Four animal heroes—a cat, dog, donkey and chicken—gain human forms and spaceman abilities to battle a war‑driven threat to Earth. Inspired by the classic “Bremen Town Musicians” tale, the story echoes Osamu Tezuka’s “The Amazing Three,” where transformed warriors devote themselves to saving the planet. Together they traverse surreal settings, using their powers to dismantle the machines of conflict and restore peace.
