Trouble Chocolate (Vol. 1)
Complications ensue when Cacao, the hero of this romantic comedy, awakens to find the green-haired Hinano in bed with him. As he reconstructs the previous day, he learns that he sneezed as Professor Ganache was casting a spell, causing a forest spirit to enter a marionette's body and create Hinano. Klutzy and perennially famished, Cacao is another in the long line of agreeable goofs with untapped potential, in this case the ability to become a 'great sorcerer'. Hinano adores Cacao, to the chagrin of the dashing Truffle, who is smitten with her. The filmmakers spoof the clichés of animated romances - sparkles, breaking waves, waltzes, princess costumes, etc. - in the relationship between blond Deborah and handsome Captain Muratake.
