Episode 12 of You and I Are Polar Opposites Season 2 focuses on two of the three couples. Tani and Miyu resolve the strain caused by Miyu's earlier ultimatum about Tani's college choice, as Miyu realizes her push for him to prioritize himself left him hiding his exhaustion, and she tells him she can be someone to lean on. The episode flash-forwards to graduation day, where Azuma decides to keep her feelings for Taira to herself, until Taira asks if they can keep seeing each other.
Tani and Miyu spend most of the episode working through the aftermath of Miyu's threat to split up if Tani did not weigh all his college options. The two are spending more time together, but Miyu notices how hard Tani is straining to make that time, and a conversation with her friends makes her see that telling him to put himself first pushed him to hide any signs of struggle. She tells him she cannot solve his problems but can be a shoulder to lean on, and he admits to feeling exhausted.
The second half jumps to spring and then to graduation day with no progress between Taira and Azuma, who cry together over how much they enjoyed high school. Azuma decides to keep her feelings to herself. Taira stops her from walking off and asks if they can still see each other.
