Ep. 18: Letter Bees race Letter Pigeons in Yuusari to prove their delivery capabilities against unknown rivals.
Aired on February 6, 2010
In Yuusari, Letter Bees compete against the Letter Pigeons in a race led by Rose to determine the fastest postmen. Largo sets rules prohibiting dingoes, but the Pigeons use dirty tricks to gain an advantage. The Bees discover their pickup location is rarely visited, while the Pigeons face a Gaichuu attack that destroys their transport. Zazie eliminates the threat, allowing Rose to continue alone while Lag handles other Gaichuu. Lag defeats a second Gaichuu attacking Rose, witnessing her backstory as a friend of the orphanage who started the service to help those who cannot afford Letter Bees. Lag supports Rose to the finish line. Despite losing, Rose declares the Pigeons will continue delivering letters.
