Japan, the weirdest country in the world, is about to get a lot weirder. American businessman Alexander Peliman is trapped in Tokyo, a neon city where anti-gravity shoes are the hottest fashion accessory and pornographic sashimi is the newest delicacy. Meanwhile, Kambei Hirotashi, the world's greatest and most powerful inventor, prepares to launch Japan into outer space and conquer the galaxy. But when Alexander stumbles upon his secret plans, the inventor enlists the service of his Sanrio assassins, who will stop at nothing to see the American dead. Now Alexander and a manga-eyed girl must team up and fight their way through Hello Kitty hit men, a shark-headed secret agent, a retirement home for giant monsters, and an armada of gigantic bioengineered invertebrates before Japan lifts off into outer space. Will Alexander escape from Tokyo alive or will he live the rest of his days with the electric eel in his hotel room, stranded in space as JAPAN CONQUERS THE GALAXY.
