| Tomoki Sakurai wants to enjoy "peace and quiet", but he has recurring dreams that involve an angel. When classmate Eishiro Sugata spots in the sky an abnormal structure that resembles a black hole, he convinces Tomoki, childhood neighbor Sohara Mitsuki, and student council president Mikako Satsukitane to join him for an investigation at a cherry blossom. Tomoki, being the only who shows up, witnesses a girl with wings falls through the hole, along with several large pillars, scaring him to death. He overcomes his fears and rescues this girl, who calls herself Ikaros. Calling herself a Pet-Class Angeloid from an unknown world called Synapse, she considers Tomoki as her master and tells him that she can grant him any wish. Using this to his advantage including a perverted scene, he gets carried away with what he would wish for. When Tomoki jokingly commands Ikaros to make him ruler of the world, this only causes everyone to vanish, since nobody would accept him as such. Ikaros suggests killing herself, seeing how upset Tomoki is, to which he affirms. As she creates a gun and readies to shoot herself, Tomoki stops her and says it was only a joke. Although he cannot undo the wish, he is able to make a different one, wishing that this was all a bad dream. Tomoki wakes up and everything is back to normal, except Ikaros is here to stay. | ||||

| After introducing her to Sugata and Mikako at school, Tomoki dismisses Ikaros to his home, but she leaves him with a special card. After Sohara trips and falls in class, Tomoki notices she is wearing panties with a dog print, but he subconsciously wishes she would change them. Later Tomoki handcuffs Sohara to force her to grant his wishes. But the card activates, and Sohara's panties immediately come off and fly to the sky like a bird. Sohara rushes to the New World Discovery Club room, but whatever she puts on is also sent flying. When Ikaros returns, Tomoki wishes for panties, but this results in having them instantly pulled from all the school girls. Sugata determines that Tomoki must be expecting a particular pair, so Ikaros and Mikako shop for a large selection of panties while the boys escort the young girl handcuffed home, during which Tomoki shields against any accidental exposure. Sohara tries the panties, but they are all sent flying, except for one that is a similar dog print as her original, releasing Sohara from the handcuffs. Tomoki recalls when Sohara was practicing breaking slabs and he pulled her pants down revealing a cute print of puppies, which fueled Sohara into breaking the slabs easily. | ||||

| Frustrated with their math homework, Tomoki and Sohara look for Sugata, running around town until Mikako directs them to his residence which is an outdoor campsite. After Sugata helps them, he informs them that the black hole may still be hovering in the sky, but Ikaros sees no sign of this. Later, Ikaros is given a shopping list of curry ingredients, and Tomoki tells Ikaros to behave like a normal human. As Ikaros goes shopping, Tomoki and friends tail her. She gets the ingredients except for meat, for which she buys a cute baby chick, leaving them with cooking vegetable curry. The gang goes fishing, but Ikaros surprises everyone with a giant fish from the Amazon River. Sugata questions her superior physical abilities and flying speed, yet contradictory lack of math ability and not being able to see the "New World" in the sky. Sugata confronts her asking what she is exactly, but Ikaros does not know and just wants to please her master even though she messes things up. | ||||

| The flock of panties returns to Tomoki after circumnavigating the globe, using them as decorations around his house, but an upset Sohara shreds the ones in his room in retaliation. Ikaros allows Sohara to use of her cards to make panties explode whenever Tomoki touches them or even looks at them for a day. With Tomoki trapped in his house, Sohara and Ikaros go shopping. Sohara shares a story of how Tomoki helped celebrate her otherwise lonely birthday. Later, Tomoki makes one last mad dash out of the house, but bumps into Sohara, landing his face on her crotch and causing another explosion. After Tomoki regains consciousness, Sugata and Mikako tell him that Sohara is stuck in his house, prompting him to rescue her, even though anybody else could have saved her, as he will probably be blown up inside. Sohara, without panties on, dodges Tomoki's searching but stumbles into his bedroom, activating a "Panty Robot" that guards his pornographic magazines. Tomoki eventually defeats the robot, destroying his house, and rescuing Sohara to the cheers of the neighbors, until he notices Sohara's thighs and subconsciously "pokes" Sohara, who blushes and karate chops him. | ||||

| Knowing that Tomoki needs a place to stay, Mikako offers him to stay at her home, and they bring along their friends as well. It turns out Mikako's family are influential yakuza.

Ikaros stops the executioner with a brief display of her power. The next morning, Tomoki finds they are on a plane to an uninhabited island as an alternative punishment instituted by Mikako. They split up to search for food and items, but Tomoki eats a mushroom and passes out. Tomoki hears yelling and rescues Sohara, but everyone else is gone, so the two spend the next few weeks enjoying island life until a sea monster grabs Sohara. Tomoki attacks the "monster", which is actually Ikaros, covered in shells and seaweed, who has returned with a big tuna. Tomoki asks where Sugata and Mikako are, and Ikaros does a scan and then knocks down a wall panel to a room where Mikako's family and Sugata have been watching them the entire time to their amusement. Later, Tomoki and Ikaros return to find his house restored, thanks to Mikako's father, who likes Ikaros and respects her power. | ||||

| Tomoki finds a second Angeloid known as Beta-Class Nymph in his living room. The New World Discovery Club as well as the two Angeloids all go to the beach. Tomoki promises to go boating with Sohara, but neglects her in order to teach Ikaros how to properly swim. Sohara heads off by herself, thinking back to when Tomoki tried teaching her, but soon finds herself far from shore. Sohara falls overboard trying to retrieve her paddle, but fortunately Tomoki, assisted by Nymph, rescues her. Tomoki apologizes and Sohara forgives him, until he neglects her again to review swimming with Ikaros, which earns him karate chops. Later that night, Ikaros tells Tomoki how she does not sleep, and the two go back to the beach. Nymph follows them but is attacked by a group of delinquents. When Tomoki attempts to intervene, Ikaros stops the delinquents using her Angeloid abilities, causing them to flee. | ||||

| Out of boredom and curiosity, Ikaros and Nymph join Tomoki and Sohara's class as transfer students. Sohara relishes the chance to help the Angeloids with school life, but they surpass her in all tasks, leaving her depressed. The Angeloids are quickly hit on by every guy in school and receive piles of love letters in their locker. At science class, Ikaros shows up as a guest teacher, with the subject of flying, while Sugata and Mikako sit in on the fun. Ikaros encourages flying and Tomoki volunteers, using a pair of wings that Sugata has crafted. He flies for a moment before crashing to the ground. As Tomoki recovers, Ikaros and Nymph are reading the love letters, but do not understand them. While no one else is around, Nymph grabs Ikaros's forehead, and checks her protection levels, seeing they are at one hundred percent, which explains her passive doll-like behavior. Nymph then reveals that Ikaros is an extremely powerful Angeloid known as the Alpha-Class Uranus Queen. | ||||

| The gang attends a festival at the Satsukitane shrine, with a cork gun survival contest as a highlight of the event. Tomoki soon finds himself hunted by many of the local townsfolk wanting the ten million yen prize, until Sugata and Mikako snipe them. Sugata then duels Mikako with pistols to a draw, until Ikaros arrives and guns everyone down. Tomoki dismisses Ikaros, who meets up with Nymph, who asks her how it felt to slaughter people like she used to. Ikaros insists she is just a Pet-Class Angeloid, but Nymph disagrees and removes her protection levels. As the awakened Uranus Queen, Ikaros easily overpowers Nymph, but spares her life, telling her to return to the Synapse. Tomoki returns to the shooting range man, who reveals he mixed real bullets with some of the fake ones. Sohara shows up with the real bullets and chases Tomoki to the shrine until Ikaros saves him by taking a head shot.

| At Synapse, after being scolded by her superiors for failing to bring back Ikaros, Nymph begs for another chance. Tomoki and the gang head to a fair. Tomoki spots an erotic DVD at a booth, but cannot afford it because Ikaros broke some other item. After Tomoki tells Ikaros to act more human, she overhears a couple talk about lying as being human, so she proceeds to tell her friends the opposite of what she means, leaving Tomoki and Sohara depressed. Nymph, first deciding to kidnap Tomoki, who is busy peeping on a couple making out, ends up working with him to raise money by opening a flea market booth with different ideas, none of which work at all. Nymph then makes Tomoki irresistible to woman by jamming their "cool guy" senses, which causes a large group of girls to swarm around him as a host club gentleman until Nymph cancels the jamming. Tomoki thanks Nymph, who begins to doubt her loyalty to her old master. Ikaros eventually reveals to the gang that she was telling lies to try to fit in, which relieves Tomoki and Sohara. That night, Ikaros wants to know how Tomoki really feels about her. Tomoki shares a story about how he was alone, and how when she and Nymph vanished he was so worried.

During practice, Nymph shows her music ability on the keyboard and gets praised by Tomoki for that, making Ikaros jealous, but the gang discover she has another talent. It is revealed that the Master of Synapse forced Nymph to rip the wings off a bird she was keeping for his amusement. The day of the festival, the private school orchestra plays a classical music piece.[note 10] Tomoki then sings a perverted song about nipples, but is stopped by Sohara. Then they play the real song,[note 11] and Ikaros surprises everyone by singing lead vocals. The audience is stunned but gives a resounding cheer, and Tomoki's school wins. The end of the festival has a bonfire dance where couples gather and hold hands. Nymph and Sohara jump at the idea of going with Tomoki but agree to let Ikaros go instead.

The next day, Tomoko blends in well with the students, and even becomes popular with the boys, despite acting like an ideal female character. Tomoko secures a bathhouse visit, and while the Angeloids monitor status, Tomoko has a field day accidentally fondling the girls, until the perversion blows out the transformation device.

| Tomoki tries to get Ikaros to smile. Their friends offer different suggestions, none of which proved effective. Nymph gets an idea that they should go on a date, and it ends up with Tomoki dating both Angeloids. They try shopping, ponder movie suggestions, and head to an amusement park and zoo. While Tomoki gets a drink, Nymph compares the caged animals to themselves and their collars. Thinking that will please Tomoki, Ikaros frees the animals from their cages. However, the animals attack Tomoki and strip him, which gets him arrested. After Tomoki is released, Nymph states the date should end with a kiss, but while Nymph goes ahead to get a kiss from Tomoki, Ikaros, unable to bear the sight of that, flies away stating that her reactor was in pain. Tomoki, clueless of what to do, moves towards Nymph, but she finds it embarrassing as well and flees. She tells herself that she hurt Ikaros and that she cannot sadden the lives of Tomoki and Ikaros anymore. She retreats to a remote place in the woods.

| The Harpies tell Nymph they are supporting her mission to help capture Ikaros because the Master of Synapse was worried about her, but, unbeknownst to her, the Master only sees Nymph as a puppet in his scheme. Tomoki and the others prepare for their Christmas party at his home, and Tomoki tells the others not to worry about Nymph since she has left before in the past. Sohara and Ikaros stay to cook, while the others go on errands. Ikaros, who has been increasing worried about Tomoki, goes out to find him, only to say goodbye forever. A confused Tomoki, after meeting back with his friends, decides to look for her. When Ikaros finds Nymph, the latter tries to talk her into returning to Synpase but they are attacked by the Harpies. Hurt by the betrayal, Nymph protects Ikaros but is knocked down. Tomoki, running out to the hills but uncertain where to go, is then fortunately accompanied by his friends. As the Harpies tear out Nymph's wings, Tomoki and the others arrive. Ikaros reveals her true identity as a Strategic Battle-Class Angeloid capable of mass destruction, but Tomoki replies he already knows, and orders her to protect Nymph and "to kick the enemy's ass". Ikaros battles the Harpies and goes to full Uranus Queen mode, while Tomoki and the others try to break Nymph's chain. They finally do so while Ikaros defeats the Harpies. As the battle comes to an end, it begins snowing, and they later celebrate Christmas back at Tomoki's house.

Nymph hacks Tomoki's memories so he forgets how to swim. Tomoki has Ikaros speed up the current in the lazy river that the girls' bikinis come off, although he nearly drowns himself in the process. Tomoki's next perverted plan is to morph into the floor of the girls' locker room and then changes into a pair of panties, fulfilling every teenage boy's fantasy until Sohara puts them on. Afterwards, Nymph wants Tomoki to order her to make him irresistible to women again but Tomoki refuses. Sugata talks with Nymph about Tomoki's kindness to her. Later, Sugata then tries a hang gliding experiment and succeeds. Nymph asks Ikaros if she can stay with them even if it means she could steal Tomoki from her.

Sohara Mitsuki is especially embarrassed as her dream world has many ecchi situations with Tomoki. Nymph makes some corrections to ensure they enter Tomoki's dream but instead of finding a grassy hill with an angel, they find themselves in a bizarre world with a tall monolithic column inscribed with illegible words and a hibernating evergreen tree, raising more questions than answers.

Sugata warns Sohara, Ikaros and Nymph about the new threat to Tomoki, but the two Angeloids are not concerned about the Delta-Class Angeloid Astraea, who has a lack of computational abilities, which proves true as she immediately bungles her attacks. Later, as Tomoki buries his dirty magazines, the Angeloids interrupt him with different schemes: Nymph, who is irritated by his lechery and dislike for small chests, uses a device to enhance her age; Ikaros incinerates his magazines; and Astraea transforms into a dirty magazine. Later, Astraea serves Tomoki his meal but forgets to poison it. In the ensuing fight, Tomoki, remembering his grandfather Tomozo's perverted advice, puts Astraea through his lecherous version of the Six Domains.

| Tomoki has a dream where Daedalus warns him of another Angeloid, who then interrupts the communication and chokes Ikaros. While Ikaros shops for groceries, an impoverished Astraea and Nymph raid Ikaros's watermelon patch; when she returns they try to regrow the patch but transform it into Venus flytrap looking melon monsters. After Astraea makes fun of Nymph's lack of wings, Nymph ponders how useless she is without a master. Sugata asks her to set up the Dive Game portal for some quick visits to Synapse, but during one of the trips, Nymph is pulled away for a date by Tomoki, leaving Sugata about to be attacked by the Harpies, until Daedalus pulls him out. Ikaros sees Tomoki and Nymph walking, and feels some emotions in her chest. Tomoki tells Nymph he wants to become her master, but before she starts the imprinting process, Tomoki tells Nymph to blow herself up. Nymph realizes that is not Tomoki, who then reveals itself to be the second generation Angeloid, an Epsilon-Class named Chaos, who chokes Nymph while questioning what is love. | ||||

| Chaos causes Nymph to have multiple hallucinations of Tomoki abusing her constantly.While flying Ikaros sees Tomoki with Sohara and goes to search for Nymph. Ikaros arrives to assist Nymph against Chaos. Daedalus reveals to Sugata that she is the creator of the first generation Angeloids, different from Chaos. Ikaros is manipulated by one of the hallucinations, ordering her to kill Nymph, but instead she tosses her far away from danger. Nymph finds Astraea and tells her to help Ikaros, but the Master orders her to destroy Nymph. Just as she is about to carry out her order, Tomoki stops her and asks whether she will do the bidding of the Master or find the strength to choose her own destiny. When the Master orders her to kill Ikaros instead, she flies to the scene, but she breaks the chains and faces Chaos to a death match. Although Chaos still has the upper hand, Ikaros arrives and fights Chaos unassisted, eventually plunging Chaos to the depths of the sea, leaving her being asked what is love. Astrea then managed to recover Ikaros with both of them pondering on what is actually love. | ||||

| For this year's festival at the Satsukitane shrine, Mikako holds a "yo-yo" fishing contest where all the girls are tied up in a pool, and the guys tied on ropes must grab them out of the water. The winner is whoever can catch the fish with the biggest "yo-yos". Tomoki transforms into Tomoko for this competition, teaming up with Sugata, while Mikako partners up with Judas. Tomoko manages to snatch some of the girls until Sugata baits the buxom Astraea with some snacks, but Mikako steals the catch. Sugata then brings up the "legendary fish", one whose measurements are still growing. Tomoko transforms back to Tomoki and finds the legendary fish only to be knocked out by her karate chop. Ikaros receives a farewell letter where Tomoki proposes to her. Tomoki clarifies by giving Ikaros and Nymph an allowance. After hearing from friends on different gift suggestions for Tomoki, Ikaros decides to follow Sugata's advice, and buys herself a watermelon, after which Tomoki affirms she did good. | ||||

| Tomoki seeks some alone time from the girls, first in the bathroom until he is washed out, and then in a closet where he is almost cooked and then washed out again. On a shopping trip with Sohara, Ikaros notices a bridal magazine and asks her about Tomoki's proposal. Later, Tomoki hides in his room and puts the final touches on his "summer project", a massive network of periscopes which allows him to peek at girls all over town. Astraea and Nymph each visit but Tomoki chases them out. Sohara visits as well, but instead of giving him a karate chop, she asks why he still peeps despite having beautiful Angeloids in his house, putting him deep in thought. After Sohara leaves, Tomoki loudly remarks how stupid Sohara was for not noticing his network. The girls get revenge by pretending to strip outside. When Tomoki peeps, the girls aim mirrors to blind him with sunlight. Tomoki retaliates by showing his "unit", shocking the girls. However, when Ikaros takes a look, Tomoki is making a kissing gesture, flushing Ikaros with emotion. She overheats, and decides to repair herself by erasing all memories of him. Meanwhile, Chaos, having interpreted love as inflicting pain on animals, emerges from the sea. | ||||

Tomoki goes through the Dive Game portal to meet Daedalus, who gives him a special lock, while Nymph and Ikaros join Astraea against Chaos, who easily subdues them despite their coordinated attack. Tomoki returns and tells the Angeloids to live and that he will be the master for Nymph and Astraea. The Angeloids manage to free themselves and are revitalized by his love. Nymph generates new wings and uses a hacking field to boost Ikaros and Astraea's combat powers. After Ikaros launches her attacks, Astraea does one final lunge, knocking Chaos to the ground. Despite Chaos's pleading to be "loved to death", Tomoki arrives and pets her head, and Chaos starts to experience feelings of genuine love. Tomoki then puts Daedalus's lock on the collar chain of Chaos. | ||||

| Tomoki and Sugata return Chaos to Daedalus. Things return to normal, with Nymph restoring Ikaros's memories, and Tomoko later teaches Ikaros bathroom etiquette. However, Tomoki has one more perverted task, which is to transform into pool water so he can fondle girls during swim class. After Sohara and Nymph drain the pool, Mikako decides he needs to be taught a lesson. Tomoko escapes the hunt by hiding in the girls' bathroom, but is eventually trapped. While Sohara saws down the door lock, Tomoko has no choice but to escape into the toilet and go through sewage treatment to the sea. Later on, Ikaros, in trying to practice bathroom etiquette of knocking and flushing, knocks a hole in the door and flushes Tomoki again. As Ikaros searches for Tomoki, Mikako sees her and offers to help with her proposal situation. A flushed out Tomoki is taken to a wedding chapel. With Sugata and Mikako presiding, Ikaros appears dressed in a bridal gown. She and Tomoki go through a wedding ceremony, but when they are about to kiss, Tomoki stops. Mikako then gives him a choice: he can pick Ikaros, Nymph, Astraea, or Sohara, all of whom are dressed as brides. Tomoki screams at the indecision, but the ceremony is interrupted by a reformed Chaos, who gives Tomoki a hug, and becomes the newest resident Angeloid. | ||||

Sora No Otoshimono Forte intends to be about the fanservice and fun with a decent dash of seriousness to try and tie it all together. It revels in its own nature to the right level but knows when to go over the top, such as right at the twenty minute mark with one of the best parades I've ever seen in anime. For that alone, this is a stellar episode. And that's even before we get into the special ending sequence for this episode. Just... perfect.
