Chief maid of the royal family of Valhalla, the planet Valkyrie original comes from; Sanada, a catgirl, is a faithful and very loyal servant. Upon learning of the princess&rsquo;s disappearance she tracked her down to Kazuto&#039;s house where she settled at once considering Kazuto to be Valkyrie&#039;s official fianc&eacute;. Even seeing how Valkyrie becomes a smaller version of herself doesn&#039;t seem to trouble Sanada at all as she finds the smaller Valkyrie to be very cute. In fact, Rika describes her as a &#039;Valkyrie fundamentalist&#039;. In order to ensure her main goal of keeping Valkyrie safe, she sometimes causes more trouble then good. One of these instances is when she uses her &quot;Cat Ear Gun&quot; (Nekomata, or Cat-Girl Ray Gun in the English version) to turn half of the city&#039;s girls into an army of brainwashed catgirl maids for the crime of just being near Kazuto. In later episodes, these maids are summoned to aid her by a whistle. (When not serving her, they act pretty much like normal, but wearing maid outfits... and Sanada never sees fit to remove their brainwashing, vexing some fans.) During the third series, Sanada takes on a kind of &#039;superhero identity&#039; to help Valkyrie and Kazuto.

UFO Princess Warukyure, aka UFO Princess Walkyrie is about a princess from outer space who accidentally crashes on earth, where Kazuto desperately tries to maintain the public bath of his grandfather. Due to circumstances, Kazuto receives part of princess Walkyrie's soul which forces her to stay there with him. But that's not the only problem ... because her soul lost strength, the princess transforms both mentally and physically into a little kid!

The queen of planet Valhalla arrives on Earth with a virtual-world-program, called "bride training boot camp". They built several pairs which have to take a random card with a special situation that might occur if you are married. For instance Kazuto and Valkyrie have to make dinner, Raine and Kazuto's sister have to manage poverty or Akina and Hydra have to prepare a wedding ceremony as bride and groom (so everyone gets the most unlikely and unsuitable situation).

A spaceship lands on a bathhouse which belongs to Kazuto's family. Inside is Princess Warukure (Valkyrie) who gives part of her soul to Kazuto to save him from death (caused by her crash). 
Since she only has half of her soul, she turns into her child self. Now Kazuto and company must figure out how to fix the bathhouse and change Warukure back to normal.
