Yondemasuyo, Azazel-san - Cow Transformation

When Sakuma Rinko, a demon-summoner's apprentice, accidentally summons the wrong demon and offers him an inadequate sacrifice, she begins to transform into a cow as punishment. Further context below.

The anime is called Yondemasuyo, Azazel-san (Eng: You're Being Summoned, Azazel, JP: よんでますよ、アザゼルさん。), based on a manga of the same name, featuring this same scene, though only briefly (5 or so panels) and not nearly as detailed. This particular scene comes from the very first OVA, released Feb 23, 2010 as part of special editions of the 4th volume of the manga, prior to the anime series' full production. It is called "Naki-ushi-hen" (泣き牛編), translated as "The Crying Cow".

This scene is otherwise known as "Cowing Up!"

Now with subtitles! Hopefully YouTube's translation is up to the task for supporting other languages. These subtitles are an amalgamation of two alternate subs provided by DeadFish and WhyNot, with some very small additions from myself. The meaning should be intact.

CONTEXT FOR THIS SCENE:

Moloch (the small bull demon) was summoned by accident because Sakuma drew the wrong symbols on her summoning circle while practicing. She had prepared the curry earlier as a sacrifice for a different demon, Beelzebub. Beelzebub is a fly-like demon who is obsessed with a nasty substance that visually resembles curry, making it an ideal sacrifice. Moloch on the other hand is a very powerful demon and demands far more (in the beginning of the OVA he shows off a jewel he was given that belonged to royalty), and rejects the curry. Presenting a demon with an inadequate sacrifice breaks the rules of the summoning grimoire (each demon has one) and results in the transformation. The Azazel and Moloch then taunt her with the song because, outside the bounds of the rules they're forced to follow, they are generally contemptuous of humans.

However, her mentor Akutabe shows up in time, and he has such a threatening aura that he is able to force Moloch to eat the curry with thanks, the demon's acceptance instantly reversing Sakuma's transformation before it becomes irrevocable.
