Miss Monochrome - The Animation

The android and idol Miss Monochrome had often dreamed in her castle of a beautiful girl's appearance. One day, Monochrome saw the super idol Kikuko's exploits on TV and consulted Mana, the girl who was earnestly assisting her with her idol activities.

Miss Monochrome suggests to Maneo that she wants to appear on a drama at the convenience store where he's employed as a manager. Maneo gets straight to business and comes back with a role where she will act like a mannequin.

Aliens come to Earth to enjoy their first human hunt in hundreds of millions of years. Right around then, Maneo and Miss Monochrome are captivated by a golden AA battery in a show window in the shopping district.

Monochrome notices a nendoroid of the super idol Kikuko in a toy shop's show window and requests a nendoroid version of herself from Maneo, but his efforts are in vain.

Maneo brings a Halloween cosplay party job to Monochrome, who is watching Super Idol Kikuko's concert airing on a TV on the street.

Miss Monochrome says she will work hard and do anything to Maneo and asks him to get her work. She does everything at her own pace, the same as ever, and angers the director at her drama shoot.

Miss Monochrome decides what she needs to become a super idol is to make her first album and go on tour. What she and Maneo actually end up doing is creating a photo album which they tour across the country.

Miss Monochrome searches for a promoter for her concert, managing to find a "pro motorer" named Yayoi, who turns out to be an employee of a small record label.

After Yayoi gets a little over excited in fulfilling Miss Monochrome's requests, they recruit fellow convenience store employee Akiko as her guitarist.

Miss Monochrome and the others think of ideas for goods to sell at her concerts.

As the group plan out the schedule for Miss Monochrome's concert, Akiko gets scouted and becomes an international superstar, with Ru replacing her as the entire band.

While praying for the success of her new album, Miss Monochrome decides she needs a DJ for her tour, finding a gas attendant to be perfect for the job.

Miss Monochrome searches for all sorts of ways to increase her visibility.
