Everything in [] is my comment. This is an unedited version and plenty of typographic and grammatical errors are expected. Corrections and questions are welcomed.

A spaceship with a girl is drifting towards Earth. Voices of a man and a woman tell her to live in peace for their sake.

At a park near a port, a man is making an overdramatic (and silly) proposal to his girlfriend. A girl near them recognises him. Hearing her, he has to proclaim his name, a temporary lecturer of Kamihama Institute Of Agricultural Technology and a mad scientist, Amagi Kouichi ^_^;; Then he and his girlfriend, Miki, continue to indulge in their own world. He vows his love to a star which turns out to be approaching towards them.

Years later, one morning Amagi Hikaru [voiced by Iwao Junko, Key], wakes up as usual... or refuses to wake up as usual. Having failed to wake her up, her alarm clock (an invention of her father) resorts to a suicidal attack. This 16 years old loves anything cute and a TV hero, Rock'n Dorger. She may lack in her height as well as her breasts [^_^;; this is probably a hidden joke to emphasise her transformation] but is a happy girl with good friends and parents. Yes, she is the girl in the spaceship and the couple adopted her. She is a good girl. But her mother worries she may be late for school *again*. Her father, however, replies by smiling knowingly.

On her way to school, Hikaru finds her best friend Haruna waiting for her. Haruna is a model student of their class but a fanatic follower of an idol, too. Looking at Hikaru's new racket, Haruna teases her about her club's senior, Narasaki, whom Hikaru is one-sidedly in love with. The bell of school rings to notify it is 5 minutes prior to the beginning, Hikaru's bag activates itself into "anti-being-late-for-school mode" ^_^;; It is not unusual for her and her unfortunately friend to find themselves to be a victim of Hikaru's father's new inventions. But this time they get Narasaki to share their fate.

Two generals, Peorth & Shigel, are looking down at Earth. They are in search of a legendary weapon, Royal Armour. Peorth thinks it is an easy job while Shigel is more cautious. At least, it does not seem they get along with each other very well. Peorth does not give Shigel the full information and orders Garbage to find the weapon before Shigel. Of course, Shigel knows Peorth's plot.

In Hikaru's room a small statue senses the danger approaching.

Garbage comes to Hikaru's school when she is busy admiring Narasaki. Haruna sneaks in to surprise her but failed as a mysterious voice calls Hikaru. She asks Hikaru if she wants to go to Kamihama Land with her tomorrow. Hikaru is not keen to join her because it will be with Haruna's boyfriend, Tasaka. But, having heard Tasaka has managed to persuade Narasaki to come, Hikaru has no choice. Now Garbage is ready to attack but Hikaru's racket, another invention of her father, senses her danger and activate its defense system.

In her dream the mysterious voice tells that unfortunately "they" have come to Earth and she must fight for Earth and the universe.

In the Kamihama Park (BTW, Tokyo Disneyland locates in Maihama), Haruna plots so that Hikaru and Narahashi become alone. To Hikaru's surprise, Narahashi does not mind the situation and she is wrapped in her ultimate happiness.

Garbage attacks Hikaru when she enters a mirror house. He impresses her very much, who thinks it's only special effect and even his sweat drop is really cute to her. Garbage blows her up, who is safely caught by Rock'n Dorger. But not surprisingly, a TV hero is no match for a real monster like Garbage, who thinks Haruna must be the "successor" because Hikaru is too weak. Now even Hikaru realises it is not a show. Shigel, watching this, is not happy. She thinks Garbage's tactics is ungraceful.

Narasaki, who tried to save her, is unconscious, which is enough to trigger Hikaru's anger. The voice comes in again and tells her to transform into Gran Doll. She battles well but Garbage is no lame duck. When his missiles are harassing her, the armour tells her to look back at Narasaki (it seems the armour's power is proportional to the will of the wearer to protect someone). Somehow now Hikaru *knows* how to beat Garbage. Her devastating attack, Shining Breasts [^o^;;;], does the job easily.

After transforming Hikaru back to an ordinary girl, the armour introduces him as Gran Knight but does not reveal too much. He vanishes into the sky.

Back at home, Hikaru wonders what in the world the armour is. But her concern is nothing, to the disgust of the statue, before the wonderful date with Narasaki. She concludes "The day was wonderful on the whole" in her diary, which flies to report to her father.
