Title (English) Ground Defense Force Mao-chan

Title (Japanese) Ground Defense Force Mao-chan

Advertising
Fantasy Novel

Notes 12 mins per episode.

Classification -

Synopsis Mao-chan is one of three 8-year old girls who are part of Japan's defence against "cute aliens". (The other two are for air and sea defence.) In the first 12-minute episode, a cute giant cat alien parachutes down and confuses the defense by bouncing back into the air and then dropping into the sea.

Review Cute but silly, with Mao-chan's tank taking no part in the action. The trio speak in squeaky voices with affected verb endings. I don't think I could have suffered more than 12 minutes of this. Evidently aimed at 8-year olds.
BTW, couldn't help noticing that in the second or so where we see the tank approaching, the treads are correctly animated.
