Keroro
Gunso anime synopsis
/
summary:
Keroro Gunso, translated as Sergeant
Frog, is a comedy anime series about a group of frog-like aliens and
their various oddball attempts at conquering Earth. Sergeant Keroro was
given command by his superiors to lead a Keron expedition to conquer
Earth (known as Pekopon by aliens). Because is relatively primitive
compared to rest of the galaxy, the Keroro Platoon only consisted of
five members. Sergeant Keroro is the leader, Private 2nd Class Tamama
is his loyal suboordinate, Corporal Giroro is the combat specialist,
Sergeant Major Kururu the tech whiz, and Lance Corporal Dororo the
ninja assassin.
From the start, Keroro’s mission was a disaster.
His team gets separated and crash lands on Earth. Keroro blows his
cover to the Hinata family and is ‘captured’ by
them. Koyuki Hinata manages to take Keroro’s secret weapon,
the Keroro Ball, away from Keroro and keeps it for safe keeping in his
room; he effectively stops the invasion of Earth singlehandedly. But
despite his failure, Keroro seems quite happy in his current situation.
He starts doing the house chores in exchange for an allowance so he can
buy more gunpla (Gundam models).
When Keroro’s Platoon finally reunites, he renews
his efforts to conquer Earth and reverse the tables on the Hinata
family. At least, he tries to. Most of time Keroro prefers to just
build his precious Gundam models and surf the internet. Also,
Keroro’s plans are usually absurd, and Fuyuki’s
sister Natsumi is often there to foil his efforts. Keroro must also
deal with the horrifying fact that if he succeeds in conquering Earth,
there might not be anymore Gundam models for him to build.
