How it feels

A platoon of frog-like aliens from another galaxy tries to take over Earth but ends up living with a human family. The lead alien, Sergeant Keroro, is more interested in video games and anime than conquest. The show follows their daily adventures and mishaps parodying sci-fi and pop culture.
