Summary[]
Ten orders two crystal balls called Love-Love Catchballs that supposedly show a person's destined mate, one for each gender.

Differences from the manga[]
- The story picks up at the table in the cafe.
- Ataru's parents and Cherry don't appear.
- There’s only one Love-Love Catchball, so Cherry, Mendō and Ataru don’t get a look.
- Lum sees through the ball before Ran, whose result is shown immediately.
- Ataru and Mendō remain outside the cafe and don't get in until after Tsubame arrives and Sakura sees through the ball.
- The scuffle at the end is a lot shorter.
Trivia[]
- Whilst hesitating to look in the Love-Love Catchball, Ataru pictures Lum giving him an electrified embrace in her joy upon hearing that he saw her in it. This is the first time that the "electro-glomp" gag has appeared since Episode 42, and it marks the gag's last appearance in the 1981 anime series.
