Chocotto Sister

The Idol's Melancholy (1x19)

: 15, 2006

Eriko Odawara ('Odaeri'), the idol famous for performing the Nekonyan Dance live on television every morning, is tiring of the role and bails out of a scheduled performance at the kindergarten in Choco's neighborhood. A chance encounter with Makoto (who it is strongly implied is actually the famous gravure idol Arisa Otokami) changes her mind about the true importance of her job. Odaeri then visits Choco's apartment to give her a private performance of the Nekonyan Dance.
