Anju is first seen in Tir Chonaill trying to gather eggs from hens, resulting the animals running away from her and also leads to a misunderstanding that she is stealing eggs. When the Milletian confronts her, she shyly apologizes before disappearing, dropping a note in the process. The note explains her intentions and Endelyon decides to forgive her, sending the Milletian to deliver eggs to her.
She is then seen with Hagi behind the grocery store, where the latter chastises Anju for her failure in her simple task and she messed up her ninja technique for leaving the note behind. Anju notices the Milletian and kindly accepts the eggs, and Hagi offers to let them join the duo. Hagi then proceeds to teach Anju and the Milletian various ninja skills; sealed ninja scrolls are used during the training, but Hagi refuses to tell the Milletian their true purpose, even warning Anju not to reveal anything. Anju is also requested to cook for the group, but frequently messes up.
Anju later mentions that she was initially bullied until saved by Hagi who was transformed into a bear. Anju thanks Hagi but he scoffs, nervously saying that he was merely trying to perfect his ninja technique. Anju then reluctantly agrees to be mentored by Hagi and receives a paper shuriken from him as a symbol of their team.
Hagi later tasks Anju and the Milletian to find a ninja scroll hidden in Alby Dungeon. On retrieval, Shinobi appears behind Hagi, resulting Anju pushing Hagi out of the way and receiving the fall. The Shinobi demands Hagi return the ninja scrolls he stole from him, stating that he can't handle the power inside, but Hagi flees, abandoning the Milletian and Anju. The Shinobi then tells the Milletian to tell Hagi to return the scrolls if he ever wants to see Anju again, then vanishes with his captive, leaving a Paper Shuriken.
After calming Hagi down, the Milletian returns to Alby Dungeon to fight the Shinobi, who then threatens to kill Anju after being pushed to the edge. Hagi arrives and says that he discarded the scrolls, then offers to take Anju's place. The Shinobi then attacks Hagi, who says he actually used the scrolls and turns into a log. The off-guard Shinobi is then attacked from behind, who then disappears in a puff of smoke. Anju praises Hagi's ability, and the group leaves the dungeon.
Upon returning to Tir Chonaill, Anju properly thanks the Milletian for training with her and saving her life. There is then one final matter the Milletian considers: who to return the paper shuriken to?
