<![CDATA[The Chimame Squad is made up of three people: Chino, Maya, and Megu. Compared to Chino, who works at Rabbit House, and Maya, who is aggressive, Megu seems a little quiet and inconspicuous. However, if you look closely, you'll see that she is quite unique, surpassing Chiya and Aoyama-san in being the most airheaded character in the series. Will Megu, who has no scheming skills at all, continue to show her airheadedness in the third season of the anime? In this article, we'll be introducing episodes in which Megu plays an active role, starting from Volume 5 of the manga, which is the setting for the third season!  

Megu gets lost chasing a butterfly

Bubbles and Megu
The fluffy and gentle Megu is just as gentle as she looks. When she comes to Rize and Sharo's school for a school tour, she leaves Chino and Maya behind and heads to the bathroom, but she goes missing. Maya laughs and says, "She's probably fascinated by the flowers and chasing butterflies and gets lost," and Chino agrees, saying, "That's typical of Megu." As for what actually happened... When Megu found Rize and ran over to her, a butterfly was flying in front of her. From this depiction, it seems that Maya's prediction that "they got lost while carrying the butterfly" was correct. By the way, even in this situation, Megu wasn't lost, but rather told Lize that "Maya and the others were lost" (lol)

Not just her personality! Megu's hair is also naturally wavy

When you think of "curly" in GochiUsa, you probably think of Sharo, but in fact Megu's hair is similar to Sharo's, with natural waves. Although she doesn't usually care much about it, Meg was also worried about whether she could trim her hair or do something about her frizzy hair before the school album photo shoot. At that time, she remembered Sharo, who has the same hair texture. She headed to her house hoping to get advice on the hairdresser and good treatments, but there she saw Sharo getting her hair cut by Chiya to save money. While they were arguing over whether Chiya or Sharo should cut Meg's hair, Chiya's grandmother appeared... "I'll take care of those cheeky, natural waves!" she said, and used "something" that she uses for the rabbit's bean paste to make Meg's hair beautifully smooth and straight.
 

Meg is so cute in her Halloween activities!

Actually, Meg's Halloween poster is also sold as merchandise unrelated to the anime... Anyway, the Halloween Meg that appears in the 6th volume of the comics is cute! She goes around coffee shops with Maya in a fox costume, but she suddenly has to help out at Ama Usagi to help Chiya, who has injured her hand. She works as a waitress while still in costume, and brings the ordered items while saying, "The pumpkin-headed vampire king (pumpkin pancake) has descended~" and "Become his servant~!" Many Meg fans will probably instantly become familiar with this scene (lol). By the way, the third season of the anime is scheduled to air in October. Given the season, I think there is a very high possibility that this Halloween episode will be animated, so Meg fans, please look forward to it!
 

Meg decides on her high school choice with a "dazed" expression.

One day, Meg came to Rabbit House after hearing that a cram school was opening and asked Cocoa to help her study for the entrance exam. Some people said that Lize was more suitable than Cocoa to teach her, but since Lize also seems to be having a hard time with her exams, Cocoa was asked to do it this time. (Although Lize was a little sulky about losing the role of teacher...) Cocoa excitedly asked, "Does that mean you want to go to the same high school as me if you're going to be taught by me?" Meg answered with a smile, "No, you're not." She said that she would take the exam to attend the school for rich girls where Lize and the others go, which is also her mother's alma mater, and excited Cocoa, asking, "Is that really what you want, Meg-chan!?" Meg simply replied with a blank look on her face to Cocoa. Even Cocoa, who is known for her flustered attitude, said, "Really?!" and made a comment.
 

The fastest growth rate in the Chimame Squad? But Megu's insides are the same as ever...

"The Chimame Squad. Meet at the hot spring pool as soon as you finish studying." After receiving such an email from Rize, the Chimame Squad changed into their school swimsuits and came to the pool. There, Chino and Maya said a shocking word... "Did Megu gain weight?" "You did." Even Megu couldn't hide her shock at these words. Rize brought cookies as a gift, but she was becoming paranoid, saying, "They say that Maya-chan and Chino-chan will turn into pigs if they eat too much..." After that, Chino said that she hadn't gotten fat, but had grown taller, and told her not to leave us behind, but when she saw Chino and Maya talking about their future plans, Megu muttered, "I think they're the ones who've grown up more."

Megu skillfully drowns

When you think of someone who's bad at swimming, the first person that comes to mind is Chino, who has drowned before, but Megu is no less bad at it...maybe even worse than Chino. When they competed in the hot spring pool, Maya swam normally and Chino managed to swim using a beatboard, but Meg used a swim ring. Even Chino was worried about Meg, saying, "Meg, you're doing things at your own pace," but her worries were in vain as she was found submerged upside down in the swim ring.
 

When she becomes a high school student, will she work part-time at both Rabbit House and Ama Usagi?

Meg and Maya had Rize make them Rabbit House uniforms. The two of them made Chino happy by saying that they would wear them again next year because they would be able to officially work part-time. However, things take a sudden turn at Christmas! Meg gives Chiya an obidome as her secret Santa, but at the same time she buys a matching one for herself. The reason is, "I thought that next year I would work part-time at Amatoan and wear a kimono..." Meg, Chino, and Cocoa all reacted to this. Chino was particularly anxious, and asked, "You're working both at our store and ours!?" Then, when giving Meg her present, she bribed her by saying, "Please make our store your main business and patronize us..."
 

Meg's ideal big sister is Cocoa!

Although Meg has a strong image of being clumsy, as already introduced in the anime, her family runs a ballet school and she is skilled enough to help her parents teach ballet to children. The image of an older sister that Meg admires is Cocoa, who is fun, kind, and cares about her younger sister! Today, when I turned around to teach ballet to the children, I saw Cocoa for some reason... They had made a promise to go skating together next time, and it seems that she came to learn ballet to show off her spins there, but she has no experience skating! Nevertheless, the two of them headed to the skating rink on their day off, aiming to become swans on ice.

The distance between Megu and Maya somehow grew as a result of showing their true abilities in skating

Humble Megu
The two secretly came to practice skating on a holiday, but it seemed like everyone was thinking the same thing, and the usual members were all gathered at the skating rink. The two practice in costumes to hide their identities. Then, they found a child who had fallen and was crying in front of them, and Cocoa ran to help the child, but she got too excited and crashed into the wall. Then Megu overtook Lize who was trying to help and rescued the child with a big jump. She couldn't stop and ended up spinning around, but she was able to save the child safely. Maya, who was watching the situation, apologized to Megu for thinking she was slow. As a result, she respectfully asked, "Please let me call you Meg-san," which made her feel distanced from her. Meanwhile, Cocoa, who had fainted, was depressed that she was no good as a big sister, but Megu seemed to admire Cocoa, who still turned everything into fun.

The first person Megu told her about passing the exam was...

Blushing Chiya and Megu
After the exam was successfully completed and the results were announced, Megu went straight to her idol Cocoa... or rather, to Chiya, who had been watching her studies closely, to report the results. Megu showed her the results with a gloomy expression. Chiya, who received the results, also looked at them with a serious expression that she usually doesn't show. But the result was a pass! Megu stuck out her tongue and told them that it was a prank, and the two hit each other with paper fans and finally hugged each other in joy.

Smiling Megu
So far, we have introduced the episodes in which Megu is likely to appear in the third season of the anime. What did you think? Megu's idol is Cocoa, but her natural combo with Chiya is also good! Be sure to pay attention to her interactions with Chiya in the third season of the anime!
