Shutaro, initially against the idea of the arranged marriage, is now all for it when he hears from Ataru that Asuka is cute, despite her being scary powerful due to 15 years in armor. Ryoko, however, plans to put a stop to the arranged marriage with a giant army and later an armored suit. The marriage is soon after called off.
