Synopsis

Kamisama Hajimemashita (Kamisama Kiss)

After her father runs away to escape his gambling debts and she is evicted
from their meagre apartment, Nanami Momozono finds a sudden change in her
fortune after rescuing a stranger from a dog. She is rewarded by being made the
diety of the local shrine, gaining a home, two cheerful servants and one very
snarky fox spirit.

Tonight’s Episode: “The God Catches a Cold”

Its been two days since Nanami returned to her shrine, and she finds she is
still flustered by Tomoe’s kiss. But perhaps it’s not just embarrassing
thoughts that are making her face red. It seems Nanami is running a fever. Of
course, she’s already missed far too many days of school to be able to skip
classes just because of that. But then her faithfully spirit helpers come up
with a great idea, Tomoe can disguise himself as Nanami and go to school in her
place. There’s no way this could possibly go wrong!

preparation for the Alliance’s largest ever battle against the Hideauze, a

with his carrier and is separated from the rest of the fleet during the escape
…

doing now.
