'Urahara' Air Date, Spoilers: Fashionable Girls Fight Off Alien Invasion in Upcoming Magical Girl Anime Series
Harajuku becomes a target for destructive aliens on the upcoming Japanese anime series, "Urahara." But three fashionable high school girls will take a stand to defend their beloved place of all that's cute and trendy.
All Rito, Mari, and Kotoko want is to be able to open a temporary store, simply called Park, in Harajuku, the place where culture, fashion, and cuteness collide. But the arrival of alien invaders known as Scoopers will spoil their plans, and it will eventually be up to them to keep the enemies at bay.
For some reason, these aliens seem to be hungry for the existing cultures on Earth, and they are, therefore, fully intent on stealing every single trace of it from Harajuku. Moreover, their arrival will also usher in the sudden appearance of a mysterious girl named Misa. Who could she be, and what significant part will she be playing in the ultimate success or defeat of the three noble defenders of Harajuku?
