Toei Animation Studio launched a website for the Toei Robot Girls project with a weekly four-panel
manga series. The project features girls dressed as various famous robots and is used to promote various wroks in the studio's
anime catalog. The first installment of this manga is centered on three female personifications of the robots in Gaiking, Magnerobot Gakeen and Superhuman Combat Team Baratack.
In the backstory created for the project, the Toei Robot Girls Laboratory was established to protect Earth from the threat of space invasion. The laboratory gathered the data from super robots who have protected Earth in the past, and then used that research to imbue "cute girls" with their legendary powers.
