Megami no Cafe Terrace - Episode 1 - Ami Light Box Censorship

Hayato’s new roommates met him with a burlesque strip show and a naked roundhouse kick to the face.

The opening theme music has pop music charm and a catchy, bouncy hook. I saw a visual theme for Goddess Café Terrace in the stock trading range bars. Ami-chan’s light bars already used it!

What a jerk. Of course, this guy gets repaid by naked skin, sadism, and bondage. Goddess Café Terrace went straight to celestial light beams of censorship. I had hoped for more creative ways to block naughty lady bits from view. Why are five naked women too many? Hard disagree.

Who are these strange women living in Hayato’s house? Family, they claim. Here’s a drama point for reference: the five young women all came to work and live with Grandma Kasukabe within the last year. What happened during the first two years that Hayato was gone? Geez. The girls even paid for her funeral. Hayato starts Goddess Café Terrace in a deep hole for sympathy points.

Oho. Riho is the schemer of the goddesses. The plan: Seduce Hayato; Stuff happens; He agrees to let them stay at the house. “Stuff” does a lot of heaving lifting in this “plan.” Hayato has his own plan: Pave paradise and put up a parking lot. The dude has a mind for money. He expected more honey traps, but Hayato got a chocolate cigarette and wine trap instead. Riho’s secret weapon was the prim and proper Shiragiku! She’s a horny drunk with a male-smell fetish! And baka Ami’s sense of justice ruined Riho’s blackmail plans. Oops.

Here come the paradise-paving guys. What will make Hayato change his mind? A Spanish vocabulary lesson and grandma’s rice pilaf. Keikakudoori (計画通り, けいかくどおり, just as planned)! Hayato must fulfill his financial plans for “family” a few years earlier than expected. Can the goddesses help him turn a profit in one year?

Next time, secrets are revealed! Like, who wears those fancy string tie panties? Har. Hayato suggests a better title for the anime would have been “The Familia Café Terrace and its Goddesses of Poverty.” Hard to argue with that.
