Episode 1 opens with Kou and Nazuna engrossed in a video game session at Nazuna’s apartment. Their gaming is abruptly interrupted by Niko and Hatsuka, who switch off their console to divert their attention. Niko insists on dragging Kou out somewhere, but Nazuna protests, unwilling to let Kou go. Despite the brief argument, Niko manages to take Kou along, leaving Nazuna with Hatsuka.

Surprisingly, Kou finds himself at Nazuna’s sister’s residence where the group gathers to listen to the tale of his and Nazuna’s teenage romance while indulging in drinks. Kou is not enthused about being entertainment for the evening, even if Niko insists that they are merely trying to “help him with his romantic endeavors.” However, the charade unravels quickly as Nazuna’s sisters laugh openly, leaving Kou feeling rather disgruntled.

Meanwhile, Hatsuka takes Nazuna out shopping, encouraging her to try on a more feminine outfit, suggesting that her typical attire is too provocative. Hatsuka believes that a balance between sexy and cute might catch Kou’s eye. This realization leaves Nazuna puzzled about why Kou never expresses interest, even after visiting a love hotel together.

At Niko’s gathering, it becomes evident that Kou remains naive about romance and hasn’t experienced a true romantic awakening. His lack of a first love is deemed ‘pure’ by Nazuna and the others, who choose not to dwell on this matter. Afterward, Kou and Nazuna embark on a nighttime outing in Tokyo. Although Kou is oblivious to the city’s allure, Nazuna seems genuinely excited. They sneak into a zoo, only to find that the animals are relocated at night, leading them to a rather quirky goal: to observe couples in Tokyo’s alleyways to decipher romance, a plan that seems both creepy and unlikely to yield success.

3. Anticipations for Episode 2 of Call of the Night

With Episode 1 reintroducing us to the familiar nightlife of Kou and Nazuna, many key characters appeared, albeit Mahiru and Akira were notably absent. The narrative hints that Kou has a mere 10 months to understand love, a fact that looms heavily as he grapples with his ignorance. This season aims to delve into Nazuna’s past, so viewers can look forward to potential revelations in the upcoming episodes, possibly introducing new characters like Nanakusa Haru and Hoshimi Kiku.
