05: Deluxe Milfeulle Surprise Sandwich
The Angel Brigade has been dispatched to recover an information disc
from a ruined society. The planet has been unstable
for many years, but a surge in activity will destroy it soon so the team
is sent in now before it’s too late. With only one of the Frames
available, the entire team has to squeeze into Milfeulle’s ship, and
when she botches the landing Forte and Ranpha would rather not have her
along to get the disc. So they leave Milfeulle on guard duty, but she
somehow manages to get her face stuck in a stone pillar while screwing
around. So the team is on a planet that is about to break apart and the
only person who can fly the ship has her face stuck in a pillar.
Episode
06: Hug Hug Fish Pot
Forte and Milfeulle are walking around a desert region looking for a
reported Lost Technology, but aren’t having any particular luck and
the terrain certainly isn’t helping any. With Milfeulle in tow, Forte
is stuck helping every imaginable hurt animal that they come across.
Meanwhile, the rest of the team is in the planet’s major city where
every person insists on hugging them (the planetary greeting for
strangers apparently). Milfeulle and Forte start being visited by
friendly sprites of the animals that they’ve saved who rush up and hug
them. The situation start getting dangerous as the larger ones start
coming at them, but they still keep coming across animals in need (and
Milfeulle wants to help them all). So Forte comes up with a daring
solution… masks of Ranpha and Mint.
Episode
07: Chilled Mackerel with a Prize
War has broken out, and both sides are locked in intense guerilla
warfare within the city. One side desperately waits for reinforcement
from the Angel Brigade, but the team has been stranded nearby without
food – Ranpha, Forte, Mint, and Vanilla are sitting around a fire
hungry and cold. They wait for Milfeulle to return, and they listen to
the radio for news. When the newscaster reads out the winning lottery
numbers, the team learns that they’ve won 500 million! Now the talk of
dying turns surprisingly aggressive, as each person would become richer
as their teammates fall.
Episode
08: Slippery Pasta
Mint gets stuck with looking for some papers in the Vault, and she comes
across a Lost Technology that they’ve been storing – a duck’s head
costume. Knowing Mint’s cosplay fanaticism, it’s not going to take
much for her to try it on… but it has a rather nasty effect – it
removes all of Mint’s hair. Now balder than a cue ball, she searches
for information to reverse the affliction, preferably without the rest
of the team learning.
Episode
09: Overpriced Salad Bar
Ranpha’s successfully
completed her latest mission, but she’s run out of water on board her
Frame so she heads to a nearby planet in search of some. Finding the
beautiful planet abandoned, she heads into a restaurant still being
tended by a active serving robot. After she tries to get lunch from it,
and is served something completely inedible, she tries to slink away.
The robot insists that she pay her bill, and so Ranpha hands over GC
currency but the robot will only accept the planet’s currency. With
Ranpha insisting that she doesn’t have any of that money, the robot
believes that she is skipping out on the check and attacks ferociously.
How is Ranpha going to escape this one?
Episode
10: Angel Banana Discount
The Angel Brigade has been purchased! A wealthy woman has decided that
she would like the team in her employ and puts the members of the team
to work on the most difficult tasks on her planet. When the members see
how difficult they are, they begin to cut corners to get them done
quickly… which can only lead to hilarious results.
Episode
11: Painful Walnut Pie
Mint’s visiting the doctor after not feeling particularly well, and
he’s got a horrifying prognosis. She has Costume Disease! He states
that she will fall deathly ill if she wears another costume, and for a
cosplaying otaku like Mint, the cure is definitely worse than the cold.
The Angel Brigade know that she’s been hospitalized, but not for what
and each person brings her costumes, thinking that it will make her
happy instead of crazy. When finally released, her first mission is on a
planet in a Mardi Gras-like celebration where everyone is in costume…
How is Mint going to get past this temptation?
Episode
12: Angel Hotchpotch Taste Test
The Armed Forces are holding a competition to find Miss Female Soldier,
and as usual the Angel Brigade are in definite competition with each
other. As soon as the competition becomes less about showcasing
individual talents and more about sabotaging each other, you just know
it’s on!
Episode
13: Ultra Rare Fortune Cookie
The team is heading back to base after another successful mission, but
the fun’s over, they have to get ready for a general audit and the
team is going to have to do a ton of paperwork. That doesn’t sound
particularly good to Milfeulle, and with her luck, she subconsciously
opens a wormhole that drops the team onto a jungle planet nowhere near
their home galaxy. The environment is horribly tough, but as usual, the
only one unaffected is happy-go-lucky Milfeulle. How are they going to
convince Milfeulle to use her powers to get them all home?
Episode
14: Ultra Hot Kid’s Meal
Kokomo and Malibu get distracted and accidentally leave the Lost
Technology out. Ranpha finds it, and opens it to find a bunch of
different pastries which she brings to the rest of the team. Eating them
all, the team has been reduced in age ranging from newborn Milfeulle to
6 year old Forte. Now the twins are going to have to chase down the
entire Angel Brigade… poor, poor, bastards especially with all that
equipment on the base.
Episode
15: Good-bye to Our Steaming Teapot
Milfeulle gets herself arrested for laughing at the portrait of a local
monarch who has a horse-face. So Vanilla is going to have to break her
out of the prison before she gets executed. But how on the Earth are you
going to initiate and complete an elaborate plan with Milfeulle
involved?
Episode
16: Mustached Beef Rib Rice Bowl with Rich Sauce
MY FAVORITE EPISODE THIS SEASON! Forte and the Lt. Colonel are moving a
Lost Technology when they trip and it opens on them. The gas that
escapes seems to have no
effect, but the next morning both have changed genders! This would be
bad enough if it weren’t for Ranpha – the closeness that she’s
always shared with Forte is blossoming into full-on infatuation and she
intends to marry him! Her! Whatever! Forte is left with no option but to
run from the now insane Ranpha who will stop at nothing to make him/her
hers. A laugh riot all the way to the obvious finish.
Episode
17: Pour, Ambitious, Chilled Sesame Chicken
The Angel Brigade has fallen into some serious financial troubles thanks
to some infighting amongst the government and the higher up in the
military. So the food situation has become most dire, and Vanilla has
tried to raise money by becoming a street peddler. When she falls ill in
the cold, a kindly old man takes her home and brings her back to health
and he tells her about the rivalry between himself and his brother who
both wish to rule the world. Meanwhile, Milfeulle has found a high
paying part-time job for herself and the rest of the team. They have
been hired to help finish a giant robot for the brother, but once he
finds out they are forced to join the organization. So when he makes his
attempt at ruling the world, Vanilla and the brother are going to stand
in their way with his giant robot!
Episode
18: A String of Handmade Noodles with No Connection
2nd Favorite Episode this season. The entire team is in peril
– they dangle over a ledge, with Forte holding on for dear life to the
rock face while the rest of the team is in a chain below her. As the
argument starts over whose fault this is, the blame starts enraging each
member of the team. Once they fall, Mint is next to save them all… but
she’s none too happy about the conversation before and she’s in a
vengeful mood. Then they fall again. And again. Even again. And the
accusations become more absurd. Watch for Mint’s pet and Ranpha’s
Super-Saiyan-like transformation.
Episode
19: Bamboo-Cutter Platter
Taking a twist from the children’s story about the old couple who find
a baby in a bamboo stalk (The Bamboo Princess), we get a Lost Technology
shaped like a bamboo shoot that grants children to those who find them.
After the entire Angel Brigade ends up with babies, how effective are
they going to be as a fighting force?
Episode
20: Wandering Cat Food
Poor Mint is very upset about the death of her pet cat,
Miko, who has
been staying with her grandmother. Also, Milfeulle manages to lose her
wallet (again) and is crying over that. Ranpha to the rescue! She has
been reading an occult book and decides to use it to hypnotize Milfeulle
so she can remember where she left it, but she accidentally holds a séance
instead and summons the lost spirit of Miko. Now instead of a hypnotized
Milfeulle, we have a cat-Milfeulle. Things go from bad to worse once the
spirits starts jumping hosts.
Episode
21: Frequently Ordered Sushi
The Angel Brigade’s favorite day is definitely payday! With their
money in hand, they are quick to head out on the town in search of food.
They stumble across a new restaurant – the Sushi Dojo. The master of
the restaurant? A giant octopus. And he’s taken their paycheques as an
entrance fee. Will the girls be able to defeat a fast talking and
sushi-fighting opponent? Or will they get their money’s worth?
Episode
22: Fortuitous Family Set
The Salvatore family is one of the most wealthy families in the galaxy,
and when the patriarch comes to visit the Angel Brigade, he’s on a
mission. He’s come to seek out Ranpha, and he wants to reward her for
her kindness by making her his daughter. Seeing the zeroes involved,
she’s quick to trade in the Framboise name for Salvatore. Now with the
financial might behind her, how quickly will Ranpha rise the ranks? Or
abuse the system?
Episode
23: All-You-Can-Eat Juicy Yakiniku
Milfeulle has been studying a new Lost Technology. This one sends her to
an alternate dimension – the first of which is one where the entire
Angel Brigade is very career driven and efficient. Then the next is the
pirate dimension. Then the Basketball dimension and robot dimension.
Very funny.
Episode
24: Glitter Clunk Mixed Juice
Ranpha has suckered the entire Angel Brigade into a group date on board
a cruise ship… but the pairs seem a little off. Ranpha’s date is a
beautiful bishonen; Forte’s is a space octopus; Mint has a dying boy
(a la Hyatt); Milfeulle has the Lt. Colonel; and Vanilla has a rice
cooker. And from there, things only get worse.
Episode
25: Junk Ramen, Extra Noodles Available
The Angel Brigade is entering one of Milfeulle’s cakes into a baking
competition, but she doesn’t want to be disturbed or helped in during
the cooking process. So the rest of the team is hiding and helping on
the sly… but no one seems to notice that Vanilla isn’t her normal
self. SHE’S BEEN REPLACED BY A ROBOT! The controllers are a group of
thugs hell bent on ruining the Angel Brigade! How will they stop the
villains? Will the rest of the team even notice?
Episode
26: Continuously Pushed Sweet Red Bean Soup
The girls have recovered a very special Lost Technology – a little red
box with a prominent green button on it. The button just asks to be
touched… but knowing their track record with Lost Technology, it would
probably be best if they just left it alone. But the Angel Brigade being
themselves, they quickly discover that it can create an object that the
person who pushed the button wanted. But the cost is the reduction of
their life span indicated on the object created. Wishes fulfilled, but
at a terrible cost – not as though it’s going to stop those girls.
Bonus
Episode: Very Fried Chicken
This episode comes from next season (Galaxy Angel AA) and has the team
in a dire situation. Their budget for the coming year is going to
decides based on their placing against the Twin Suns Team in a flight
competition. Malibu has created the plane for his brother, but the
Angel’s entry is being brought in by push-cart when the competition
has already started… so the Lt. Colonel must compete using only a
chicken suit. This is not going to go well.
Aww,
it’s over already. That concludes the third season, now nothing to do
but to wait for the 4th Season to be licensed and brought
over. I’ll wait. No seriously, I’ll be here. Galaxy Angel AA. Woo!
