YES IT'S MY FAVORITE SCENE!!!
It's so fucking funny on like 10 different levels.
The comedic timing of Saiki getting distracted exactly when Toritsuka confidently thinks that he's being protected
The fact that coffee jelly obviously outweighs Toritsuka's life in Saiki's mind. And it's not even a fancy one probably lmfao
The fact that Aiura must've offered it to Saiki and then taken off running, or even funnier, just ran past him with the coffee jelly in hand.
The fact that Saiki actually fucking chases after her when he could use telekinesis to grab the jelly or electrokinesis to stop her in her tracks or even teleport in front of her.
Saiki's absolute brain-empty response to coffee jelly.
Look at that running pose. He can fly and run at the speed of light!!!
Aiura laughing delightedly because Saiki probably has the dumbest expression on his face and eyes only for the coffee jelly
The fact that Aiura is holding the coffee jelly over her head as if the extra distance could really prevent the madman from getting it
Also by the time they meet up with Toritsuka and Hii in the science room, the coffee jelly is gone, and while we unfortunately didn't get to see the end of the chase, there's pretty much no way it wasn't hilarious.
My guess is that once they reached the science room, Aiura turns and Saiki is still no-brain-cells reaching for the coffee jelly and she was gonna tease him about the whole thing but he looks so silly and excited about the coffee jelly (remember the puppy eyes he gave Toritsuka after dealing with KusuΩ?) that she just hands it over and he happily eats it and she's like "why are you literally sooo funny lmao" and the instant he's done he's all serious like "Toritsuka's life is in danger" and she's like "yah I know that's why I brought you here" and he quickly tosses out the container and turns to look cool and collected as Toritsuka comes in through the door and internally Aiura is just like "pffffft".
And on the sweet side:
The absolute lack of fear on Aiura's part of Saiki, the local god, and the absolute trust that he'll play along nicely.
Saiki, the local god, not using any of his powers and just playing along even though he looks completely silly doing it. Aiura is laughing at him and he doesn't seem to care at all.
Also Aiura must've been looking out for Toritsuka at least a little to try bribing Saiki into helping her save him. They both do care about him even if he's pretty shitty pretty often.
