Ep. 12: Junpei simuliert einen Fluch, um seine Verwandlung in eine Katze zu verbergen

12

Junpei suddenly begins to turn into a cat, having Kotone and Akari help sneak him out of the post office unnoticed. He feels that Kaede is suspicious of his secret, so he must find a way to dissuade her before being stricken with the full force of his curse. He comes up with a plan to fake being cursed by the maneki-neko figurine, having Kotone and Akari purifying it afterwards. However, Nagi accidentally takes off his hat which reveals his cat ears, causing him to run away to the park. At this point he fully transforms in a cat, and Kaede then finds him there, not knowing it is him. As the local cats in the area gather around her, Kaede realizes how Junpei cared for the cats, believing he was never cursed. This seemingly reverses the curse which returns Junpei back to a human but he finds out that it had just abated. Junpei must continue to do good deeds for cats as the new year begins.
