Summary
The Gorga Empire, a species of gargoyle‑like aliens equipped with detachable antennae that can be wielded as whips, destroys the home planet of the Zone clan. The surviving members of the Zone people escape to Earth, adopting human identities and disguises. Their refuge proves temporary, as Earth becomes the next target in the Gorga campaign for universal conquest.
The Zone refugees, Hikaru (Aoyama), Hotaru (Kitahara), and Akira (Sato), use their extra-terrestrial abilities to transform into Zone Fighter, Zone Angel, and Zone Junior, defending their adopted world from the weekly Terro‑Beasts deployed by the Gorga in capsule form. When a Terro‑Beast’s strength exceeds the trio’s combined abilities, Hikaru is compelled to assume a giant form, enabling him to confront the creature on equal terms.
