Summary

An abandoned cat story tests Hikage’s compassion against the limits of her apartment and budget. She wants to help, but the sisters cannot ignore rules, money, or the practical difficulty of keeping a pet.

What happens in this episode

Episode 9 shifts the hunger comedy toward responsibility. Daisuke’s account of a stray cat starts as school talk, then Hikage encounters the animal herself and briefly imagines bringing it home. Hinata’s first reaction misunderstands the situation, but the real obstacle is not cruelty; it is the apartment’s no-pet rule and the household’s inability to absorb another need. The episode’s best detail is how many people sympathize while still being unable to solve the problem. That makes the cat plot a neat mirror of the series as a whole: kindness exists, but practical limits keep winning.

Watch or skip?

Watch. The episodes are very short, and each one adds another angle on Hinata’s spending habits, Hikage’s hunger, school embarrassment, or the sisters’ cramped but affectionate home life.

Where to watch

Use legal services and official search pages; older short ONAs can move between catalogs or become unavailable by region.
