WARNING: the following contains spoilers for Episode 7 of The Day I Became a God, now streaming on FUNimation.
The mysterious robed girl calling herself Odin Sato (real name: Hina) has declared that the world will end in 30 days' time, and Yota Narukami had better make the most of his last month on Earth. Odin is eager to help brighten everyone's lives in their last days on Earth, and it's Sora Narukami's turn.
Already, Yota has cheered up Kyoko Izanami by bringing her closure about her mother's death, and he also helped turn around the Jinjugi family's ramen shop. Now, Sora is ready to shoot her student film, and the entire gang is getting together to help. But they're not the only busy bees around here.
Sora Narukami, Yota's little sister, is normally quiet and shy, but she has serious creative talent, and she has finally finished a proper screenplay for a student film. Once she gives it to her brother for review and gets his approval, Sora asks Yota to enlist the aid of every single friend and acquaintance he has, since this project calls for a hefty crew. Yota reluctantly obeys, and once he makes some phone calls, everyone from the self-absorbed Kako Tengan to Ashura and Hikari, plus some extras, assemble to make this movie a reality. Kako is dying to play the fabulous heroine, but Odin forces her way into the role instead, especially since her godly robes are the perfect wardrobe choice. Yota ends up playing the supporting male lead, and Kako ends up an old wizard, complete with a long white beard.
Sora's movie is about the heroine's quest to save the world from destruction, and the kingdom is counting on her. The movie shoot goes in fits and starts, with Odin, Yota and Kako butting heads more than once over who gets to have the most dramatic accent and what kind of CGI to use. In between shots, Odin thanks Yota for helping her escape that reefer truck she had gotten herself trapped in, and Yota says it's no problem since he was repaying her for all the fun she gave him and his friends over the summer, like the quest to win over Kyoko Izanami's heart and the Mahjong tournament. The film shoot ends in high spirits, and back home, Yota comments brightly on how much Odin is enjoying herself here, far away from her supposed Asgard home. Odin gets defensive and claims she's only doing it out of duty.
Elsewhere, the genius hacker Suzuki is on a much more serious quest: to find out the secrets of Dr. Korogi, who had been researching advanced computers and algorithms. Was Dr. Korogi trying to predict the future with cutting-edge programs and supercomputers, or something more sinister? Suzuki is already on the trail, and now, he's using security footage and stolen ID cards to dig deeper and find a new lead. He gets just what he's looking for, and Suzuki's driver escorts him to Dr. Korogi's house to find incriminating documents and other evidence. But the place is already being torn down -- Dr. Korogi has moved out.
Undeterred, Suzuki demands the demolition crews tell him where the house's contents are being recycled, and the hacker runs off to the local recycling lot, where all kinds of junk is being fed into an industrial shredder. Suzuki risks life and limb to retrieve a few items from Dr. Korogi's house, and among other things, he finds a framed photo of Dr. Korogi with his young daughter, a certain pink-haired girl with bright eyes. It's Hina/Odin Sato, and this raises the possibility that her prescience is related to her father's work. What's more, Dr. Korogi and his partner were researching immune systems, which hints at topics like infectious diseases, auto-immune issues and more.
Could Hina be linked to an impending biological weapon's use, thus the world ending in 30 days? Or perhaps poor Hina suffers an auto-immune problem, and her claims of "the world will end in 30 days" really means she will lose her life in 30 days? Perhaps her claims of coming from Asgard really mean that she will go to heaven when her time comes soon, and become heavenly in a sense. All kinds of questions are raised from Odin's odd powers, her noble quest and the nature of Dr. Korogi's work. There is clearly more to Odin Sato than meets the eye, and the truth might be quite grim after all.
