Ground Defense Force! Mao-chan

Synopsis

In "Ground Defense Force! Mao-chan," Mao Onigawara is a lively eight-year-old elementary school student and the granddaughter of the Ground Defense Force Chief of Staff. She possesses a clover-shaped badge that allows her to transform, though it grants no actual superpowers. Along with her closest friends—the granddaughters of the Air Defense Force and Marine Defense Force Chiefs of Staff—Mao works to protect Japan from an invasion of "cute aliens." These extraterrestrial intruders are so adorable that conventional military strategies are useless against them.
