Time for some Moe Mojo! Patty and Ruby have hit it big! Starting out working part-time in an Akihabara maid café, the two quickly skyrocketed to national fame as pop stars thanks to two magical uniforms and their friends in the A.O.N. (Akiba Otaku Network).
Life is good at the top...After topping the charts with their first release, the moelicious two-some had it made: a great career, tons of fans, and the cutest outfits a cosplayer could have.
But just before their biggest performance yet, "Moe USA" had to cancel the show when they found their trademark magical uniforms had been stolen from back-stage! !
Will the help of the A.O.N. and Taku-san, the godfather of otaku, be enough to find the girls' costumes before their fame fades?
