## Episode Guide

**Big Pinch! Oshaki Can't Come Out-desu!!** (大ピンチ！出るに出られぬおシャキです！！, *Dai Pinchi! Deru ni de rarenu Oshaki desu!!*) is the fourth Kami-sama Minarai: Himitsu no Cocotama episode. Its initial airdate was October 8, 2015.

## Official Synopsis

Kokoro Yotsuba has discovered a new Cocotama. She immediately tries to get it to open so it can see her room, but it won't break. Inside is a book God, Oshaki. The reason the egg won't hatch is because the book Oshaki was born from has had a page torn out. In order to free Oshaki from her egg, Kokoro looks for the missing page.

## Plot

Kokoro's dad (Koichi) found a Cocotama egg in one of the families books so Kokoro tries to open it but they can't. It turns out the cocotama can't come out of the egg because her soul item, the book she came from, has a page ripped from it recently. Kokoro and friends look everywhere for the lost page to add it back to the book so the Cocotama Oshaki can finally hatch. Oshaki explains she came from a well used book of the family with educational stuff of all kinds in it and it was well cared for until now.

Oshaki guesses it is Kokoro's mother's (Misato) fault the page was ripped. She has a theory that the mother wanted to try and clean a stain on her clothes with the page of the book and threw it away in the trash on the way to the cleaners to hide the evidence. So they check the rubbish bins on the path she went to the cleaners to find it. Luckytama makes Kokoro a disguise so she wont be embarrassed searching in the bins in the park so she dresses up as a superhero standing out even more. Kokoro meets a boy from her school (Seitarou Ichinose) she has a crush on who happens to have a piece of paper fall out of his pocket which he picks up. Oshaki says it might be him who has the lost page so they try to sneak into his shirt while he isn't looking when he puts it down to play sports in the park. Luckytama and Melory get the paper from the boys shirt so Kokoro isn't suspicious but they get blown by a gust of wind into a tree. They turn out ok but the paper was just a shopping list.

They keep looking hard everywhere but they can't find the book page and go home as it is the last place to look. Also, Oshaki has another crazy theory about her father being to blame. When they get home they find Kokoro's mother scolding her younger brother (Makoto). It turns out Makoto ripped the page when trying to hide his failing grade in it last night. Makoto finally repairs the book and Kokoro goes to her room to open Oshaki's egg. Oshaki Cocotama signs a contract to be part of the Cocotama House. She then demands the cocotama clean the Cocotama House. Luckytama accidentally crushes Oshaki with a pile of oranges after she suggests they use orange juice to help remove a stain and Luckytama and Melory decide to leave her there because she is too bossy.
