[edit] Plot summary
In 2050, after a great earthquake, the Moon got an atmosphere and conditions for normal human life. 50 years later, the Moon is inhabitated by humans and a great tourist attraction. A boy called Daichi arrives on the Moon and hears the strange stories about people with rabbit ears. Soon he meets V-Mei, an old witch and her granddaughter Guri Guri, the members of the Long-Ears race which is in war with the evil Jado Clan who wants to conquer the world. Sensing a power in the boy, V-Mei gives the magic gun to Daichi and reveals to him that he is the chosen Madoh Warrior who will save the Long-Ears race and their land Rabiluna from the evil Jado Clan. With the magic gun, Daichi can summon Granzort – a Mado King of earth – a giant robot to fight against the monsters of the Jado Clan.
Soon, Daichi, V-Mei and Guri Guri meet two other boys – Gus and Rabi. Gus receives a magic bow that summons Windzart – a Mado King of Wind, while Rabi receives a magic top that summons Aqua-Beat – a Mado King of Water. Together, Daichi, Gus, Rabi, V-Mei and Guri Guri travel to the world of Rabiluna in order to free it from the Jado Clan.
