Petite Princess Yucie vol. 4

Review
It is time for the Harvest Festival to take place, so the girls get dressed up in costumes, with Yucie in an adorable cat outfit. Arc shows up and wants to meet the hero Gunbard, who happens to be Yucie's father. Arc believes he made the Eternal Tiara, however, Gunbard tells Arc he was not the one. The real highlight of the episode, and the whole disc, is when Arc is leaving her house and Yucie runs out after him to confess her true feelings to him and asks if he will wait for her until she becomes the platinum princess.

Working towards the requirements for platinum princess, the girls head out to the fairy world in search of another crystal flower. They get a clue from a fairy who tells them it is at the highest point in the fairy world, at the top of a very large tree. The tree is a tough climb for the girls due to the strong winds and Cocoloo is blown off when they finally reach the top. Luckily for her, Beth is able to save her and they retrieve the crystal flower. Even though Beth saved Cocoloo, she still refuses to return to the princess academy when Cocoloo invites her back.

There is also a cute little episode centered around the stewards. Elmina's steward, Balizan, malfunctions because rainbow butterfly scales that have been blowing around the air recently happened to get inside his body. Cube uses his magic to make all the stewards minature sized so they can go inside Balizar and fix the problem. It is filler, but it's just as cute and fun as many of the other episodes.

This volume continues to provide more fun from a show I am having a great time with.
