// WHY IT HITS

Five minutes at a time, this thing disarms you completely. Honoka is a 14-year-old who gets pushed around at school and doesn't believe in God, angels or devils, and the show's answer is to drop a devil baby into her bedroom and let cuteness do the arguing. Nothing much happens across 75 episodes, and that's the point: no arc to track, no stakes to brace for, just a timid kid slowly finding a spine because something tiny and horned needs her. The character designs are engineered at a molecular level to make you exhale. Reviewers keep reaching for Daa! Daa! Daa! and they're right, this is the same trick, downsized into bite-sized doses. Watch one after a day that went badly and you'll be four episodes deep before you notice you stopped scowling.

SYNOPSIS

Honoka spends her days as a quiet middle schooler, constantly overlooked and pushed around by her classmates. She keeps her head down, skeptical of anything beyond the ordinary world. Her routine shatters one night when a tiny devil materializes in her bedroom, crying and disoriented. The creature is Puti, a mischievous infant demon separated from her family in the celestial realm, and she's decided Honoka is her new parent whether the girl likes it or not. Suddenly thrust into supernatural babysitting, Honoka discovers that caring for a devil baby means dealing with angelic visitors, heavenly bureaucracy, and the chaos that erupts when celestial beings collide with everyday school life. Puti's antics force Honoka out of her shell, dragging her bullies, friends, and even heaven's messengers into ridiculous situations. What starts as an unwanted responsibility becomes something stranger: a found family that challenges everything Honoka thought she understood about faith, belonging, and who she could become. Puti needs Honoka as much as Honoka needs the confidence Puti demands from her.
