## Summary

### Part 1

A brief explanation about the history of Akihabara and the popular toy called Gachapon that is sold there is given by a Devil. Jashin-chan, uses her money to buy a toy from one of the machines, wagering her life if she gets a certain toy. The toy in question that she receives from the machine isn't the one that she'll lose her life over. Delighted by the outcome Jashin heads off while commenting on how she loves wagering her life on such trivial things. She then lies on the street admiring her toys, as a car drives by and nearly hits her. Her collection of toys nearly complete, Jashin realizes that she can't buy anymore as the money she has left is for her dinner. Even so, Jashin decides to use the money anyway, but recalls what Yurine would do to her if she wastes the money. A young boy then uses the machine Jashin wanted to use and gets the missing toy from her collection. So Jashin asks the boy to take a closer look at the toy and he allows it. Jashin then puts the toy in her mouth and spits it out after playing around with it inside her mouth. The boy then launches an uppercut at Jashin sending her flying and after claiming he doesn't want the toy anymore, Jashin gloats about her successful misdeed. After purchasing some meat from the market, a police woman accosts Jashin. Afterward, Jashin contacts Yurine that she was arrested. That evening, Yurine visits Jashin at the police station and reprimands her by giving her an uppercut. Soon, the policewoman named Mei arrives and introduces herself. Thereafter, Mei explains the reason why Jashin was arrested wasn't for taking the toy from the boy earlier that day, but from stealing her heart. This astonishes the two, as Mei elucidates how Jashin captivated her when she first saw her. Getting to the point at hand, Mei requests that she takes Jashin for herself and Yurine agrees, much to Jashin's dismay. Overjoyed, Mei hugs Jashin until she briefly passes out and renames her Orochimaru. Realizing that it'll be harder for her to cook and clean without Jashin, Yurine retracts her acceptance, much to Mei's dismay. In a fit of outrage, Mei tries to kill Jashin by throwing her sword at the lamia, but merely scraps her tail. Seeing Jashin wince in pain, makes Mei comment on how cute she looks and takes selfies with her. This continues until 5:00 PM, which is quitting time for Mei who then leaves but not before promising to see them again. With Mei out of the picture, Yurine asks what Jashin was talking about earlier involving a boy. Jashin tries to dodge the question and internally thinks that she has to get rid of the toy somehow.

### Part 2

A small scene takes place where Jashin enters the wrong doorway because she was engrossed in her phone.

### Part 3

Beth and Minos both howl at the full moon together. Elsewhere, Persephone II recalls her mother's advice that the human world air is highly polluted, which is why she wears a gas mask. However, she then takes off her gas mask and after taking a deep breath, she starts to heavily cough. At Yurine's apartment, Jashin prostates in front of Yurine and requests that she die to whom declines. Jashin then has a snit over her failed plan. Yurine then states that she's going to take a bath and that Jashin should take one when she's done. Later, Jashin laments about her failed plan while watching TV and eating crackers. The TV program that she watches gives her an epiphany of how she can kill, Yurine just like in a TV Drama shows. Jashin then visuals several scenarios of how the "accidental murders" would take place. Once Jashin finishes her scenarios, Yurine return from her shower. Jashin then asks Yurine what her plans are for the following day, she replies nothing. So Jashin suggests they go hiking in the mountains, to which, Yurine subtly declines, leaving her dejected.

### Part 4

Minos and Jashin talk about how the majority of the anime has taken place in Yurine's apartment. For a change of scenery, the two head to Minos' apartment. Minos' apartment still feels similar to Yurine's, so Minos changes the location to a desert setting.

### Part 5

While doing some errands, Medusa is contacted by Jashin who wants to see her. Before she heads to see Jashin, Medusa picks up some treats and withdraws some money for her. Once Medusa arrives at the apartment, she notices Jashin's odd appearance and it's then that her head falls off her neck. This leaves Medusa emotionally distraught as her best friend is now "dead". It's at that moment that Jashin appears out of hiding in the closet and reveals that the Jashin that Medusa saw was just shedded husk of hers. Instead of finding humor in what Jashin did, Medusa berates Jashin for "crossing the line" with her prank. Claiming that she won't return for a while, Jashin tries in earnest to dissuade Medusa from doing that. She goes as far as to say that she'll develop gastritis from Medusa's abandonment. Unconvinced Medusa leaves Jashin leaving her distraught. This, however, was all an act by Medusa as payback for Jashin's prank. The two reconcile with each other and later enjoy the treats that Medusa brought over.
