Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 12-episode Comedy Anime about a group of singers shooting for the moon, literally. Michael Hanagata, manager of Mix Juice, an Idol group trying to make it big, strikes a deal with Teen Genius Susumu Tsukumo, who believes that man has never actually landed on the moon. He plans to change all that with his eco-friendly experiments, using Mix Juice as his pilots. Once on the moon, Mix Juice will give a concert, a publicity stunt that will rocket the girls to stardom! Or that's the plan, anyway. More often than not, Susumu's experiments (dubbed "Wandabas") end up being derailed by a minor detail, when the girls don't cause them to fail with their squabbling.Things get messy in the second half, when Susumu's mother arrives on the scene and challenges her son to see which of them can get to the moon first.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Mix Juice consists of: Himawari Natsuwa: An Enka singer. Yuri Fuyude: A Rock singer. Ayame Akimo: A Folk singer. Sakura Haruno: A Nursery singer. | |

Scenery Censor: In the second episode. Kiku#8 is recharging her battery, but since she runs on solar power, and her "skin" is actual solar cells, she spends the scene naked, with Hanagata making efforts to keep the camera from seeing her naughty bits, mostly with his afro. | |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? | |
| Wandaba Style / int_5beef860 | comment |
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Sakura, Himawari, and Yuri all have phobias that make traveling in space difficult: Yuri is afraid of heights, Sakura can't stand being in the dark, and Himawari worries about running out of air. These were only touched on in a couple of episodes, though. | |

Moon-Landing Hoax | |
| Wandaba Style / int_6fba77ef | comment |
Moon-Landing Hoax: Susumu Tsukumo adamantly believes that the 1969 moon landing was fake (despite the fact that it's the near future by this point in the story so even if it was, doesn't mean humans haven't been there since then. But the story doesn't dwell on that), and is thus trying to get a rocket there himself (using environmentally safe methods). This likewise is the focus of the 7th episode when Susumu's mother apparently sends Micheal to the moon. But it's just a stage set and the "ship" he was on was a training plane that entered low gravity to simulate weightlessness. However it turns out it was a trap by Susumu's mother to lure him to the location and make it seem like he had staged it. | |

| Wandaba Style / int_a58e5ad7 | comment |
Naked People Are Funny: When Mix Juice try to perform at their first gig, they end up getting into a fight over the microphone before they even start singing and up up pulling each other clothes off in the scuffle, rendering them completely naked. After which they sheepishly exit the stage. Kiku 8's introduction to Micheal and Mix Juice is this due to the fact she re-entered Earth on a ship that broke apart in re-entry. Leaving her exposed and her clothes burning off before crashing back into the ocean. | |
