Memempu and Gagumber are taken to the Hill of the Wind, which is a massive labyrinth filled with rotten trees. Merooro tells them to carry out repair work in the labyrinth and restore the trees.

“Memempu and Gagumber are taken into the labyrinth ‘Kaze no Oka’ (Hill of the Wind) by Merooro as punishment. The place, once a vast forest full of greenery, has become a wilderness of rotten trees. Merooro, who has been struggling with the extreme weather in the labyrinth in recent years, asks them to carry out ‘repairs’ to restore the forest,” read the official synopsis of Episode 5.

In Episode 4, Memempu and Gagumber were arrested in the Jolly Jolly colony. Later, a man named Merooro, who worked for the Bureau of Regulation, came to see them.

After collecting their blood samples, Merooro told them he will inform them about their punishment soon. Merooro even confiscated their personal belongings and weapons.

He warned them that any attempt to escape will exacerbate their offense. Merooro recommended they visit the colony and do some sightseeing.

Turned out, Jolly Jolly was a beautiful and picturesque colony. Memempu was mesmerized to see the giant structures. Later, they also found out that Jolly Jolly was a colony of passion and people were quite fiery.

Later in the episode, they invited trouble and Merooro caught them red-handed while doing illegal activities in the colony.
