Whole thing made no sense at all, but gave me some good laughs. Good to see the mom back in authority.

Uwaa the mom became so seme, on both the son and the daughter. And she just sat on the couch all nude spilling all the water onto her body XD

Surprising to see the husband and wife being so lovey dovey at the dinner table after his being cold her all this time.

Safe to say the daughter is true daughter of the mother, so their yuri scene was probably incest. But the son refers to both the parents by name, so he is not blood-related to either?? -(°_o)/¯

And gramps is not human it seems...

The story got rather silly this episode. The animation and scenes were unimpressive, felt nothing for the orgy or double penetration. The bodies coulda looked better as well.

I love the scene when the stepdad's trying to leave the room and the door suddenly opens...revealing a naked Koichi and Yuuki (who could've seen this coming?).

So I did some research on the Stepdad, and couldn't find anything in Japanese folklore that would be EXACTLY like portrayed in the anime. BUT! I did find this spirit called Daitengu, which is said to be a spirit of a knowledgable man, often a priest who strayed from the teachings of Buddha (would explain the ritual beads and bell on his neck). Daitengu is characterized by his red skin (when on the roof, stepdad wears red), and a very long.... nose. Sometimes they are said to be evil demons, and other times they are portrayed as guardian spirits, so there is a lot of room for interpretation. Some are even enshrined and revered as kami.

So, I don't know if I'm right, but unless someone can come up with a better explanation, my money is on Stepdad being a Daitengu. Possibly while he was still alive he was a Buddhist priest, but didn't exactly stick to the teachings (and we might have an idea in what way), then died but didn't really inform his family, and instead continued living with them as Daitengu, until the events of the anime. At least that's my interpretation.
