Plot

[edit]

The series follows Uryū Kamihate, a high school student who is aiming to pass the entrance exams to the Kyoto University's medical school. After living in an orphanage for much of his life following the death of his mother, he comes to live at Amagami Shrine, where the head priest asks him to marry one of his three granddaughters. Uryū and the Amagami sisters also have to contend with various issues, such as the shrine being in danger of closing down due to financial issues. Through flashforwards, it is implied that Uryū will eventually marry one of the sisters, even though he doesn't want to at all, and actively tries to avoid it at all costs.

Characters

[edit]
Uryū Kamihate (上終 瓜生, Kamihate Uryū)
Voiced by: Sōnosuke Hattori (vomic),[2] Ryōta Suzuki (anime)[3] (Japanese); Branden Loera[4] (English)
A high school student aiming to enter Kyoto University's medical school. He was inspired to become a doctor after his mother's death. Despite being engrossed in studying most of the time, he managed to bond with the Amagami siblings in spite of their rough start and is destined to marry one of the siblings in order to continue the legacy of Amagami Shrine. Because he believes that God did not answer his prayers for his mother to get better, he initially does not believe in spirituality or religion, and hates the idea of relationships and having a significant other. Initially, he has no romantic feelings for any of the girls at all, and refuses to marry any of them, wanting to get away from them and the shrine as soon as possible. However, he eventually warms up to the girls and starts treating them better. He's very capable of doing household chores and cooking which the Amagami siblings adore very much. A frequent running gag of Uryu revolves around him getting caught in awkward situation where the Amagami siblings, Yuna in particular, keep on chiding him for being perverse.

1"The Miracle Begins"
Transliteration: "Kiseki no Hajimari" (Japanese: 奇跡のはじまり)		Ori YasukawaYujiro AbeOctober 2, 2024 (2024-10-02)
17 year old orphan Uryu dreams of becoming a doctor and absolutely does not believe in God, so he is exasperated to be moving into Amagami Shrine with the elderly priest Chidori. However he finds only three girls, Chidori’s granddaughters and Shrine Maidens; 20 year old Yae (whom secretly has unrequited feelings for him) and 14 year old Asahi welcome him while 17 year old Yuna declares Uryu a blasphemous pervert. Her opinion of him worsens when he manages to end up in lewd situations with all three of them. Yuna is devastated when a bird steals the hair tie she inherited from her deceased mother. She and Uryu argue again when she decides to pray for luck instead of just looking for it. He later disappears, worrying Yae that he left, until they find a photograph showing he used to believe in God until his mother died. Uryu is shown searching bird nests, though in the end he does say a prayer for luck. Seeing him, Yuna decides to give him a chance. On their way back they witness a meteor shower known locally as the Magical Star Shower that answers prayers. To Uryu’s disbelief the hair tie blows down from a nest and lands on Yuna’s head. Chidori finally returns to the shrine and immediately requests that Uryu marry one of his granddaughters, much to his shock as he heavily detests the idea of having a significant other.
2"String Cranes at Midday"
Transliteration: "Hakuchū to Tsuru" (Japanese: 白昼と鶴)		Chika ManganjiHiroshi WatanabeOctober 9, 2024 (2024-10-09)
Chidori explains that Uryu will one day take over as priest, and when Uryu protests that he doesn't want to marry any of them, he bribes him with easier entry into Kyoto University. Uryu of course plans to break his promise as soon as he gets into Kyoto, but in the meantime the sisters plan to make him miserable so he leaves. First they make him responsible for cooking, laundry and cleaning Yae’s messy bedroom. When he does all this perfectly they consider letting him stay, but Uryu announces he is leaving since so many chores will get in the way of studying. Yuna soon feels guilty so they follow Uryu all the way to the foster home where he was raised by Dr. Mahiru alongside his childhood friend Shirahi and other children whose parents are too ill to look after them. Seeing Uryu interact with the children gives the girls an insight into his past and desire to become a doctor. At Mahiru’s persuasion Uryu agrees to return to the shrine while the girls agree to do some chores themselves. Unfortunately they are so bad at chores Uryu is doomed to do it all himself anyway. Chidori is glad to see Uryu taking over as man of the house and decides it is time for each granddaughter to have an arranged marriage meeting with Uryu.
3"A Tryst with the Gods"
Transliteration: "[Kamisama to no О̄se] Error: {{Transliteration}}: transliteration text not Latin script (help)" (Japanese: 神様との逢瀬)		Masahiro WatanabeHiroshi WatanabeOctober 16, 2024 (2024-10-16)
Uryu meets with Asahi first only to be forced on a 5 hour jog and then find her missing running shoes. Searching the storeroom Asahi teases Uryu with what might happen were they to become trapped, just as the door slams closed. Uryu realises Asahi suffers from claustrophobia, so he lets her cling to him while he breaks a window. She apologises but becomes flustered when he calls her cute. Next he meets Yuna who abruptly demands he make her pregnant. Yae and Asahi explain Yuna sees it as her duty to marry Uryu so her sisters don’t have to. Uryu moves their meeting to a cat café to cheer her up and she eventually agrees to relax so her sisters don’t worry about her. Yae goes missing before their meeting but Uryu finds her at the Inari Shrine where she claims her reasons are secret. As an apology she buys him a good luck charm then teases him by asking which sister he prefers. Shocked, Uryu refuses to reciprocate her feelings and starts to back away, but falls down the shrine stairs and experiences a vision of himself as a doctor marrying all three sisters, leaving him shaken and in denial. He suddenly awakens in his room and suspects he dreamed everything, until he finds the broken charm Yae bought him on his desk.

Yae is unaware of Uryu falling down stairs. Miemon, head of Kitashirakawa clan that owns the shrine, decides to sell it as worshipper attendance has fallen since the death of the girl’s mother, whom he insults. Uryu challenges Miemon; if they attract 5000 visitors during the festival, he will keep supporting them. Miemon agrees, but warns if they don’t get 5000 then he will also sell their house. Uryu decides to advertise on social media. Asahi attempts to advertise using the girls beauty, causing an argument with Yuna. Eventually they reconcile, and a picture Uryu takes of the girls smiling goes viral. Hoping to lure people with merchandise Uryu asks Yae to design a limited edition charm, but Yae fails to find inspiration and procrastinates all the way to the deadline. Yae eventually produces a design of cherry blossoms and the shrine’s Koi Carp, though Uryu still scolds her for procrastinating, which flusters her. Uryu begs shop owners to set up stalls at the shrine to attract more visitors; otherwise it will be closed forever. Fortunately, the owners agree as they all have fond memories of the shrine but had no idea it was in so much trouble. The girls realise without Uryu helping them connect with the community none of this would have been possible.

On the day of the festival almost no one visits and Asahi discovers someone made a fake social media account for the shrine and announced the festival was cancelled. Uryu realises Miemon is sabotaging them. With only 7 hours left Uryu makes a radical proposal that surprisingly meets with Chidori’s approval. Uryu rushes to hand out fliers and is surprised to receive help from Mahiru, Shirahi and the children. Meanwhile, the sisters ride through town with the shrine on a parade float, attracting huge numbers of visitors. A sudden rain storm stops people from coming. The sisters pray for success while Uryu realises the storm has covered the shrine’s koi pond in beautiful cherry blossom petals. Soon even more visitors arrive to watch the sisters dancing on the island at the pond’s centre. With only 5 minutes remaining they have only attracted 4999 visitors, until Miemon abruptly admits they won, since they forgot he has been at the shrine all day, making him the 5000th visitor. As such, he agrees the shrine can stay open. As he leaves Miemon remains hopeful that one day he can manipulate their gratitude towards him for his own purposes. Yae is so happy she impulsively kisses Uryu on the cheek, shocking her sisters and leaving Uryu stunned and dumbfounded.

Transliteration: "Asa kara Yorunikate" (Japanese: 朝から夜にかけて)		Naoki HishikawaHiroshi WatanabeNovember 5, 2024 (2024-11-05)
Asahi decides to find out if Yae really likes him but despite investigating Yae continues to insist her feelings are secret. Asahi becomes annoyed that Uryu treats her like a child, so she bites his ear before running away. The kiss plus the bite leaves Uryu baffled, and he reminds himself to never fall for any of the girls. Yuno and Yae start acting secretive, and Uryu discovers they are making gifts for Asahi’s birthday; a good luck charm and a stuffed animal. Unfortunately, while competing over whose is better, both gifts are ruined. The next morning the girls discover Uryu stayed up all night repairing the gifts. Uryu has an erotic dream of Yuna. Yuna lectures Yae and Asahi for getting too close to Uryu. They in turn scold her for acting coldly towards him. Mahiru scolds Uryu for assuming the sisters are helpless and advises him to treat them like equals, to which he relectunatly agrees. Uryu is baffled when Yuna suddenly starts trying to show him appreciation and attempts to reject her on the spot, only to realise her rubbing his shoulders is identical to the erotic dream he had. He suspects he actually dreamed the future, which is confirmed when Yuna almost accidentally kisses him, which thanks to his dream he is quickly able to prevent. It is made clear to Yuna that Uryu does not reciprocate her feelings in any way, which leaves her disappointed. However she privately decides that she must do more to expel impurities and attempt to move on from her hopeless crush.

Uryu has a dream of another shrine. Next morning Yuna announces they must visit Tsukigami Shrine to ask Shrine Maiden Yomiko advice. Determined to avoid the future Uryu refuses to go. Unfortunately, Chidori tricks him into going anyway. Tsukigami is famous for the Moonlit Rainbow, which causes dreams to come true. Yomiko believes they are unsuited to continue running their shrine. Instead she asks them to consider whether they wish to run the shrine or follow their other dreams. She also warns Uryu if the girls wish to run the shrine, it will be up to him to make it possible by marrying one of them. Uryu decides he can’t marry as he is determined to become a doctor. Yae runs away so Asahi chases after her. Yuna becomes catatonic so Uryu is forced to look after her, even though it follows his dream. Yuna admits she runs the shrine from obligation, dismissing everything else as unimportant. Uryu catches Yomiko spying and becomes suspicious. Soon after, Uryu catches a still dazed Yuna trying to begin waterfall meditation and accidentally gropes her whilst pulling her out, snapping her back to her normal angry self. She yells at him that if he really wanted to be a doctor he’d study instead of helping them all the time. He shouts back that he does that because he wants to, making her laugh and feel better.

Asahi returns without Yae. Uryu follows his dream prediction and finds Yae by the river. She hints she would be willing to give up her future career to marry him. As predicted, Uryu falls into the river and wakes up in the bath at Tsukigami. It is revealed Yae struggles to make decisions because her mother used to always choose for her, so she tends to run away at stressful moments. She is touched when Uryu claims he’ll always help when she struggles, but warns him not to go making assumptions about the future. The next morning Asahi reveals to Uryu she has accepted an offer to attend a famous sports college and will be moving to Tokyo, though she is struggling to tell her sisters. Uryu insists she has to tell them but she runs away, so Uryu tells them instead. They reveal they knew Asahi was planning on leaving but chose to let her make the decision by herself. Uryu wonders if it is truly what Asahi wants so they chase after her. After hearing their support for her Asahi decides she wants to stay at the shrine with her sisters. She thanks Uryu for interfering as it helped her realise what she really wanted.
