Information: In a small town of Tokyo there lives a middle-aged man, Suzuki, who spends normal days conducting a small business. One day he happens to discover a mysterious entrance that leads to an alien space. Through it he reaches a world of goblins and attaches control devices to goblins there to make them obey his command. Capitalizing on the zombies, he grows outrageous and notoriously sets his hand to evil things. Meanwhile two witty pupils, Hajime and his girlfriend Mariko, come across a strange alien detective who presents them with Doteraman garments. Wearing those garments, they can transform themselves into Doteraman and Doterapink with supernatural strength. Then they challenge the wicked ruler to liberate the poor goblins.
