Episode 2

Toyed With and Chased Around, Being Small Is Hard (いじわるされたりおいかけられたり小さいということはとてもたいへん, Ijiwarusaretari Oikakeraretari Chiisai to Iu Koto wa Totemo Taihen) is the 2nd episode in the How to Keep a Mummy anime series.

Synopsis
Sora isn't doing well in school and his friend Tazuki offers him some notes to copy which he will collect later, but Sora wastes time trying to solve Mii-kun's dehydration problem and doesn't finish them.

Tazuki comes by later but Mii-kun is still afraid of him. Tazuki tricks Mii-kun into coming closer and grabs him. He tries to remove Mii-kun's bandages to see what he is made of underneath. Sora rescues Mii-kun and berates Tazuki, comparing the bandages to human skin.

Tazuki apologizes and Mii-kun quickly forgives him. They become firends. Tazuki feels bad for toying with something so cute.

Mii-kun is still becoming dried out when left alone. To figure out why, Sora brings him with to school as long as Mii-kun promises to act like a stuffed toy when in public. However a female classmate, Asa Motegi, notices him when he sneezes. Sora tells her that Mii-kun is a stuffed toy that he will give to her as a present.

He then quickly makes a replica of Mii-kun to give her, however, in a mixup Motegi accidentally takes the real Mii-kun (whose still pretending to be stuffed-toy) and leaves him in her locker during Gym Class. Sora and Tazuki plan to rescue him but don't know how to get into the Girls Change Room.

Mii-kun escapes the locker and crawls through a hole in the wall and into the air-ducts where he is chased by a large rat. Mii-kun escapes outside with the rat in pursuit and runs into Sora who rescues him and happily reunites.

Motegi apologies for losing the "mummy-doll" and is given the replica by Sora.
