Impression: This is about a so-called elite 5-man team of invading frog aliens that were tasked with taking over the earth. On their descent to earth, the team gets split up and their captain takes refuge in the house of the Hinata family. Fuyuki Hinata is an occult maniac and his sister Natsumi hates anything strange so when he accidentally finds Sergeant Keroro hiding inside his room hilarity ensues. The team members slowly come together and each one has their own “partner” human character. Each of the characters are unique in their own ways and they’re a lot of fun to watch. Keroro himself is an irresponsible leader who prefers to spend his time on silly schemes and building gunpla and his team consists of a military maniac, a childish yandere, an amoral scientist and an assassin who is siding with the earth. It’s a lot of fun to read and scanlations recently turned up on the net so I really recommend that you check it out.
