Wherefore Art Thou, Romeo? (バトルロイヤル・ロミオ Batoru roiyaru Romeo?) is the 74th chapter of the manga and the first chapter of the Romeo and Juliet Arc. While cleaning up the classroom one afternoon, the directors from the Furinkan High drama department approach Akane to star in one of their plays. Akane, assuming it's a macho role immediately turns it down. The directors tells her they wanted her for Juliet and she accepts without hesitation.
