The is a fictional platoon from the anime and manga series Sgt The platoon's leader, Sergeant Keroro, is easily distracted, and would rather spend his time making plastic Gundam models and surfing the Internet than destroying Earth, much to the chagrin of the bellicose corporal, Giroro. Gundam Models refers to Plastic and non-plastic model kits depicting the Mecha, vehicles and characters of the fictional Mobile Suit Gundam universe Aside from Keroro's laziness, what most stands in the way of their mission is the Hinata Family, a trio of rather benign humans who keep Keroro busy with ridiculous demands and constant abuse, primarily from the family daughter Natsumi.

Main article: Keroro Platoon

The is a fictional platoon from the anime and manga series Sgt Gundam Models refers to Plastic and non-plastic model kits depicting the Mecha, vehicles and characters of the fictional Mobile Suit Gundam universe He and the platoon were sent to Earth to conquer it and put Keroro's face on every piece of merchandise they could find. Despite being the leader of his platoon, he does little to help and lets his subordinates do all the work. Serving Keroro without question is Private Second Class Tamama, who loves him and is portrayed as very cute, but is extremely sensitive to the point where he reverts to a violent berserker at the single buzz of a fly. He is also jealous of anyone who gets near the Sergeant. Perhaps the only sane individual in the platoon is Corporal Giroro, the group's gunman with deadly accuracy, and exceptionally good at cooking sweet potatoes. He is often frustrated with Keroro's laziness, and is disgruntled to have him as a leader. He also is in love with Natsumi, which too is starting to get in the way of the invasion. The platoon's intelligence officer^[3] and inventor, Sergeant Major Kururu, is gloomy, insidious, unpopular, and disliked by everyone, who see him as a depressing jerk. He makes most of the platoon's inventions and in spite of his malevolent nature, none of his inventions have any permanent effect. The fifth and final member is Lance Corporal Dororo, who fancies himself a ninja, and has known Keroro and Giroro since their childhood. Despite hailing from a rich family, Keroro often uses him as a meat shield, but Dororo still follows Keroro's insane orders without question. Due to these childhood abuses, Dororo falls into a deep but temporary state of depression (this is often called his "trauma switch. ") whenever he is reminded of something bad Keroro did to him in his childhood. He is often overlooked by the others, also triggering his depression.

Notable differences

The transfer from manga to anime is somewhat uneven, as some episodes strongly resemble the manga while others only borrow the basic story or even use it only as a starting point. The is a fictional platoon from the anime and manga series Sgt

"Pokopen" is a derogatory word Japanese used to describe China during the Sino-Japanese Wars, and has since been banned from TV programs by the mass communications authority in Japan.
• Whereas the manga is somewhat oriented towards teens, the anime is toned down to a level acceptable for children. For example, in the manga, when Natsumi is wearing Aki's bikini and reverts from an adult, her bikini does not, to her great embarrassment. In the anime, her bikini shrinks with her. The bigger example is the number of panty shots in the manga whereas in the anime, there aren't any.
• Keroro possesses the Kero Ball in the manga, but Fuyuki has it in the anime.
• Because Giroro, Kururu, and especially Dororo are introduced in the anime much earlier than in the manga, several storylines not featuring them at all were modified to include them.
• Because of the time difference between the Manga's start and the Anime's Start, Angol Mois's backstory is somewhat modified. Everything up to the point of Mois telling Nostradamus about her destroying the earth was true but she ended up being five years too late (2004 instead of 1999). Michel de Nostredame (14 December 1503 or 21 December 1503 &ndash 2 July 1566 usually Latinized to Nostradamus, was a French Apothecary
• In the manga version, Tamama can travel using dimensional fissures.
• Mutsumi (623) still has his radio show in the anime, but he is a student in Natsumi's class instead of a high school dropout, and his last name is Saburō (326) rather than Hojo.
• In the manga chapter LXXVI, Keroro plays a Game Boy Advance SP on Fuyuki's bed, while in the anime Keroro plays a Nintendo DS. The, released in February 2003 is an upgraded version of Nintendo 's Game Boy Advance. The is a dual-screen Handheld game console developed and manufactured by Nintendo.
• In the anime Sumomo is a hit intergalactic popstar who appears in several episodes, while in the manga she is a female 'Ahotoran' who appears in a bonus issue.
• Dororo has a trauma meter in the anime that appears frequently while in the manga there isn't one.
• In the anime, Natsumi has more liking to Mutsumi (623). In the manga, She just shows a interest.
• Dororo and Koyuki live in a house next to the Hinata's in the manga whereas in the anime they live in the woods near Momoka's estate and can see the Nishizawa tower from their home.
• Due to the anime being much farther ahead than the manga, several episodes have been added that are not in the manga.
