Pandora is back capturing her Gifts. I'm getting into this story more and more. I don't know why, but it's a bit hard to describe. I know what's going on, but it's a little difficult to describe.

There's a color first page and some comics about the author. She has one where she talks about receiving fan mail telling her that she can't draw breasts correctly, so she describes her research into a better drawn female.

7. 蘭の姉妹 (Sisters Ran): Pandora has gotten interested in Taiyakis and decides that she wants to learn how to make them herself. Her fishies don't come out perfect, but appreciates the lady who tries to teach her how by using her magic to fix her kitchen. Meanwhile, Aoi's older sisters are after him, so they dispatch the maid to come pick him up. When he refuses, the maid uses her servant, but Pandora defeats her and collects the Gift/Cupid.

8. 隷と犬 (Servant and Dog): While Pandora, Aoi, and Matsuyuki are visiting the Taiyaki grannie, a young girl arrives, 蒲原鈴蘭　(Suzuran Kabahara). With her glasses on, she's an innocent girl, but when she has her glasses off (usually by accident), her other more dominating personality shows. She wants to make Aoi her slave/dog much to Pandora's objection as he's already Pandora's slave. They argue and so they're told to take it outside. After falling into the river, they both seem to come to better terms.

9. 走れ鈴蘭 (Run ,Suzuran): Suzuran, the evil half, gets in an altercation at school with a rival, Maya who has a servant, Rose-sensei who's an English teacher. During the fight, Pandora jumps in, but it's a third party, a cool guy named 三十郎椿 (Tsubaki Sanjuro) who helps defeat Maya. Pandora claims her Gift/Cupid, Momosu.

10. あぶない恋愛感情 (Dangerous Love): Aoi is training hard to become like Tsubaki. His sister, Shunran, is having an audition for extras in her musical and Pandora thinks it's a good opportunity to get closer to her and snag her Gift. She auditions and wows the producers with her body, but her voice has much to be desired. Shunran has another member, Asami, use her servant and try to defeat Pandora. Pandora wins and claims Gift/Cupid Apate. After the battle, Shunran asks Aoi to come back, but Aoi responds with an "I Hate You."

11. 絆の真価／前編 (The Value of the Bond, First Part): Aoi has a nightmare about his past and his strange sister Shunran. While they're shopping, Pandora, Matsuyuki, and Aoi meet Shunran who uses her servant. This time, Pandora loses (Aoi, who's turned into a spoon for the battle gets cut in two). Aoi's sisters take the unconscious Aoi away.

12. 絆の真価／後編 (The Value of the Bond, Last Part): Pandora and Suzuran (belligerent version) go to Aoi's family's house to rescue him. Pandora finds him, but he's still numb from the defeat. Tsubaki shows up again just in time to unlock Aoi's cuffs. The rematch happens again with Shunran, but this time, Aoi is turned into a Spork and they win. Pandora retrieves Keeru and is allowed to take Aoi back.
