3. Episode 22 Recap

Ten gets a strange bottle from a man, and when he goes to show it to Lum, he unwantedly traps her in it. She breaks out of it but is now very small in size.

She sends him to buy the big bottle to return her to normal. When Ataru comes in, she manipulates him by saying that she is sick and only Ataru’s affection and love can turn her back to normal.

Ataru doesn’t believe her story. When returning from school, he hears Lum talking about the bottle to the big cat. He throws her in a cage. Ten finds out that the man he bought the bottle from is smashing all his bottles, and by sunset, he will destroy all of them.

Ten rushes to inform Ataru. Ataru goes to fetch Lum, but she doesn’t listen to him. He manages to get her on Ten’s scooter, and they somehow reach the man right on time, and Lum returns to normal.

Shinobu saves a little fox from some dogs and hands over the fox to the police. However, the fox falls for her and starts following her around. When she goes to school, she meets the fox, who has become a little boy.

He pretends to be Ataru. Everyone wonders what happened to Moroboshi. When the real one arrives, the fox is forced to reveal his true form. Shinobu understands that he wants to repay her for the other day. However, the fox returns as their class teacher and starts teaching.

Tomobiki High School is full of beautiful girls. Hence they are holding a contest to help the girls show their true elegance and charm. The winner will be crowned the queen of the school.

The contest is called Tomo-1 Queen Contest. After the preliminary round, which checks the strength of the girls, Lum, Ran, Shinobu, Ryu, and Sakura are selected for the next round.

The winner will be decided in the next episode.
