Magical Angel Creamy Mami

The adventure of Zashikiwarashi (1x18)

Air date: Oct 28, 1983

While evading the wrath of the frustrated production staff for interloping onto the production set and leaving a trail of destruction as she is being chased around, Zashikiwarashi searches around for another playmate before settling upon Yuu who is having a blast. While the mythology associated with Zashikiwarashi expounds upon her bringing happiness to the homes she visits, such is a long way off when Zashikiwarashi shows up the adults who then give chase after her although Zashikiwarashi herself means no harm and has not a mean bone in her body -- not with how she behaves toward Posi and Nega along with enthralling the kids with her charisma. Galvanized by Zashikiwarashi's prologue of boredom and loneliness, Yuu lends Toshio and Midori as surrogate friends as she decides that an engagement with Creamy Mami is in order -- a decision easier said than done with having to retrieve the wand which appears out of reach. True to Hayato's anxious admonition, Zashikiwarashi does act out her impatience for Creamy Mami which interferes with the show but also has the ultimate ironic silver lining of celebrating Megumi who has been marginalized in favor of Creamy Mami.
