The Mysterious Doll Knights

Upon seeing a newspaper article about the Fantasy Kingdom setting up a museum exhibit in her hometown, Nanae Kayama reaches for a suitcase to examine one of the three dolls in it, predicting rough sailing ahead for her granddaughter Licca. A chance encounter with the university student Rui Makiyama, who tells them about the Doll Kingdom and the Doll Knights prior to rushing off to class becomes the genesis of Licca developing a crush on Rui, in contrast to Dai being jealous of the "weird" young man before both kids soon discover that there is something wrong when they are the only ones at the lunchtime rendez-vous point. Things quickly come to a head when Pull successfully isolates and illuminates Licca as the Doll Kingdom crown princess prior to Dr. Scarecrow's hasty capture attempt, which ultimately implodes the whole operation when Nanae bootstraps Doll Licca for battle, when her granddaughter's Calling Bracelet activates. A short battle later, Doll Licca demolishes the entire operation and easily foils her mistress' abduction.

Love Fortune-Telling of the Evening Moon

As if she had telepathically sensed it in her sleep, Licca dreams about Rui Makiyama after he arrives at the Kayama residence where Nanae and Orie greet him in earnest prior to leading him to his rented room; undaunted by Nanae extinguishing her voyeurism the next morning, Licca speculates on Rui's personality while Sumire daydreams about Dai during class. While Licca and Sumire revel at the pleasant surprise that is Rui Makiyama coming upon the girls exploring his room, Pull and Wire have set up a detective shop to acquire information to plan their next abduction attempt. Licca and Sumire appraising the efficacy of a girlish superstition the backdrop thereof. While Dai and Sumire initially find their adversaries too well prepared to repulse their inhibitory efforts on Licca's behalf, they ultimately buy time for Nanae to bootstrap Doll Licca for battle and Rui follows soon after as a supplement; the collaborative intercession is not enough to forestall the price Nanae pays for wielding the Doll Knights in battle.

Episode 3 • Oct 19, 1998

The Virgin Mary's Smile

Satomi is in for a blitzkrieg lesson of curiosity killing the cat when Dr. Scarecrow's attempt to take her captive panics the poor nun into being sidelined with a broken arm and sets the stage, for demonstrating why it is a bad idea to leave too much to the imagination, especially one not unlike what Dai possesses.

Episode 4 • Oct 26, 1998

Episode 5 • Nov 02, 1998

Mother's Birthday

Dr. Scarecrow is facing an obdurate objurgation to capture Licca who is merging computations with Nanae over the logistics of Orie's birthday party. Licca easily galvanizing her classmates obfuscates Pull fuming in frustration, as she computes how to comply Dr. Scarecrow's order to steal Doll Licca before directing Wire to follow Nanae. Orie's birthday is a fusillade of activity as Nanae leads the caterers in setting up the scene alongside Rui when the guests arrive ahead of schedule starting with Dai and Tomonori while Licca desperately tries to finish the dexter mitten when Orie returns home. The unfinished dexter mitten's ultimate irony is that its unraveling correlates to Pull's mission to capture the Doll Knights whose animation has no distance restriction; Dr. Scarecrow's abduction attempt foiled yet again is cold comfort to Licca until Orie interjects her perspective of the best birthday present she has ever received.

Disguising himself as the missing Professor Kanga Kurou, Dr. Scarecrow begins his operation in earnest by capitalizing on Tomonori's ambivalence about having to exclusively decide for science or his friends, which leaves behind a lot of collateral damage that quickly brings things to a head.

The ironic silver lining is that Pull and Wire's repulsing Dai climbing to Licca's rescue ultimately allows Doll Licca to do her thing; for Dai, Dr. Scarecrow's ambush still costs valuable time in transporting his edible payload home much to the family's consternation.

Episode 29 • Apr 19, 1999

Dad's Return

Even though he has not really done it that much, Rui Makiyama has contributed to the derailing of enough abduction attempts for Yae to conclude that Licca's father Pierre will cause even more damage if allowed to join the battle in earnest even though Pierre's thoughts are more on seeing his daughter and how she has grown up in his absence.

The Reliable Bodyguards

While it is not at all insignificant, the euphoric engagement she has enjoyed from Pierre is not enough to extinguish the underlying anxiety of his eternal absence, as Licca stares at him as if she were a love-struck adolescent before Nanae and Orie set her mind at ease prior to school commute.

Meanwhile, in the Doll Kingdom, Doll Licca finds that the desolation around her is the least of her worries when a group of knights converges on her.

Episode 37 • Jun 14, 1999

Two Doll Liccas

As naturally predicted, Misty's propensity for making crass comedy is no laughing matter for the none-too-pleased Yae who points to the lack of headway made in bringing Licca back to the Doll Kingdom.

Episode 48 • Aug 30, 1999

The Wandering Iron Mask Appears!

Upon seeing the desolation of the Doll Kingdom, the aggregate sentiment among the three kids is a broad spectrum running the gambit between excitement and anxiety along with guilt for Tomonori having been left behind; while the Doll Knights are reconnoitering the area after ordering Dai to cool his heels with the girls, Yae merely has an emphatic belly laugh as she orders her assassin operatives to extinguish the Doll Knights while she visits unto Licca a mind game using Pierre's voice.

Episode 50 • Sep 13, 1999

Scarecrow, King of Magicians

Much to Tomonori's horror, the ironic crass comedy of successfully capitalizing upon Pull and Wire's anxiety for Dr. Scarecrow's safety is to arrive right near Yae who is monitoring Dr. Scarecrow's battle with the Doll Knights. The ultimate irony of the whole circus is that Tomonori-tachi proves itself exactly what the doctor ordered to derail Dr. Scarecrow slaying the Doll Knights who then rally their powers to destroy the dragon; the dragon now neutralized, Kayama family and Tomonori have a very sentimental reunion while Yae and Devaul fume angrily about the foiled operation backfiring.
