ShortSummary
  • The characters decide to play Life, but all of the game's actions happen in real life. Skuld opens a company, Urd goes on vacations, Gan-chan gets married and has children, and Belldandy studies. When they try to quit the game, they cannot figure out how. They declare bankruptcy but end up working on a farm until someone dies in peace. (en)
  • While watching the rain outside, Urd watches a crow fly away. She takes a walk with an umbrella and rides down the river on a hat. She walks down the beach, travels on the subway, and walks outside, seeing the crow again. Then she sees Skuld, Belldandy, and Gan-chan, and runs toward them, smiling. (en)
  • Urd babysits three young rats named Ichiko, Jiro, and Juicy. They all want to play different games, so Urd replicates herself. She makes an obedience pill to calm the rats, but her plan backfires when Juicy forces her to eat it. Later, a thunderstorm arrives to the terror of the young rats, but Urd reassures them. When the group tries to take a nap, Urd and Juicy snore so loudly that Ichiko and Jiro wake up. Before she leaves, Urd promises to return another day. (en)
  • After eating a moldy cake, Gan-chan becomes ill. Urd and Skuld attempt to cure him using potions and inventions; they give him salt, exercise pills, silica gel, and a vacuum, but no method cures Gan-chan. Urd appears to solve the problem, but discovers that a side effect of the "cure" has turned Gan-chan into a mini-Godzilla named Gabira. (en)
  • Skuld throws a paper clip over the cliff and Gan-chan begins to climb down, only to fall along the way. Gan-chan uses some bulletin board tacks to stop his fall and begins to climb. Skuld and Urd imitate him, and Urd remarks that they seem to be reenacting the movie Cliffhanger. They arrive at the air conditioner, but it fights back with a security system created by Skuld. The four eventually destroy it. (en)
  • Having gained excessive weight, Gan-chan is unable to fit into his hole in the wall. Skuld and Urd help him slim down. Skuld tries several inventions, including Mr. Sauna, Mr. Icy Bath, and Mr. 4000 Years, but they all fail. Urd gives Gan-chan a pill that causes him to exercise. He exercises furiously and collapses, exhausted, after crossing the entire globe. However, they discover the next morning that Gan-chan ate gluttonously after this exercise and regained the weight. (en)
  • Gan-chan is running in an election and is faring well against his opponent, Gon, due to the help of the goddesses. However, Marller appears and offers Gon help. Gon hosts a party for the rat leaders of the temple and wins them over easily with the help of the ninja girls . He also starts a smear campaign and incites a crowd against Gan-chan. The goddesses investigate, and Urd discovers Gon plotting with Marller. (en)
  • The three goddesses battle the rat, but their attacks are ineffective, partly due to the poor mecha design. They try to escape, but the rat calls in reinforcements and blocks their path. The gang straps a piece of cheese to Gan-chan's mecha and he distracts the rat gang. Urd and Skuld find the treasure, but are disappointed to find it is only a gold-painted windup Buddha statue. (en)
  • Gan-chan has fallen in love with Kaoru, a pink female rat, and plans a date with her. He is extremely nervous, so Belldandy gives him a pill to calm him. Urd creates costumes for Gan-chan, including a bow tie and a red rose. Urd casts a spell on the rose so that Kaoru will love him forever, but Gan-chan forgets the rose. When Urd attempts to return it to him, he accidentally proposes to Urd instead of Kaoru. Kaoru departs, devastated, leaving Urd and Gan-chan staring at each other. (en)
  • To pick a leader for the band, the characters try several techniques that are all rigged. They finally decide to vote for the leader and Belldandy wins. They sell tickets for the band's concert and fix a mistake on the posters. The concert is attended by a huge crowd of rats, who pay with food. Gan-chan is nervous about the concert, but Skuld and Urd use inventions and drugs to calm him down. (en)
  • The ninjas enter the temple, intent on causing chaos. Mr. Patrol attacks Urd, but Urd deflects the shot and knocks out Mr. Patrol. The characters discover that Urd is a fake. The fake Urd attacks Belldandy, but Belldandy hands her a 500-yen coin, and "Urd" dashes away. The goddesses ask the real Urd what is going on, but she has no idea. Mr. Patrol discovers the ninja girls on the ceiling, and the goddesses demand to know who they are. Before they answer, they notice the time and dash off to watch their favorite ninja TV show. (en)
  • Gan-chan reads a number of train adventure books. He dreams that he is the Steam Locomotive 150 and travels on railroads while greeting the goddesses embodied as trains. Urd, as the Mallard Train, easily beats Gan-chan in a race. Skuld, as the Swiss Brienz Rothorn, climbs to the cupboard to snack. Gan-chan chases after her but to his dismay, he accidentally ends up at the roller coaster-like Extreme Thrill Ride Course. (en)
  • Gan-chan has a relapse transformation into the monstrous Gabira. Using the earlier strategy, Urd and Skuld bathe him in sunlight. Unfortunately, it makes Gabira even stronger. Nearly out of ideas, Skuld unleashes a golden mecha version of Gabira. The two grapple but later become friends, reconciling their differences and leaving the temple grounds. (en)
  • Gan-chan ponders the "average college student" mentioned in the opening narration. Urd and Skuld attempt to explain but, to his surprise, the description sounds like himself—working part-time, partying, eating and sleeping, and falling in love. He asks to see the student, but he repeatedly misses Keiichi, the "average college student". (en)
  • When Gan-chan gets stuck in a jar of miso sauce, he finds that the walls are too slippery to climb and too thick to break. He calls for help, but nobody hears him. He imagines what life would be like if he lived in the miso jar. Urd wants miso for her curry so she pours hot spices into the jar and stirs it, but does not take any miso out, so Gan-chan is still stuck in the jar. After falling unconscious, he manages to escape. He chases the goddesses while completely covered in miso, frightening them. (en)
  • Urd and Skuld argue about who is better at baseball. They duplicate themselves to form teams. Gan-chan and Belldandy emcee to a crowd of fake fans during the game. During extra innings, Urd and Skuld begin to play in ridiculous fashions; at one point, they mimic the tornado pitch of the Tasmanian Devil. Urd later disappears for her "ultimate pitch," and the others do the same, leaving the stadium deserted. (en)
  • Gan-chan desperately wants to experience stereotypical spring love, so he prays to God. As goddesses, Urd and Skuld wonder why he does not just ask them for help, but Skuld puts Gan-chan in her Dating Sim invention anyway. Inside the game, Gan-chan only eats and sleeps instead of entering dating scenarios, so Skuld forces him to "date". Gan-chan fails the scenarios several times until Skuld finally takes control of Gan-chan and completes them herself. He graduates after beating every scenario, but a tree falls on him, ending the game. (en)
  • The computer rats attempt several passwords to unlock Mr. Safety, but none are successful. The rats are led by Marller, who suggests the use of heavy artillery. Gan-chan subdues the terrorist rat squad, but Marller arrives and easily defeats Gan-chan. Just in time, the goddesses return. They greet Marller as a friend and talk with her, so she gives up. They open the fridge and reveal a cheesecake, which they share and eat. (en)
  • Gan-chan is launched into space by Urd and Skuld in a Saturn-style rocket. He orbits Earth before performing a moon landing, parodying Neil Armstrong's famous line by saying "One small step for rat, one giant step for ratkind." He plants a flag and takes a moon rock before returning to his spaceship. Urd and Skuld convince him to fly into deep space, but they leave him when Belldandy announces that dinner is ready, leaving Gan-chan alone in deep space. (en)
  • Urd, Skuld, and Gan-chan open a "Quick Fix" club. A pink rat is their first customer. Her son is stuck in a gap in the kitchen, and they try to save him with a variety of strange methods. Skuld begins building a robot, and Urd gives Gan-chan a pill. They fiddle with their plans for so long that Belldandy saves the young rat instead. Wondering how Belldandy did it, they try to recreate the situation by stuffing Gan-chan into the hole. (en)
  • Urd and Gan-chan host a chat show with questions from viewers. After answering one question, they are interrupted by an advertisement from Skuld Electronics Group. They attempt to answer two more questions, but the answers take too long. When Gan-chan asks Belldandy if she likes rats, Urd discovers that the "viewer questions" are all written by Gan-chan. (en)
  • The episode starts with Gan-chan, Skuld, and Urd walking in the snow, disenheartened and without food. Gan-chan faints from exhaustion, but Skuld refuses to abandon him. They use a ruler as a bridge to cross a cliff gap, but Gan-chan and Urd argue and the ruler breaks, sending them plummeting. Urd explains their situation: the air conditioner broke, but became overpowered after Skuld fixed it. Gan-chan wants to give up the quest to fix the air conditioner, but Skuld and Urd continue their mission. (en)
  • Gan-chan, in the form of Gabira, enters the kitchen. Urd self-multiplies to form an army, and Urd and Skuld set up multiple lines of defense to defeat Gabira. Using toy tanks, they slow down Gabira but fail to stop him. When the goddesses retreat to their final line of defense and play rock music, the mold is disgusted by Gan-chan's lack of rhythm when he attempts to dance. The stereo overloads. Keiichi finally destroys Gabira by exposing him to sunlight. (en)
  • The goddesses and Gan-chan find a can containing a vile-looking green slime that tastes delicious. The origin of this strange food comes as a surpriseā€”a mysterious vending machine that has appeared at the temple. When they enter the temple, Skuld, Urd and Gan-chan surprise the operators, who eject them from the machine, transform it into a spaceship, and rapidly depart. (en)
  • The rats hold a public debate, and Gon shames Gan-chan for the material dug up by the smear campaign. Gan-chan is losing badly, but Urd arrives with the captured ninja girls. Urd pops truth pills into their mouths, and they reveal all. Belldandy charms everybody and Gon apologizes for his actions. Gan-chan and Gon make amends and promise to run a clean election. On Election Day, to everyone's surprise, Belldandy wins instead of either Gon or Gan-chan. (en)
  • Gan-chan and Urd are now married. Urd has been a loving wife and treating Gan-chan extremely well, which confuses Skuld. Urd brings Gan-chan tea, washes his back, and even prepares a bed for them to share. However, when Belldandy and Skuld leave, the last petals on the enchanted rose fall, causing Urd to revert to her normal self, at which point she attacks Gan-chan. (en)
  • On Gan-chan's birthday the goddesses prepare a great gift. They give him the Goddess Wish Maker, which grants three wishes before midnight. Asleep, Gan-chan dreams of a romantic encounter with Belldandy, but wakes up in the evening without having wished anything. Since the Wish Maker grants any wish it hears, it grants the wish of one of the goddesses. Gan-chan hurriedly tries to grant other wishes so that the Wish Maker does not grant them, but he loses another. As he tries to think of his final wish, he wastes his final wish by wishing for more time. (en)
  • Urd incorrectly believes Skuld has fallen in love with a large Buddha statue, so she miniaturizes and animates it. The statue thinks the goddesses and Gan-chan are his disciples, and declares they must follow his teachings. Buddha notices how serene Belldandy is and hits the others, telling them to be more like Belldandy. When Keiichi returns, they revert Buddha to his original state. (en)
  • Gan-chan the rat wants a female companion. To help him, Urd arrives with a crystal ball and offers to act as a match-maker. However, Urd's choices are all inanimate objects. She finally settles on a kettle as the perfect match, and Gan-chan marries Mrs. Kettle. Urd gives the kettle a voice-over and legs during the honeymoon, but Gan-chan insists on Mrs. Kettle having her own voice. However, once Mrs. Kettle can speak for herself, she declares that she has fallen for another kettle and elopes, leaving Gan-chan single again. (en)
  • Gan-chan announces that he has a new girlfriend named Koharu-chan. Urd and Skuld interview him as a news crew would, and discover that he is attracted to the way she eats. Urd and Skuld then discover, to their disgust, that Koharu-chan eats everything offered to her. When Gan-chan tries to kiss Koharu, she engulfs half of his body with her mouth. (en)
  • When Gan-chan declares that he starts every day with Belldandy's morning tea, Urd begins following him as he hunts for food. When Gan-chan wakes up from a nap, he rushes to tea and repeats his routine. Urd, annoyed, argues with Gan-chan about how simple and regular the routine is. (en)
  • When Gan-chan expresses a wish to "fly like the birds", Skuld and Urd build for him a series of increasingly complex flying machines, paralleling the history of flight. The devices begin with Urd's attempt to build Icarus' wings, followed by Skuld's construction of the Montgolfier brothers' balloon, Otto Lilienthal's glider, Samuel Langley's Aerodrome and, ultimately, the Bell X-1, as Belldandy narrates. However, Gan-chan is still unsatisfied and wishes to travel to space. (en)
  • Gan-chan is having a bad day. Urd notices Gan-chan's ring has a diamond and asks if she can have it. Gan-chan's bad luck immediately transfers to Urd, leading her to conclude that the ring is cursed. They try to place a spiritual barrier on the ring, but it fails to materialize. The gang attempts to exorcise the spirit in the ring, but a black cat emerges, gives them a business card, takes the ring, and leaves. (en)
