| 01 | とくべつ A Special Youma Child: The Birth of Pinako's Courage Start of a New Generation |
September 18, 2022 | June 30, 2023 |
| Pinako has finally been accepted into Shiba Koen Municipal Middle School after spending her first 6 years at Youma-Kai Elementary School. When Pinako brings up the fact she's not able to fly of her own volition yet to her mother, Minako opens the door to declare that she would be taking Pinako to school. Once the two arrive, Minako gives Pinako a pep talk. However, before she can give Pinako her transformation pen, Pinako dashes off, not wanting to be late. Pinako is picked on and ostracized on her first day for looking different and for being a Youma; she is then spotted and heavily berated by Omizuki and Mizudzuki before the teacher, Mortaur, piles on and validates the harassment before shooing Pinako off to receive a call from a mysterious man. Afterward, Mortaur asks if the man sent three youma to gather energy instead of two. Once Pinako relates her first day to her family, Minako is appalled and resolves to make Pinako one of the most popular students in the school by arranging a talent contest (which Kurenai refuses to let Pinako participate in before Minako forges her niece's name on the entry form). Pinako continues to be harassed throughout the week until the night of the contest arrives. Hiroshi performs his act before going out to pick on Pinako some more; Omizuki and Mizudzuki step on stage and sing a song that drains people of energy, which Hiroshi blames Pinako for with no proof, until a silhouetted figure berates him for his accusation. The figure also gives Pinako her transformation pen. Pinako figures she could use it in the talent show, but opens the door to find people drained of their energy--sans Mortaur, Omizuki, and Mizudzuki. The three transform and chase Pinako to the school court, where she finally transforms and barricades herself with her vines. Omizuki and Mizudzuki attack Pinako until they are attacked by a golden flash and a quick green whip. Two figures encourage Pinako, and she begins to unleash her attack on Mortaur, Omizuki, and Mizudzuki, who are destroyed; the stolen energy is returned. The next day, the students are reading about a Sailor Guardian that stopped an attack from three Youma, until they discuss the fact that said Sailor Guardian is also a Youma. The episode ends as someone asks to be Pinako's friend. Featured Monsters: Mortaur, Omizuki, Mizudzuki | |||
