なならき~Seven Lucky Gods~

Ebisu is one of the Seven Lucky Gods who, bereft of their divine power, came crashing down to this world. We join him as he mopes about at home, grumbling to himself as usual, when all of a sudden, his old friend and fellow god Benzaiten moves in next door...

Ebisu is pining after Benzaiten, and turns to his friend Daikokuten for help. Over drinks, Ebisu asks his old pal for one of his love blessings—only to find out that he has no blessings to offer. Ebisu decides to try his best to woo Benzaiten without divine blessings, but will his efforts prevail?

Daikokuten moves into Takarabune Heights, and before long tempers flare as he and Ebisu fight over Benzaiten. Seeing the two young gods argue reminds Jurojin and Fukurokuju of their youth. But when Benzaiten reveals that she's got one more seat at her table for a curry dinner, something awakens in the heretofore abstinent pair...

Ebisu and the gang head out for a karaoke session. Unfortunately for them, they've got two unwelcome, uninvited guests in the form of Jurojin and Fukurokuju. Patience with the pair and their old fogey songs soon wears thin, and just as they're about to be forcibly removed, they offer to pay for the evening in a bid to stay! Fukurokuju is convinced it will be a cheap night out, but he's in for a nasty surprise...

The scene: Kamisune-cho's biggest host club, "Bedroom Eyez". Top host Shirosaki can't help but notice that KOLAND, the number two host, isn't his usual self. Poor KOLAND has fallen head over heels for one of his customers—Amaterasu no less! And to top it all off, Shirosaki-sama also has feelings for her. There's only one thing for it: try to win her heart with a champagne call showdown at her birthday party...

At long last, the Seven Lucky Gods are gathered together at Takarabune Heights. With the help of a handy little scou—err, totally original gadget, the gods realize they have enough divine power to make it home. All aboard the ship's bridge, the gang set off for the other world! Will they make it back in one piece?

Unwavering in their dedication to the path of chivalry, these former beasts have attained godhood. Together, they are the Five Auspicious Beasts (FAB)! At their latest executive meeting, talk turns to the Mononoke Clan—long a thorn in the side of the FAB. The time has come to rid the town of these pesky yokai usurpers once and for all—but not before the Beasts realize people have mistaken the FAB for lowly yokai themselves. And so, the five members of the FAB attempt to deduce, with the utmost scientific rigor, exactly how this baffling state of affairs has come to pass...

Kappa isn't having any of Ebisu and Daikokuten's blatant disrespect for him and his yokai pals! As Kappa desperately tries to prove his strength, Karakasa starts babbling about a "magic spell"... When the so-called spell proves to be a dud, the enraged Kappa attempts to pull poor Ebisu's intestines out from where the sun doesn't shine. Unfortunately for Ebisu, Benzaiten sees the pair in a rather compromising position and gets the wrong impression. If that wasn't bad enough, who should appear on the scene but the fearsome brawler Byakko! A frenzied fight ensues...

Tensions have boiled over at long last: the gods and yokai are at war! Nurarihyon has stored up his spirit power to damn near diarrhea danger levels, and Tsurube-otoshi—the fabled burly brawler of ancient yokai legend—are ready and raring to fight. Does our erstwhile hero Ebisu and his measly 2 levels or divine power stand a chance? Will a hare-brained scheme hatched on the spur of the moment be enough to save him?

Nurarihyon bemoans the dire straits he and his yokai pals find themselves in. For time immemorial, yokai have stored up spirit power by distracting humans with their tricks. These days, though, it's those pesky human YouTubers pulling the most outrageous pranks and stealing the limelight from the attention-starved yokai. In an effort to modernize, they've even tried posting videos online, although without much success. Will Ebisu and Daikokuten's advice help the yokai out of their rut?

Benzaiten and the gang are gathered outside Takarabune Heights, bemoaning how hard it's become to earn the people's faith in the modern world. All of a sudden, they get word that Ebisu and Daikokuten have seasoned themself out of existence in a salty purification mishap. They pay a visit to King Yamma in a bid to try and save their pals... Fortunately for them, it seems like the dark king knows exactly who to call—but who on earth is going to come to the rescue of the hapless, hellbound pair?

It's been a long and rocky road, but the Seven Lucky Gods are back together at last—catching up over a nice long soak in the local bath house. Freshly returned from their trip to the underworld, Ebisu and Daikokuten hear from a decidedly green-looking Fukurokuju about the redevelopment plans for Kamisune-cho. As the gods contemplate the loss of their earthly home, things get heartfelt. Will the Seven Lucky Gods finally live up to their name?
