Papillon Rose (パピヨンローゼ, Papiyon Rōze) is an erotic comedy anime series which parodies the magical girl genre, particularly Sailor Moon and Cutie Honey.
But the Earth, specifically the Tokyo otaku district of Akiba, is under attack by a trio of powerful alien women along with their minions.
The opening animation features Tsubomi and the others working at the cafe as well as them transitioning to and performing in their Papillon forms.
Also included in the animation are three live female cosplay characters in Papillon costumes posing stop-action in the lower right corner of the frame.
The OVA and TV series use the same music for the opening and ending animation and credits in the North American releases.
