Kamisama no Inai Nichiyoubi - Episode 7

Ai goes to school, never mind that she was kidnapped to do so, makes friends with some very talented children, and plots an escape with an ephemeral witch.

It's the start of a new arc, which means new characters, new details about this world that God seemingly abandoned, and more back story about Ai herself.

In this world where people can't die, they also can't have children, so very soon, schools will become unnecessary, especially since it's been about 15 years since the calamity. Schools get a huge subsidy from the government for each child they have enrolled, but finding children is very hard as they get rarer since they grow up and become adults. This particular school, Gora Academy, is particularly ruthless, kidnapping children opportunistically. And the principal is more like a warden, making sure the children stay enrolled.

Because Ai has never been to school, as she was the only child in her village of dead people, this is all a new grand adventure, and she makes some new friends too. In talking with her classmates, Ai discovers that the children are not ordinary children, but all have special gifts when they made strong wishes during a near death experience. These kind of details flesh out this mysterious world, where people die, but wake up again in their dead bodies, and only stay dead when buried by Gravekeepers. But another wrinkle is the granting of wishes by God, as is the case with these children, and with Ai's father, who wished not to die until he had found happiness. I'm still not sure how that mystical part works. It's like everyone was granted two wishes, and almost everyone's strongest desire is not to die. And we know from the graves of gravekeepers all around Ortus that they can die without waking up without being buried by another gravekeeper. Well, we're discovering this world through Ai's journey, so let's see what we can see.

Now, some of these students at this school really want to get out of there, and helping them is Whisper, a witch without a solid body. She has been following Ai since she left Ortus, so we don't yet know what her agenda is.
