GiroNatsu

Thanks to Funimation and Crunchyroll, I've been binging on "Sgt. Frog." I just watched episode 269, which includes the story "Geroro: Escape from Natsumi," in which Natsumi unwittingly eats a slice of cheesecake, not knowing that Tamama brought it from Keron and it has a mold in it which will take over the body of a human who eats it. Natsumi is in danger of dying unless someone can go into her body as in "Fantastic Voyage" and destroy the core mold. Giroro volunteers for the job and saves Natsumi, though it looks as if he's going to be killed in the process. He's saved at the last minute and Natsumi is so grateful, and relieved that he's all right, that she embraces him like in this image, though she's weeping in the process. Plus, she's hugging Giroro so hard that he can't breathe, which is where the story ends. And I couldn't help but think that, if she had squeezed him to death, he would've been happy. One of my favorite episodes of the series.
