Natsumi Hinata is a 7th grader at Kisshou Middle School. She lives at home with her Mama, a manga editor, and her brother Fuyuki, a grade younger than she is. Since her Mama is away nearly all the time because of her tight work schedule, she usually cooks dinner for the family and splits the chores with her brother.
Overall, she's your normal, everyday middle school girl.
Until that fateful day when an alien invader named Sergeant Keroro came to live with her in her home. Her normal life hasn't been normal since! While her slightly weird brother and her eccentric mother seem to love the frogs, Natsumi is pretty annoyed with them at all times. As more and more of them show up, her resentment towards them never wavers, until...
Giroro arrives! Giroro, right from the start, had a crush on Natsumi. And so, she treats him slightly differently. Giroro is the only one of the Keroro Platoon that Natsumi actually has a decent conversation with, without becoming annoyed or frustrated. This might be because Giroro is the only one of them that isn't bouncing off of walls all the time, sceming about the demise of Earth or causing a general ruckus. On top of that, Giroro actually takes time out of his day to talk to her [not a hard task for Giroro biggrin ]. Unfortunately, Natsumi doesn't show an obvious interest in Giroro, but she does seems to know how he feels about her.
And, well, Natsumi has feelings of her own. That's right. She seems to have a crush on a delinquent boy at her school named Mutsumi. Mutsumi, however, doesn't ever really seem to notice her or give her the time of day. He's more interested to have a chat with her brother, who's an expert on occult happenings.
Poor Natsumi...
And that's where Giroro comes in. No one in this story is quite as devoted to Natsumi as he is, and that is yet another reason why they should be together! While she outwardly acts annoyed with the frogs, I know she has a soft spot for a certain red one. biggrin
