Mao Onigawara of the Ground Defense Force!

I will protect the peace of Japan!

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.

American Defense Force Girl.

The Xth of O.

In order to receive a support mecha developed by the Defense Force of Japan,

an American Defense Force member has come to Japan.

I'm special envoy Carol Cameron. Very nice to meet you.

She's so beautiful!

She's huge...

It's an honor to meet a young Defense Force member from America.

You guys are the Defense Forces, aren't you?

You're the little heroes who protect Japan from the cute aliens!

Oh, gosh!

You're so adorable!

Smooch!

Mao-chan!

Smooch!

Smooch!

O-Oh, my goodness...

That's an American for you... She's so sophisticated.

Oh, my.

- Smooch... - Smooch...

What are you doing?

Um...

Nothing.

I'm perfectly normal.

Oh, it's wonderful!

That's an elaborate piece of work that I poured my heart into.

Wow!

That's amazing!

It certainly is!

It's got such superb power!

Japanese technology is the best in the world!

H-Hey, cut that out.

Toku-san!

I'm too jealous for words!

Did you say something?

- No, nothing. - No, nothing.

I'm perfectly normal.

The Chief of Staff is moonstruck by Special Envoy Carol...

Darn it...

Good morning, class--

Good morning!

Why are you--?!

I'm observing the class!

Then why aren't you going to junior high or high school instead of elementary school?

I'm eight years old.

You're joking!

Who can answer--

Here, ma'am!

She's so amazing!

In America, everything is big!

That thing is huge...

Lightning attack!

Miss Carol, awesome!

We're the same age, so call me Carol.

Okay, then, Carol-chan.

She's got such an outgoing personality...

She certainly does...

Attention, all Defense Forces members.

Kiku Ichimonji the Third has detected a cute alien.

Where is it?

It's right next to you!

Why has a cute alien shown up at school?

What's its objective?

We have to defend!

We certainly do!

This is the moment I've been waiting for!

I'll use the power of the new gear...

...and try it out on the cute alien!

- Carol-chan! - Carol-yan!

You can't do that!

Feel the force of the completely unmatched power of America!

No!

Lightning...

...Attack!

It... It's so cute!

- Carol-chan! - Carol-chan!

Carol-yan!

Oh, you can do whatever you want!

The cute alien's target was Carol's new gear!

It's just the thing to stir a fanboy's fancy.

Carol-chan is being taken away!

We have to defend... We have to defend Carol-chan!

Mao Onigawara of the Ground Defense Force!

Misora Tsukishima of the Air Defense Force!

Sylvia Maruyama of the Sea Defense Force!

Together, the three of us are the Unified Defense Forces!

The peace of Japan...

...will be...

...protected by us, so rest easy.

While we were saying all that, the alien's gotten really far away!

It's no use! We can't catch up with him!

We can't beat a ball! We're no match for a rolling ball!

Carol-chan...

Mao-chan!

Mao-chan, don't worry about me! Just defeat the alien!

I can't do that!

Why not?!

The Defense Forces defend!

We defend Japan from the cute aliens...

And we'll defend Carol-chan!

Defend...

That's right! We don't defeat, we defend!

Wh-What's going on?! What's happening?!

- Mao-chan! - Mao-yan!

That light, it's--

The Light of Kusanagi!

Carol-chan!

- Mao-chan! - Oh, wow...

Mao-chan!

Mao-chan!

Mao-chan!

Mao-yan!

Mao-chan!

Carol-chan!

I understand now!

It's much more wonderful to rescue and defend you when you're in trouble, Mao-chan,

than it is to defeat the cute alien!

Carol-chan...

Mao-yan!

Mao-chan!

Time to defend!

Right!

Form up! United Defense Forces!

Defense Barrier...

..deployment authorization...

...accepted!

Defense Barrier... engage!

Here goes!

Here we go!

Barrier Beam, engage!

Reflection Barrier, engage!

Restriction Barrier, engage!

Complete!

Defense Barrier!

Unified Defense!

Mao-chan...

This is... defense.

Goodbye!

This new gear is wonderful, all right.

But I've learned something greater.

And that is the defense spirit of Mao-chan and the girls.

I hope we get the chance to play together again, Mao-chan.

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.

Miss Kagome is gonna have an arranged marriage meeting!

With the Chief of Staff?!

His name is Ichiro Suteki.

What an obvious name.

This is a happy day, Miss Kagome!

It's not happy at all!

The next episode is "Let's Defend Happiness".

Next week we'll see a yuru-yuru arranged marriage meeting!
