeting where she enlists him in a mission to stop a potential war between the school's boys' and girls' dormitories.

The episode starts with Kinjirō remembering the events from the previous episode where he discovers Subaru's true gender. In order to forget the awkward experience, he decides to take a nap during lunch break. However, he is soon awakened by Kanade, who tells him about the impending war between the boys' and girls' dormitories.

As Kinjirō tries to comprehend the gravity of the situation, Kanade explains to him that the war began due to a misunderstanding between the two dormitories' student council members. She also reveals that the school administration is not taking this matter seriously and has decided to let the students handle it themselves. Kanade then suggests that Kinjirō should act as a mediator between the two dormitories and try to resolve the dispute before it escalates even further.

Kinjirō agrees to help Kanade as he feels it is better than dealing with the awkwardness of his recent discovery. Kanade and Kinjirō then head to the boys' dormitory to talk to its student council president, Nakuru Narumi, who is not keen on resolving the issue peacefully.

The episode then shifts to the dodgeball match, where both dormitories gather to watch the intense game. As the match begins, both teams play fiercely, determined to win. However, the game soon takes a dangerous turn as Kureha and Nakuru engage in a one-on-one battle, with neither willing to give in. This causes Kanade to intervene by using her martial arts skills to end the match, much to everyone's surprise.

With the dispute ultimately settled, both dormitories come together to celebrate their newfound friendship, with Kinjirō being praised for his role in resolving the issue. The episode ends with Kinjirō reflecting on the events and realizing that he has grown closer to both Subaru and Kanade.
