In a distant future, the fusion of magic and technology reshaped human civilization. The Moon became the site of the "Magic Town Sorcerium," where leading specialists in both domains collaborated to generate vast prosperity through constant innovation. But this success sparked conflicts, culminating in the catastrophic "Big Magic War" between Earth and the Moon, which brought an end to a once-prosperous age. A few survivors began the task of rebuilding society. However, the use of forbidden weapons during the war—such as DNA-attackers and -changers—left permanent damage. Humanity, having lost much of its former magical and technological capability, now struggles against constant threats from monstrous creatures and other hazards. Filled with fear, people long for an end to the turmoil. Yet a power called "Heaven" has stepped in, dispatching "Angels"—girls granted extraordinary powers—to various points in history in order to restore order. This exciting story follows these warriors as they shield humanity from approaching dangers. Still, even with their aid, the persistent shadow of darkness remains. Lasty Farson, known as Angel Rabbie, is our clumsy and never-satisfied heroine. On her first mission, she arrives late but immediately dives into action upon sensing trouble. Sent from the station down to the planet, she helps a village repel a female bandit and her gang, who are stealing food and valuables. At the same time, she uncovers hints that her missing comrade, Lukia Shawl—presumed dead after her long absence—might be involved in the situation or following her own agenda.

In the year 2047, a mysterious alien life-form arrives on Earth, obliterating all major cities in a single attack.

PLANZET: the ultimate strategy, Plan Zed, for recapturing planet Earth. A final, desperate push against the enemy. Hiroshi Akishima, a soldier in the Planetary Defense Forces Alliance, yearns for a chance to strike back at the aliens who killed his father six years earlier. Yet the new offensive demands that the Diffusor be deactivated, leaving the entire planet dangerously exposed once more. Will humanity reclaim the stars or lose everything in this last, all-or-nothing gamble?

In "UFO Princess Valkyrie: Shichiten Battou Hanayome Shuugyou," the queen of Planet Valhalla comes to Earth carrying a virtual reality program named the "bride training boot camp." This system creates a variety of scenarios intended to test couples by handing out random cards that illustrate potential marital troubles. For example, Kazuto and Valkyrie must prepare a meal together, Raine and Kazuto's sister face the struggle of living in poverty, and Akina and Hydra undergo a wedding rehearsal, each taking on the parts of bride and groom. The pairs encounter a series of improbable and mismatched situations designed to measure how well they fit together.

The Maria Holic's official website put this video on its homepage on Children's Day.

Three specials of the Bakuretsu Tenshi: Infinity OVA. Containing a summary of the whole show and a short AMV.

The bizarre and enchanted occurrences from the previous season have resulted in Kazuto now having two Valkyries. He finds himself cohabitating with and caring for both a teenage princess Valkyrie and a child princess Valkyrie, while their marriage still remains unfulfilled.

The Galaxy Federation Police (GFP) secretly employs advanced mechanized power-suits to compensate for their shortage of personnel. Nineteen-year-old Suzuo, desperately searching for work, catches the attention of Tampopo, who needs a human to test her company's newest suit prototype. As a trainee hero, Suzuo must face formidable rivals and bizarre A-class criminals while keeping his identity concealed outside of costume to preserve the test's validity. Sharing an apartment with these same adversaries to cut costs, however, doesn't seem to cause much concern.

In a Japan where centuries of conflict between humans and youkai have finally subsided, these supernatural creatures are now an ordinary part of daily life. To promote coexistence, human children study alongside humanoid paranormal entities. Shingo Ohashi develops romantic feelings for Hatoko "Petoko" Fujimura, a girl of mixed human and youkai ancestry. Petoko has three distinctive abilities: an irresistibly captivating demeanor similar to a low-level succubus, a tendency to cling to anyone who makes direct skin contact until that person falls asleep, and the power to vanish at a molecular level—a skill she can usually control.

In the small American town of Frog Creek, Jack and Annie are two very different siblings. Jack loves reading and spends his time lost in books, while Annie is bold and always ready for adventure, frequently getting dirty from her explorations. One day, they discover a mysterious treehouse filled with books hidden deep in the woods. When Jack casually says he'd like to visit the age of dinosaurs after seeing a book about them, the treehouse instantly transports them millions of years back in time. Excited by the new environment, Annie enthusiastically begins exploring, whereas Jack is more cautious and worries about how they will get home. But when he finds a medallion that is clearly made by humans, it sets them on a journey that takes the siblings across different times and places.

The third season of UFO Ultramaiden Valkyrie does not follow a single overarching narrative like the second season's "Valkyrie Ghost" arc. Instead, it presents six standalone episodes that focus on the daily lives of Kazuto and his companions. New developments include Raine and Chorus moving into a house on Earth, and each of the other three Valhalla princesses receives her own spotlight episode. The season culminates in Kazuto and Valkyrie—who manages to maintain her adult form in this episode—making another attempt to get married.
