Description: Dokkoida
In a time of economic crisis, the people cry out for a hero. What they get is Dokkoida. He is a somewhat cowardly hero that has superhuman powers and a very poorly designed costume... it looks like something out of Ultraman... with a diaper on. The suit was designed by a toy company.
Kosuzu, a member of the Galaxy Federation Police code-named Tampopo, recruits out-of-work Suzuo to fight with her on Earth. She gives him the belt that will turn him into Dokkoida. Meanwhile, the biggest rival company has their own heroine, Kurisaburo Kurionhana, who is code-named Marronflower.
The Galaxy Federation police send a host of stupid villains against Dokkoida and Tampopo. For example, one of them, Edelweiss, is a cute-but-full-of-attitude magical girl that creates monsters out of clay. Dokkoida defeats her monster with one blow.
Anyway, they go on a series of misadventures, while Suzo develops a crush on his rival, Asaka.
