----------------------------------------
Interesting. After 1:35pm, every time, time is halted for an hour and in an instant, he goes back to his original spot wherever he goes.
After a week, thinking back on Takamachi sensei's frequent statement that "Only time is equal." he complains at him of his life in how he's inexperienced with girls (never having had a girlfriend), and goes to the co-ed school 15 minutes away, Kibino Academy to "get closer to a girl" as he believes this is God's gift of a chance to make up for the loss he's had of never dating over other guys.

And upon finding a girl drawing the portrait of a cat outside of the academy, he approaches her with the idea of literally getting closer to her to improve his uncomfortable inexperience. When he nonchalantly calls out to her, talking to himself, she frantically gets up and asks "Who is it?" ... the heroine.

With good intuition she carefully asks him to distance himself as she's afraid he might try something bad, but after he was intimidated by her attitude, he walks away defeated admitting to being uncomfortable with woman which intrigues her and leads her to following him.

Now walking together to explore, she reveals to him that time has stopped for her for a month now in comparison to him since a week.
As they continuing discussing their hypothesis', they confirm that they can individually move out of the freezing moment with strength and start moving in the time stop.

After debating on why the sun is still visible and if time is being slowed or not, she confirms her theory by touching his face with her hand that is cold, meaning that the time stop is changing in real time of that space time.
When she notices a truck driver asleep with the possibility of crashing into kids at the crosswalk, while she's panicking, he gets the idea of looking for his phone and in the instant of getting out of the time stop, he calls the driver which may have helped in saving the kids.
While she's depressed of her uselessness, he tells her he admired her passion and want to save them but expressed it as beautiful which lead them to get flustered.

Finally, before leaving back to her school after they're joined together in the incident, she looks forward to patrolling together again, and reveals her name --Shinomiya Tokine. But after hearing it, he feels an old jealous hate of the past of always seeing her name at the number one spot in the cram school he was attending.

... Interesting plot twist. I wonder how the whole of the story and their romance will develop.

I absolutely did not expect them to explain about how time works. I genuinely thought this would be another simple shoujo manga where a shy girl falls in love with a socially awkward boy. This kinda spiced things a bit up tbh. And the art style is really good too.
