Dorothy is over for lunch at Seravy's again, and they check in on how their young charges are dong. As Chacha and friends travel through the creepy forest on the way to the castle, they come upon a crying woman. Shiine thinks there is something strange happening, but Chacha and Riiya want to help the woman. Right before they are about to give her the coins they have been collecting, Shiine notices she is a tanuki. Riiya changes into the wolf cub when he sees her tail, and she runs away in fright. While Dorothy and Seravy are discussing their progress, Haideyansu and Yordas are giving a pep talk to a group of tanuki, convincing them to keep trying even though Riiya can turn into a wolf. They also give the tanuki a spray which hides their scent so Riiya can not smell them. The tanuki then transform into a Goddess of Love Fountain, telling Chacha and her friends that they just need to throw in a coin to have their wish of love granted. The trick works and the tanuki are able to steal all the coins. Chacha and her friends chase after the tanuki and eventually catch up, so the tanuki merge into a giant version and attack. As Chacha and her friends run away, they escape down a hole in the ground. The tanuki try to smoke them out, but they just go deeper into the hole and find a hidden chamber with murals about the ancient fight with the demons led by Queen Joan I. As they are discussing the possibilities for ancient use of the chamber, the large magic circle in the middle of the chamber begins to glow and the chamber raises them up to the surface where they can see the castle. The giant tanuki attacks them, but a magical barrier prevents them from getting hurt. Chacha then transforms into the Magical Princess and summons the Phoenix Sword. The tanuki transform into a giant bunbuku teapot which fires missiles at Chacha, but the magical barrier protects them again. Chacha is able to defeat the tanuki, and the stolen coins come raining down, each falling into one of the circles within the larger magic circle on the former chamber floor and causing the entire circle to glow. Chacha, Riiya, and Shiine each start glowing, and then are transported to one of the circles, with Chacha in the middle. Seravy, Dorothy, Orin, Yakko, and Marin are all transported to the circle as well, and Seravy tells the Daimaō that the Eight Holy Warriors have returned. The next step is to confront the Daimaō directly. (Source: Wikipedia)
