From J-SiS:
All her life, Chihaya's dream was to see her model sister become Japan's best... That is, until a quiet, unassuming transfer student named Arata tells her otherwise. A dream, he explains to her, is something she needs to work at herself.
Arata plays a competitive version of a traditional Japanese card game--known as Hyakunin Isshu--in a way Chihaya has never seen before. After taking Arata's place in a game, Chihaya discovers she has a passion for it. Now Chihaya wants to become number one in the world, the Queen of Karuta.

Chihayafuru: Middle School Arc
Translated Official description: During elementary school, it was competitive karuta that Arata, Chihaya, and Taichi were tied together with a strong bond––the new trio. Arata went to a different middle school returning to Fukui, while Taichi attended a prestigious school that's hard to get into. Even when they're all scattered apart, Chihaya continues playing karuta alone. However, Taichi said he "stopped playing karuta"––––. Delicately swaying, a fully spirited middle schooler Chihaya and the others presents a new spinoff comic! MangaUpdates Description: "If we continue karuta, we'll definitely meet again." With that promise to the distant Arata in their hearts, Chihaya and Taichi enter middle school. Chihaya tries to find friends to play karuta with her, but her effort is fruitless. Taichi realizes his limits at Kaimeisei Middle School, where only prodigies gather, and loses his fervour for karuta. The distance between Chihaya and Taichi slowly grows... Important Note: The manga-ka (Artist) of this spinoff series, 遠田 おと is credited as TOODA Oto on MangaUpdates, but credited as Onda Oto on CDJapan. The artists's Twitter: @10da010
