Having been torn from the earth in ancient times, Planet Mamango is now re-approaching the earth after a lapse of 5 million years. One night, a private detective named Ban Shunsaku encounters a murder, and meets boy researcher Shikishima Kenichi, who holds the key to solving the case. Shikishima discovers that a stone from the Planet Mamango generates huge amounts of energy. Making a rocket out of the energy stone, Shikishima sets up an exploration team and departs for Planet Mamango. The rocket heads straight for Planet Mamango under the command of Shikishima, along with Captain Butamo Makeru, Ayame and Momiji, who are cabbages created by the captain, a rabbit named Mii, and Ban Shunsaku. In due time, the rocket lands on the Planet Mamango, where the group finds a “The Lost World,” an ancient environment where dinosaurs walk about and ferns and cycads cover the ground.

He remade the series once again in 1955 for Bouken Ou under the title "Zenseiki Hoshi", but this version too has been lost.

Takagi and Kanemura are two normal high school students in a near-future Japan where many things we'd find unusual are taken in stride. Technology has evolved to the point where items like face-blurring necklaces, sleep-control devices, and Willy Wonka-ish, meal-flavored gum are common fads. New services also dot the landscape, such as businesses that can help you reclaim memories and places that can upload dead people to the internet to continue living their lives in virtual reality. The two girls treat encounters with androids, strange monsters, and aliens as somewhat normal occurrences. Dainana Joshikai Houkou is a fantastical slice of futuristic life that proves that, while society can change, people tend to stay the same.
