Synopsis:

Milk-chan exists in a world playfully mirroring the style of 1970s spy films. The series follows Milk-chan, a resourceful young woman living with an unconventional household: a paranoid, bottle-shaped robot named Tetsu-ko and a mustachioed green blob called Hanage. Struggling with mounting debts, Milk-chan unexpectedly receives employment from a mysterious "President," embarking on clandestine missions aboard the helicopter "Milk-6."

The narrative unfolds with a lighthearted tone, blending elements of espionage and comedic situations. Each mission presents unique challenges for Milk-chan and her companions as they navigate unusual circumstances. The show emphasizes quirky character dynamics and a satirical take on classic action tropes, offering a uniquely whimsical experience reminiscent of retro adventure stories but with a distinctly modern sensibility.
