Plot
Chizuko Date has always admired her hero, Berry Blossom, a magical girl who protects Niigata City from the Evil Organization Fossa Magna, led by Chrome. However, Chrome is quite weak and is always defeated by Berry Blossom. As a result, the public found the battles boring and began to lose interest. This led Chizuko to try and bring back attention to Berry Blossom, but she was also approached by Chrome to join his organization, much to her concern.
