Nobody remembers this one, and that's the crime. A 1997 OVA that treats its absurd premise, two emissaries chasing down a rogue warrior across space, like it actually matters, mixing earnest sci-fi spectacle with comedy timing that lands because the show doesn't wink at you. The mecha designs feel lived-in, the orphan sidekick stays functional instead of becoming a mascot, and there's a weird sincerity to watching Cacao and Parfait refuse to accept that their mission is already lost. It's a show that commits fully to its own weirdness without explaining itself. By episode three you've stopped asking why the tone works and just accepted that it does. This is what anime looked like when it was allowed to be strange without apology.

Cacao and Parfait are sent across time and space with an urgent mandate: locate the legendary Fourth Warrior, Lamunes, and prevent galactic catastrophe. What they find instead is Lamunes commanding the Giga Genos fleet as it conquers world after world, bent on ruling the entire galaxy. With help from a spirited orphan, the pair sets out to stop him. The tone bounces between real stakes and comedic chaos, mixing mecha combat, science fiction adventure and ecchi humor across six OVA episodes.
