Episode 1

The episode opens with a beautiful woman (Kaguya) sitting on a window sill looking at the moon. However, not looking at it from the earth, but from some kind of duo-asteroid arrangement. She is talking about how the moon is getting further away from the earth, and relates this to the suffering (relating to love) that is going on on the earth.

She is "called" to earth, and we see a young boy rejected by a girl. She throws his flowers away and tells him off but good. She goes to an office building and to a doctor's office. The doctor is her governess and is giving her what is supposed to be vitamin shots. She is also having sex with the girl, and the girl is totally under her thrall.

The doctor later manages to cause the girl's death, and the girl ends up in another reality on the "bridge of unfulfilled dreams." There Kaguya and her helper, Pipi, try to help her.

Back on earth, the doctor is now making it with a male doctor, showing she was not concerned for the girl at all but simply wanted her inheritance.

The rejected boyfriend wants to help, but he doesn't quite figure on the physical alternations necessary. The episode is resolved in a very wild, humorous manner and all is well in the end.

Episode 2

The episode opens with Kaguya bathing. She must return to earth to try and help lessen the pain due to love problems, and ends up doing a "reading" for a young boy who has been rejected by a girl. Seems he only wanted to take her to planetariums and game parlors and the like, and it seems she wanted a little more physical activity than that.

The boy is totally unsure of himself with girls and Kaguya tries to help him in her rather unique manner. Later, though, Kaguya and Pipi find out that the boy's essence has become trapped inside a video game and they have to rescue him.

Which leads to some very interesting scenes involving tentacles.

It seems the boy's mother had left the marriage when he was very young and he has never managed to deal with it. Once his essence returns to his physical body Kaguya gets him to nurse her and thus allows him to finally deal with the loss of his mother.

After the second episode there is a portfolio of drawings from the episodes, sometimes even showing the black-and-white drawings and then the actual images they ended up being.

Review: This is really a good anime. It is quite a bit more sexy than the average one, and thus might be unsuitable for young viewers. There is a LOT of nudity, sexual activity, etc.

The plot concept is somewhat unusual (and a little thin at times) but works fairly well. Pipi ends up being one of the most fascinating side-kicks I have ever seen in any anime or TV show. Kaguya has a rather unusual way of helping people, and she constantly is trying to help resolve the problems with love people have.
