ABOUT MILPOM★
The story takes place in a certain ordinary town where it is natural for everyone to wear an
animal costume head. It depicts the everyday life of the main character MILPOM★ and her
friends who live there, filled with the essence of Kawaii and these just-a-little-bit cynical girls.
In the first episode, MILPOM, SILKY, and CACAO chat about costumes for Halloween party,
which turns into an explosive girl talk!
