Ep. 5: Mea finds joy in animal antics while Riko faces maid outfit mishaps and gender confusion.

5

Mea feels down after the Azenda fight, prompting Yami to explain that life extends beyond combat. Nana seeks Rito’s advice to cheer Mea up, leading to a riverside event with various animals. Maron and other creatures compete to lick Mea, causing chaos that involves Haruna, Rito, and an octopus. When a monkey steals Nana’s De-Dial and leads her toward a truck, Mea attempts a rescue, but Yami and Lala stop the vehicle just in time. Nana apologizes, and Lala deems the operation successful. The next day, Mea learns about Run, an alien who switches genders, after hearing the principal discuss a poster. Lala demonstrates gender-changing abilities using Rito, who transforms into Riko. However, the machine fails to revert her, forcing an early exit. Mikan returns to find Riko in a maid outfit, disgusted by Mea licking her. Riko offers tea, but Mea overloads it with sugar, causing Celine to spit it at Riko. Sticky and uncomfortable, Riko struggles with her appearance while Momo observes, mistakenly believing Rito admires the female form.
