What I find interesting about ALL of Takahashi's early manga adaptations is the anime versions SHOW where they kinda glossed over subtle details in the main couples manga dynamics but STILL ultimately got to the point!

You can TELL this was SUPPOSED to be after Ran was shortly introduced but the anime was running on fumes at this point and adapted it here!

Yeah...Ataru deserved ALL of that! Also I wanna point out this is adopting the earlier manga chapters and contrasts with a leter episode is his whole "pickup" routine!

Also wanna point out this is the last episode to air in 1985. As this aired on Christmas day of that year!

To point out to @furinkan.com that lists this as an anime original episode the basis seems to be from Volume 7, Chapter 62 "Fortune Fear"!
