Episode 12 Story

Still unable to hide their shock after learning that Cure Arcana Shadow is actually a phantom thief, Anna Akechi and her friends begin investigating on their own. Although Jett-senpai has contacted the Curett Detective Agency in London, they are told that a response will take time, prompting them to gather information themselves.

Meanwhile, Luluka Moria is summoned by Gouemon and visits a CD shop. A customer named Masami is wearing a bracelet that contains a Makoto Jewel, but if the bracelet were to break, the feelings placed into it, along with the Makoto Jewel, would disappear.

As Gouemon struggles to figure out how to obtain it, Luluka tells him she has an idea. In exchange for being treated to ice cream, she disguises herself as a shop clerk and infiltrates the CD store.

While observing Masami, Luluka notices Anna and the others entering the store. When Mikuru Kobayashi spots the bracelet and speaks to her, Masami reveals that she has poured her feelings of unrequited love into it.
