Kagome Mishima of the Ground Defense Force!

The defense of Japan depends on my strategies!

Ground Defense Force Mao-chan

Neverending everyday life...

...is always waiting for you in this town.

Instead of being hurt and troubled all alone,

try telling me what's in your heart.

I want to wrap you up...

...with infinite love,

with a strong heart,

and with deep affection.

All my love, you're my love...

I'll win the goddess of victory over to my side.

All my life, you're my life...

I'll go on loving you...

...no matter what happens.

I'll stand by you forever.

"Headquarters of the Defense Forces in Imminent Danger"!

The Xth of O.

It happened on a day when Ground, Sea, and Air Chiefs of Staff were away at a meeting.

Yes, it was a battle for the very survival of Defense Force headquarters...

A present for Private Onigawara, huh?

No return address?

I have no choice. I hate to do it, but I need to check the contents.

Here we go...

It's... It's...

It's so cute!

Ground Defense Force, a cute alien has appeared at gate 8.

It's currently moving towards the central area via corridor 32.

Could you verify the current status?

What's the situation?

Ma'am. The cute alien seems to have infiltrated the base...

...in the form of a gift package to Private Onigawara.

It is now moving toward the central area via corridor 32.

Drop all bulkheads between corridor 32 and the central area!

Yes, ma'am.

Emergency closure of all bulkheads between 32 and 48!

The bulkheads are closed.

Next, make a request for deployment of security squads 1 through 8.

A-Are you sure?

What about the bill that says that cute aliens...

...can only be dealt with by cute Defense Force members?!

This is Defense Forces HQ.

This is an emergency, so we don't have much choice.

Hurry!

R-Roger!

Security squads 1 through 8, prepare for intercept at the mouth of corridor 33.

Your target is a cute alien.

Exercise extreme caution against its cuteness.

Colonel, you should contact Mao-chan and the girls...

Yes, I know.

Private Onigawara, this is Colonel Mishima calling from Defense Forces headquarters.

Please respond!

Private Onigawara, please respond!

Private Onigawara!

There's no answer! What are you doing, Mao-chan?

Operations Room!

T-This is Aizawa of the Maintenance Squad calling from corridor 32!

I've just made visual contact with the cute alien!

Its cuteness defies description!

It's so--

We've been cut off.

Could the enemy possibly be that cute?

Private Onigawara! Where?! Where are you?

I have to keep them under surveillance without attracting attention...

Without attracting attention...

President, you're attracting plenty of attention.

You think so?

Colonel Mishima, Security teams 2 and 4...

...are making contact with the target in corridor 33.

Commence attack!

This is the Operations Room.

Once you have target confirmation, commence attack.

Security teams have target confirmation!

Now engaging in combat!

Now!

Now is the time to defend!

That sure was fun, wasn't it?

It certainly was.

I had those boys at the pool totally bewitched.

What's "bewitched" mean?

I don't know, either.

To tell you the truth, I don't know, either.

Security teams 2 and 4 have gone silent!

Everyone is swooning!

Target has now passed corridor 33!

It bewitched those hard-boiled security officers... What an alien!

Raise bulkhead B173! We'll lure the target in!

That's sure an exciting way to slack off...

I don't think that's what he's doing.

Mao-chan! Sylvie-chan!

I can't get into Defense Forces headquarters!

That could be a problem.

Target is moving away from corridor 34 towards corridor 43!

Disengage security lock! Closing bulkhead B173!

Target lockdown complete.

This will let us tide us over for now.

Now we just need Mao-chan and the girls to come back.

Yep, all's well that ends well.

It is too early to relax.

We need to warn all HQ personnel not to watch any live monitor feeds of the target.

M-Mayumi!

I-It's so cute...!

- You saw footage of it! - Mayu-mayu!

I can't help myself...

It's too cute... I can't leave it locked up.

Don't, Mayumi!

- Stop it! - Mayu-mayu!

I won't!

Mayu-mayu!

Bulkhead B173, it's--

What have you done?!

Target has resumed movement!

Bulkhead B189 has been melted, presumably due to physical attack by the target!

At its current speed--

In just two more blocks, it'll reach headquarters' generator room...

What should I do... What should I...

Good morning!

Girls! How did you get in here? We are on full emergency alert!

We found a secret escape hole back when we were exploring headquarters.

Right?

It certainly is!

I was the one who found it.

Oh, my... You came in through that?

Our defense system is so pathetic...

Wait, there's something more important!

To you elementary school Defense Force members,

I hereby issue a special dispatch order!

I-I'm not really sure what this is about, but...

Roger, ma'am.

I'm not sure I like the sound of this...

That's an order!

U-Understood, ma'am.

Mao Onigawara of the Ground Defense Force!

Misora Tsukishima of the Air Defense Force!

Sylvia Maruyama of the Sea Defense Force!

Together, we three are the Unified Defense Force!

The peace of Japan...

...will be...

...protected by us, so you can relax.

Attention, all Unified Defense Force members.

After mounting your special equipment,

proceed with your defense operation to protect Defense Force Headquarters!

Roger!

So, what's this "special equipment"?

I-I can't see anything...

This is an awesome game...

Everything is pitch black!

Stand by until you're given instructions.

Understood...

Positioning of Defense Force members is complete!

The target is moving at a constant speed.

T minus 30 until it reaches the operation's starting point!

This time, we will defend against it!

We have a problem! Mao-chan and the girls are stumbling around!

I can't see...

I can't see a thing...

Our inner eye!

We have to open our mind's eye...

Target has slipped past Mao-chan and the girls!

We're doomed!

Defense Forces Headquarters is done for!

Target has stopped!

What do you mean? Put it on the screen!

W-What in the world?

What in the world has happened here?!

I-It's so cute!

They run past us in fast-forward,

this brand-new everyday.

Smiling, calm and composed,

I handle trouble lightly and quickly.

Even when tears go straight to my heart.

Let's throw a peace sign into the blue sky...

...and fight for our future.

Never give up, never look back.

That's my style.

Let's do our best again tomorrow with high spirits...

...until we reach our dreams.

A new Defense Forces weapon used to find cute aliens is born!

His name is "Kiku Ichimonji the Third". His nickname is "Kiku-chan"!

In the next episode "Kiku Ichimonji the Third" debuts!

Next week, it'll be all adorably yuru-yuru!
