Ep 7. Louise's Part-Time Job

Louise's Part-Time Job is the seventh episode of the first season of Zero No Tsukaima anime series. The episode opens with Saito and Louise arguing over how much of his salary Saito should give to Louise. Saito is working a part-time job for extra money and Louise sees this as an opportunity to bolster her allowance.

The next day, Louise overhears Kirche and Tabitha discussing their part-time jobs. Kirche is working at a theater, and Tabitha is working at a bakery. When Louise asks why they're working, Kirche tells her that part-time jobs are a common thing for nobles to do during their summer break.

After hearing this, Louise feels embarrassed about not having a job herself and decides to find one. She goes to the same theater where Kirche is working, but they tell her they're not hiring. She then tries the bakery where Tabitha works, but they tell her that they already have enough help.

Feeling defeated, Louise wanders around town until she comes across a maid cafe. The owner, named Siesta, offers Louise a job as a waitress. Louise takes the job, but only after Siesta assures her that it's a legitimate establishment and not one of those sleazy cafes.

On her first day of work, Louise finds herself struggling to keep up with the demands of the customers. She spills drinks and misunderstands orders. Just when she's about to give up, Siesta tells her that she just needs to be confident and a little flirty. Louise decides to give it a try and finds that the more confident she is, the better she does.

Meanwhile, Saito is having his own troubles at work. He's working as a construction worker, but his coworkers are bullying him, telling him to do all the heavy lifting and making fun of his accent. Saito tries to stand up for himself, but he's outnumbered. Just when things seem hopeless, his fairy, Tiffania, appears and gives him a pep talk. She tells him that he's stronger than he realizes and that he needs to believe in himself.

Encouraged by Tiffania's words, Saito stands up to his coworkers and proves his worth. He even saves one of them from getting hurt when a beam falls. His coworkers start to respect him, and he returns home feeling proud of himself.

At the end of the episode, Louise and Saito meet up and exchange stories about their day. Louise tells Saito about her job at the maid cafe and how she's starting to enjoy it. Saito tells Louise about his day at work and how he stood up to his co-workers. The two of them feel a newfound sense of confidence and pride in themselves.

Overall, Louise's Part-Time Job is a fun episode that shows the characters growing and discovering new things about themselves. It also highlights the importance of believing in oneself and standing up for oneself in the face of adversity. Fans of Zero No Tsukaima will enjoy this episode for its character development and lighthearted humor.
