Episodes
Staffel 1
130-sai no Hoken Taiiku
The episode introduces Hayao Imagawa, a 30-year-old virgin salaryman who is on the verge of having sex with a Dutch wife doll named Momoko-chan. His attempt is abruptly interrupted by the sudden, nude manifestation of Daigorō, a boisterous god of sex who materializes in his apartment to oversee his sexual education. Daigorō's unorthodox teaching methods are immediately on display when, after Hayao rejects his initial advice, the god offers his own buttocks as a potential outlet, an act that serves as the episode's central comedic turning point. The narrative is structured into short, discrete lessons, blending crude humor with genuine, if basic, sexual instruction. These early lessons include a hygiene tip about the importance of cleaning the foreskin and a practical, albeit workplace-inappropriate, demonstration on breast caressing techniques using Macaron, Daigorō's cross-dressing younger brother, as a practice dummy. The episode's dialogue is heavily censored, with a menacing "voice of restraint" using suggestive substitutes like "monkey banana" to cover explicit terms. Following these lessons, Hayao is compelled by Daigorō to go on a date with a real woman, Natsu Andō, whom he briefly encounters. Unbeknownst to Hayao, Natsu is a 30-year-old librarian who shares his predicament of inexperience and is herself being guided by her own pair of female love gods, Pi-chan and Ku-chan. The episode establishes its core conflict: Hayao's motivation is to escape the relentless pressure of Daigorō, while Natsu is motivated by her own timid nature and fear of intimacy. The immediate consequence is the forced setup of a potential romantic relationship between the two inexperienced adults, setting the stage for the series' comedic and educational exploration of sex and relationships.
2Hajimete no Dīpu Kisu
The episode introduces Macaron, the younger brother of the sex god Daigorou, who joins in his brother's mission to instruct the protagonist, Hayao Imagawa. Daigorou coerces Hayao into participating in a social gathering to meet new people, using a captive inflatable doll, Momoko-chan, as leverage to ensure his compliance. During this event, Hayao formally meets Natsu Andō, a librarian and the female protagonist, and quickly becomes convinced he has found his soulmate. Upon reporting this development to Daigorou, the sex god dismisses Hayao's proclamation as naive and warns that a harsh rejection is necessary for his growth. Hayao proceeds to confess his feelings to Natsu, but his phrasing is culturally interpreted as a direct proposition for sex. This triggers a defensive reaction from Natsu, who manifests an "A.T. Field" (a parodic reference to Neon Genesis Evangelion) to physically and verbally repel Hayao's advance. The rejection is swift and forceful, leaving Hayao defeated and providing a clear consequence for his clumsy approach. Following this failure, Daigorou instructs a dejected Hayao not to wallow in self-pity but to instead refocus his efforts on obtaining Natsu's email address as the next step in his training. The episode establishes Natsu's own internal conflict, revealing that she is a 30-year-old virgin who is similarly being guided by her own pair of sex gods, Pī-chan and Kū-chan, and that her rejection stemmed from fear. This introduction of the parallel female leads and the immediate setback for Hayao sets the stage for the subsequent lessons in romantic pursuit.
3Hajimete no Danshi Toire
Following his rejection by Natsu, Hayao is consoled by the sex gods Daigorou and Macaron in his apartment. They analyze his failed approach and stress the necessity of obtaining Natsu's email address to move forward. Daigorou provides tactical advice on how to properly ask for it, aiming to correct Hayao's previous missteps. The gods' instruction emphasizes the importance of a clear and direct request to demonstrate his interest.
The narrative resumes at Hayao's workplace, where he encounters Natsu in an unexpected location: the men's washroom. Despite her tendency to activate her "AK Field" around men, Natsu does not do so when Hayao speaks to her. Overhearing his nervous practice, she agrees to provide him with her email address. This success marks a significant turning point, leading to improved text-based communication between the two characters.
Buoyed by this progress, Daigorou and Macaron begin discussing more advanced romantic and sexual topics with Hayao. However, the conversation highlights the gap between their subject matter and the nascent stage of Hayao and Natsu's relationship. The following day, Hayao overhears Natsu mentioning to a coworker that she has not seen a particular movie. Seizing the opportunity, the gods appear on a computer screen and pressure him to invite her on a date.
Hayao initially hesitates, but through psychological manipulation from Daigorou and Macaron, he agrees to extend the invitation. The episode culminates in Hayao successfully asking Natsu out, securing their first official date. This development advances the central plot, transitioning the couple from exchanging contact information to planning a social outing together. The episode concludes with this new prospect established for the characters.

4First Miss Bulgaria
The episode begins immediately after Hayao's successful invitation, showing the couple on their first date. The outing proceeds according to Daigorou's guidance until Natsu's anxiety causes her to end it prematurely, sending both back to their respective homes. Upon returning, Hayao faces harsh criticism from Daigorou for the failed date, leaving him demoralized. The narrative then shifts to Natsu's private life, introducing two new female deities, Pī-chan and Kū-chan, who are revealed to be guiding her toward the same goal of losing her virginity. These goddesses confront Natsu about abandoning their planned approach during the date due to nervousness. Back at Hayao's apartment, Daigorou brings in a coworker described as a successful womanizer to provide additional instruction, though the specifics of this training are heavily censored. Days later, Hayao and Natsu attempt another date, during which they struggle to maintain eye contact but otherwise experience no major incidents. The date concludes successfully with Hayao escorting Natsu to a train station, where he makes his third confession. Natsu appears on the verge of acceptance but ultimately rejects him again, notably without activating her protective "AKField" this time. The rejection leaves Hayao's romantic progress seemingly reset, though Natsu's lack of defensive reaction suggests evolving internal conflict regarding her feelings.
5First Private Video
Episode 5 focuses on Hayao Imagawa's continued pursuit of Natsu Andou following his rejection. Imagawa struggles with the decision to give up or persist in his romantic interest, ultimately resolving to continue his efforts despite the setback. The narrative explores the tension between the idea of accepting rejection and the protagonist's determination to eventually succeed. A key piece of advice presented in the episode is the concept of waiting a specific length of time before approaching someone again after a rejection, providing a structured approach to his persistence. Meanwhile, Natsu's behavior continues to create a central conflict, as she exhibits signs of reciprocating feelings for Imagawa but actively sabotages her own chances due to an apparent inability to interpret or act on her emotions. The divine characters exhibit differing levels of involvement, with Daigorō actively assisting Imagawa, while Pi-chan and Ku-chan appear largely ineffective in guiding Natsu, prompting questions about their competence. The episode establishes that Daigorō has a prior history with Pi-chan and Ku-chan from their elementary school days, adding a layer of backstory to their interactions. The primary conflict driving the episode is the dissonance between Natsu's visible internal feelings and her external rejection of Imagawa. A direct consequence of the episode's events is Imagawa's conscious decision to delay his next approach for a period of three months.
6The First Top Tree
A three-month time skip occurs at the start of the episode, depicting Hayao's rigorous self-improvement regimen, which includes jogging, strength training, and personal grooming, all meticulously logged by the gods Daigorou and Macaron. Following this period of preparation, Hayao arranges to meet Natsu on the rooftop of the library where she works, determined to ask her out once more. Natsu's immediate reaction is to activate her defensive 'A.K. Field,' a habitual response to emotional intimidation, and she initially rejects him. In a significant turning point, Hayao does not retreat but instead perseveres through her defenses and embraces her. He asks her directly to either formally reject him or explain her feelings if she dislikes him, prompting a confession from Natsu that she does not hate him but simply cannot act normally around him. This moment of honesty leads to a breakthrough, and the two agree to officially begin a romantic relationship. The episode marks a major progression in the central narrative, transitioning from a series of rejections to a mutual acceptance. Hayao's motivation shifts from a general goal to a specific determination to connect with Natsu on her terms. Natsu's conflict between her fear and her underlying feelings is resolved through Hayao's persistent sincerity. The immediate consequence is the formal start of their relationship, altering the dynamic between the two protagonists and setting a new direction for the series.
730-sai no Hoken Taiiku
Following the formation of their relationship, the episode depicts Hayao and Natsu approximately two weeks into dating, navigating the initial stages of their romance through awkward text exchanges and a house date. The primary conflict arises from external pressure applied by the deities on both sides, who are eager for the couple to consummate the relationship so they can return to heaven. This pressure is comically obstructed by the appearance of the superintendent of Hayao's apartment building, the 'Virgin King,' who intervenes to protect Hayao's virginity, forcing the couple to flee. In response to the situation, Natsu takes the initiative to invite Hayao to her home, marking a significant turning point where she actively creates an opportunity for them to be alone. At Natsu's house, the couple finds themselves alone in her room, yet the anticipated physical progression is halted when Hayao discovers a vibrator under her bed. The discovery leads Hayao to faint, overwhelmed by fantasies about Natsu's private life, effectively stalling any immediate intimate development. The episode highlights the contrasting approaches of the deities, with the male gods, particularly Daigorō, taking a hands-on role in encouraging Hayao, while the female gods, Pi-chan and Ku-chan, remain largely passive observers in guiding Natsu. A core character motivation for Natsu is revealed to be deep-seated embarrassment regarding sexual matters, a trait rooted in passed-down myths, such as her grandmother's warning about nipple hair and breast cancer, which informs her hesitation. Consequently, the episode portrays the early challenges of a new relationship, illustrating that partnership introduces a new set of awkward situations and external obstacles rather than resolving all tensions. The immediate consequence is a reinforcement of the couple's mutual inexperience and the realization that their journey toward physical intimacy will involve navigating personal anxieties and unexpected discoveries.
8The First Dōjinshi
The episode begins in the immediate aftermath of a date between Hayao Imagawa and Natsu Andou, where Hayao's attempt to ask for a kiss fails, leaving both characters in a state of mutual but unexpressed desire. In response to this stagnation, the resident sex gods intervene with targeted instructional sessions; Macaron awkwardly attempts to teach Hayao the mechanics of initiating a kiss by dressing in drag, while Pii-chan delivers a far more direct and aggressive lesson to Natsu through a deep kiss. A subplot unfolds as the SM-looking librarian and her portly colleague from Hayao's workplace attend a convention to sell their self-published astronomy novels, where their interaction leads to a shared revelation based on their mutual geekery. This encounter serves as a parallel narrative, demonstrating how two individuals with shared interests can connect, albeit through their specific etiquette towards women. Back at Natsu's residence, the practical lessons yield a result when Natsu, empowered by her instruction, nearly tackles Hayao and initiates a passionate make-out session, marking their first kiss. Concurrently, Daigorou and the Virgin King landlord are shown enjoying a night out, their camaraderie providing a contrast to the main couple's romantic progression. The successful kiss acts as a major turning point, shifting the characters' relationship from hesitant courtship to physical intimacy. A consequence of this advancement is the clear establishment of a new dynamic, prompting the gods to refocus their efforts on guiding the couple toward the next stages of their relationship. The episode also subtly advances the potential romance among the divine beings, with Pii-chan's growing interest in Daigorou becoming more apparent through her inquiries.
9Hajimete no Rabu Hoteru
Following their first kiss, the newly formed couple, Hayao and Natsu, embark on a date to the zoo. The two gods, Macaron and Pi-chan, accompany them under the pretense of overseeing the relationship's progress, though their presence serves more as comic relief than as practical instruction. During the zoo visit, the couple encounters the SM-obsessed librarian and her new partner, Hayao's overweight colleague from work, who are also on a date and dressed in their distinctive fetish attire. The encounter highlights the contrast between the main couple's tentative romantic steps and the more established, albeit unconventional, dynamic of the secondary pair. The zoo date itself fails to progress the relationship in a significant manner, as Hayao and Natsu's interactions remain awkward and lack the momentum generated in the previous episode. After the uneventful outing, the humans return to their respective homes, leaving the gods to their own devices. The divine beings subsequently go to a karaoke bar, where Pi-chan, while inebriated, displays clear romantic interest in the male god Daigorou. Her drunken behavior, which includes putting her arm around him and inquiring about the size of his genitalia, confirms a growing subplot regarding her feelings. Macaron further fuels this by comically comparing Daigorou's anatomy to the length of an elephant's trunk. The episode therefore functions primarily as a transitional piece, focusing more on the gods' developing romantic tension and the humorous antics of the secondary characters than on advancing the central human relationship.
10First Affair
The episode centers on a significant conflict between Hayao Imagawa and Natsu Andou, stemming from Imagawa's attachment to his Dutch wife, Momoka. The turmoil is facilitated by the incapacitation of the male gods, Daigorou and Macaron, who have fallen ill with high fevers and are thus unable to intervene in their charge's actions. Pii-chan briefly visits to care for the sick gods but quickly contracts the same illness, leaving Kuu, who cannot speak the human language, as the only conscious deity. With the gods absent during a date, Imagawa and Natsu become embroiled in a heated argument over Momoka. Natsu effectively articulates her feelings of insecurity, explaining that she feels threatened by Imagawa's continued attachment to an inanimate object after they have begun a real relationship. Imagawa, conversely, fails to comprehend Natsu's perspective and refuses to part with Momoka, leading him to break up with Natsu. Following the breakup and while wandering alone, Imagawa encounters the Virgin King, who offers him the position of successor, a proposal Imagawa accepts. Meanwhile, Natsu spends a sleepless night comparing herself to Momoka and dwelling on her perceived inadequacies compared to the doll. The episode concludes on this cliffhanger, with the couple separated and Imagawa having made a pact with the Virgin King, leaving the resolution for the subsequent episode.
11Hajimete no Onanī
The episode opens with a flashback to an event fifty years prior, depicting how the legendary Virgin King defeated a Sex Goddess. Following the opening credits, the narrative focuses on the separate lives of the two protagonists after their recent fight. Hayao Imagawa remains in intense training under his superintendent, who becomes increasingly impressed with his dedication, even anointing him as the new Virgin King. Conversely, Natsu Andō falls into a deep depression following Imagawa's disappearance, her despair leading to an unhealthy lifestyle that causes her to gain a significant amount of weight. The gods Kū-chan and Macaron take the initiative to locate Imagawa, finding him with relative ease. Upon discovering him, Kū-chan awakens to her full power and intervenes to save Macaron from the delusional Virgin King, leaving Imagawa alone to reflect on his actions. This confrontation serves as the turning point for Imagawa, who regains his senses and becomes determined to apologize to Natsu. Their reunion takes place at an airport, where Imagawa, appearing as a desert wanderer, finally declares his love for her. Natsu, though embarrassed and slightly tsundere in her response, tells him not to leave her again, effectively resolving their conflict. The episode concludes with the central conflict of their separation resolved and their relationship restored, setting the stage for the series' final chapter.
1230-sai no Hoken Taiiku
The final episode follows Hayao and Natsu as they attempt to take the next step in their relationship during an overnight trip to a ryokan. Their shared goal is to consummate their relationship, but nerves and performance anxiety prevent them from succeeding, as Hayao is unable to perform. Upon returning home, they are met by the gods, who are initially overjoyed, only to be disappointed upon learning of the couple's failure. The gods reveal they cannot return to heaven until their charges have sex, placing additional pressure on the pair. While Hayao and Natsu discuss their situation in a park, contemplating the possibility of the gods leaving, Daigorou and Ku-chan receive separate notifications of their termination. Rather than revealing this news, they lie to the couple and their siblings, claiming the termination notice is actually a promotion. The heavenly higher-ups have determined that Hayao and Natsu's relationship has progressed to a point where marriage is inevitable, making the gods' continued presence unnecessary. As Hayao and Natsu prepare a welcome party in the kitchen, unaware of the truth, the four gods quietly disappear, returning to heaven without a formal farewell. A post-credits sequence shows a wedding photograph of Hayao and Natsu, followed by a scene set several years later depicting the couple with their young son, whom they have named Daigorou. The episode concludes with Hayao offering advice to his son about the gods, warning him that they are individuals he would never want to meet.
