The statement about Masaya's hair being damaged during the fire incident at the shrine sounds wrong. Here is my premise:  When Rise is imparting the story to the other girls, she does not yet know that Masaya _is_ in fact that boy from her past, Chien. She says that he always wore a baseball cap because of a mistake where a barber shaved his head. (OK - she might have said that to simplify her explanation had it happened due to the fire .. BUT).... Chiho, upon hearing that, was alarmed - because Masaya had his head shaved when he was a kid (also by mistake, apparently). She also said that she did not see him for several MONTHS after that Shrine incident (the festival), and she didn't even know if he'd been in the hospital, etc.. THEREFORE - Since Chiho KNEW about the head-being-shaved... it MUST have happened BEFORE he went to the shrine/festival. If it had happened due to the fire... Chiho would NOT have known about it at all. His hair would have grown back a fair amount... and she didn't even know he was badly injured after all.. so - see my point? His hair was shaved BEFORE that fire ever happened.
