Summary:
Nowadays Zange isn’t so much concerned about rooting out impurities as she is about securing her godly status by amassing followers. As the hot new idol, Zange’s thing is to go around and hear confessions for 100 yen. One night, during a late night gesso run, Jin spots Zange cornered by some thugs and rescues her. After they escape, the two talk and Jin is charmed by Zange’s words. However, Zange is more than meets the eye.
Nagi reveals that her mega-tree was divided so that both sides of Kannagi (which is split by a river) could have a guardian deity. In time, the deities of both trees became distinct, and that is how Zange developed. Behind Zange’s kind and charming exterior, however, Zange is manipulative and petty. What’s more, she is using a live human girl (Suzushiro Hakua) as her vessel and that is a serious no-no. With that, Zange decides she will move in to Jin’s place to take care of him, and everyone is totally shocked.
Reaction:
Wow, this episode was jam-packed with information! I learned about a new use for jump ropes, gesso and its uses in fending off thugs, and the founder effect. If this episode didn’t convince you that evolution is real, then nothing will! Nagi was more low-key this episode, but I still enjoyed her freaking out at the construction site and I loved watching while she and Jin ate horrible unhealthy food with tons of sauce.
Zange has definitely usurped a ton of Tsugumi’s screen time, and I was amused to find Zange is in a Birdy-esque situation. Although Tsugumi got her time cut, she was still very funny (with her cooking), and Jin’s half-confession to Zange makes it seem like the childhood friend might have a chance. I also wonder what would happen if Zange were to merge back with Nagi, and what the resulting gattai would look like. As for Hakua, I bet she is a creepy Jin-stalker and that is why she agreed to be Zange’s vessel.

Who says anime doesn’t teach kids anything?
This is actually Birdy 2 in disguise.
NOOOOOOOOO!!! Anoter dog-planet episode is probably coming up next then.
why Jin’s vision of a Nagi “idol” has bee antennae, I don’t know.
He must think she is bee-utiful.
The microphone is bee-themed too.
Man, the sister sure is mean
, but you can’t resist that licking scene. Not to mention the reasonably sized knockers she has (for a loli that is).
Well, they already gave us one Dragonball reference… so heres to a FUSION DANCE!!! >:3
They’re bringin’ Bee back yo, but of course, Super Mario been bringin’ it back dawg! (should bee the third pic)
I too fell in love when Nagi and Jin were eating their food like nibbling hamsters =3 I wish there were more hamster cosplay, and no, don’t anyone (hurr hurr don’t anyone hurr hurr) mention Hamtaro cause I been all over that like banana and crackers! =3 mmmm
Just stop!
A Nagi Zange fusion would be interesting, though you have to wonder if zange would be as well endowed as she is now…
Still Zange loses points for not costume raping Nagi and yuri raping her after that.
Some people are saying this is heading down the generic harem anime path, but with Jin’s open admittance to liking big breasts, it pretty much rules Nagi out of the game, unless of course the worship mana she will obtain later by becoming an idol makes her well endowed.
That one was a stretch.
So would you say that Zange is a total beech?
I pray for the sweet release of death that does not come. x_x
