Mana arrives with them and hits Sōma, which he complains why she hit him rather than Hiroto for teasing Yūta. She tells him that as the older brother he should be responsible for his brother. Yūta suggests sending a letter to Kitarō, which he and his brother do not believe him, asking if he knows where the Yōkai Post is. Mana finds it from someone on the internet, when they find the Post in an alley, Yūta tells that that Kitarō will come with the sound "clop-clop", the brothers joke about it, but Mana quickly stops them by hitting Sōma again, using him to write the letter. They watch as Mana drops the letter in it, which he tells her that she is going to be cursed. After she accidentally slips from a bottle, Sōma and his brother are gone. The next day, Mana scolds him, asking that Hiroto has been bullying Yūta again, which he claims that it is not his business, but Mana retorts that it is as he is the older brother.
