Airdate: January 6, 2010

On the day of Yuto Amakawa's 16th birthday, he and his childhood friend Rinko meet a mysterious katana-wielding girl on their way to school. The girl starts to lick Yuto's face much to Rinko's shock, forcing her to drag him away. At school during a heated argument on the rooftop, Yuto and Rinko are attacked by their friend Taizo who is possessed by a demon spirit until the mysterious girl from earlier exorcises it and kills it, but ends up puncturing the school's water tank. Later that night, Yuto is met once again by the mysterious girl who introduces herself as the cat spirit Himari, and explains that he is being targeted by various ayakashi who are out to kill him and that she will protect him from them by an ancient vow. However, this triggers Yuto's cat allergies and at the same time Rinko appears unexpectedly and causes a ruckus after seeing them together. The following day, Himari transfers to Yuto and Rinko's school. The night before, Himari reveals that Yuto's family (i.e., the Amakawa Family) is one of the twelve Demon Slayer families that has killed ayakashi for hundreds of years, and that one of her ancestors was spared by Yuto's ancestor that led to a vow for her kind to forever serve them. Refusing to accept this fact, Rinko challenges Himari to a sports battle (which includes running, high jump, kendo, judo and tennis) for Yuto's custody, only for her to lose in all of them despite being the school's best athlete. After being told by Himari that she lacks the strength to protect Yuto, Rinko insults her by calling her a monster. After school, Yuto reconciles with Himari on the rooftoop, who asks if it is okay to have an ayakashi like her around him. Yuto, understanding that she is only concerned about his well-being just like his grandparents were, allows her to perform her duty. The next morning, Rinko comes to apologize to Yuto, only to see Himari in his bed, much to her annoyance and it turns into yet another ruckus. Meanwhile, the ayakashi plan their next move to kill Yuto when a mizuchi or water deity named Shizuku appears, claiming she will kill him herself.

While at the beach, it is revealed that Himari has a fear of water, in which Rinko throws her an inflatable whale toy to float on. While the others are having fun, Himari, having drifted far from the shore, gets a startling visit from Yuto when a giant wave appears from behind and crashes onto them, in which both of them survive but are dragged down into the ocean by a set of tentacles. After regaining consciousness, Yuto meets Shizuku, who warns him that his awakening as a Demon Slayer will destroy the balance between humans and ayakashi.

The next day after receiving a compliment from Yuto about her housework, Shizuku berates Himari on her inability to do anything else besides fighting, deeming her as unfeminine. Later, Yuto, Rinko, and Shizuku arrive at Café Relish, where it is revealed that Himari is working as a cat-eared maid which catches Yuto's allergies. Following an intervention from Lizlet, the café's head waitress, after Himari is caught flirting with Yuto, Himari warns him that Liz may be an ayakashi.
