Episode Context

As the first episode of a 96-episode series, this is pure foundation-laying, introducing the boarding house ensemble, establishing Godai's frustrations, and making Kyōko's arrival the inciting event for everything that follows. No prior context needed; this is your entry point. Every relationship dynamic and emotional thread the series will explore over its lengthy run traces back to what's set up here.
