Alien 9

In a world where extraterrestrial life is not only real but an everyday nuisance, elementary school students are tasked with the unenviable job of alien defense. Young Yuri Otani, a shy and easily frightened sixth-grader, finds herself drafted into the "Alien Party," a trio of girls whose mission is to capture and contain the various cosmic creatures that infiltrate their school. Each member is partnered with a "Borg," a sentient, symbiotic alien that provides protection and enhanced abilities, but at what cost? As Yuri and her teammates, the stoic Kasumi and the energetic Kumi, navigate the bizarre and often dangerous encounters with these otherworldly invaders, they're forced to confront the unsettling realities of their roles. The line between protector and prey blurs, and the girls soon discover that their alien partners might be more than just tools—they could be a fundamental part of a larger, more unsettling truth about their world.
