Cat Planet Cuties

- Season 1

(2010)

The episode starts with three members of different factions listening to a special newscast about an alien message, the first part of which has been translated to mean "coming to play". One of the members is then called to battle aboard an enemy ship. She successfully infiltrates the ship and disarms the Captain. The situation is disrupted by a UFO passing too close to both ships. When the same member comes to, the enemy captain detonates the ship. Later, during a memorial service for one of his ancestors, Kio Kakuzu finds a cat-like alien sitting at the buffet table.

Manami and Aoi watch Kio and Elis, both waiting for a good time to make their move. As they are waiting, however, Itokazu and "Beautiful Contact" jump Kio and Elis, and are about to kill both of them when Aoi disobeys orders to wait and saves Kio. She then moves to kill Elis, but Kio begs the Momiji (not knowing it is Aoi) to spare her. She obliges, but as soon as she leaves, Manami appears with CIA back-up, knocks Kio out and captures Elis, but not before Kio sees Manami's watch and knows it is her. Later, Kio confronts Manami and begs her to help him find Elis. ...

Labeled traitors by their former organizations, Manami and Aoi take refuge in the new embassy of Catia - Kio's house! The girls discover they aren't out of hot water just yet, though, when an intruder attempts a bath time raid!

Kio and the girls head to Tokyo for a day of shopping. Unfortunately, their trip is derailed when a kitty-loving cult attacks their train. With Kio and Eris in danger, Manami, Aoi, and the Assistroids begin planning a rescue.

Aoi and Manami undertake a high seas raid to free Kio and Eris from Antonia's lavish - and heavily armed - yacht. The battle is intense, and Aoi is left unconscious in the belly of the ship. Can Kio get to her before the vessel sinks?

Aoi's frustrated by her lack of cooking ability and Manami wants to get better at handling guns. They get a chance to hone their skills in a virtual reality room on the Catian mothership - and both get to spend time with a virtual Kio.

Summer's over, class is back in session, and Kio is surprised to see that Eris and Antonia have enrolled at his school. When the gang goes on a field trip to the beach, they soon find their fun interrupted by an enemy attack!

Aoi challenges Manami to step up her training, so the girls head into the woods for a one-on-one war game. Little do they know, as each stalks the other through the forest, a hidden threat is taking aim at them both.

After traveling through space for many years, Lawry, the first Assistroid ever created, visits Earth. Kio is taken back by her human-like appearance, and Eris explains the surprising history shared by the Catians and the Assistroids.

The Christmas season is here and the Catians get caught up in the spirit of giving. Captain Kune arrives on Earth with a gift for Kio, but the festivities grind to a halt thanks to a well-executed Dogishuan attack!

The Catian mothership is plummeting toward Earth! With Captain Kune's bell in his possession, Kio takes command of the feline forces, and the gang races off to Russia to build a rocket and avert disaster!

The gang rockets into orbit to prevent catastrophe! As a battle rages above Earth, Kio tries to shut down the plummeting mothership's computer. When he learns that only a Catian can issue the order, he makes a surprising move!

Eris is interested in learning more about the games enjoyed on Earth, so the gang spends the day playing several different kinds. Manami raises the stakes by suggesting some serious prizes, some of which prove to be quite incriminating!
