Ep. 3: Asuha visits Creature World and befriends Astarotte's classmates

3

Naoya brings his ten-year-old daughter, Asuha, to the Creature World. Astarotte becomes upset upon learning their ages, fearing it implies an affair when he was thirteen, but Asuha defends him. To apologize, Asuha enrolls in Astarotte's school, meeting new friends Mist, Yuna, and Lucca, who admit they lacked the courage to befriend Astarotte. As Asuha reconciles with Astarotte, rumors circulate about a human male on campus, which is revealed to be a rampaging zoo llama. Mist, Yuna, and Lucca defend Astarotte during the chaos until Naoya calms the animal. Following the incident, Astarotte successfully befriends the other girls, who affectionately call her Lotte.
