Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for fans of a well-timed joke and sci-fi fans. Popcorn viewing in the best sense. If you loved Everything Everywhere All at Once or Alita: Battle Angel, start here.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Lean, with little time wasted, at 16 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.

Nanami, Jasmine and Houka, who once fought to bring peace to the world, are now happily married and with children. However, the evil that threatens humanity is immortal, and now they must face a daily struggle to balance their fight as "heroes" and their duty as "mamas". It is their goal to succeed at that struggle and to keep the world safe, becoming the brightest of "glittering mamas". The three thought of the plan to make it happen whilst at a café, but at the same time, Space Shinobu Demost's terrifying plan to invade the Earth moves into action!
