In the woods of Tokyo's Tama Hills, a group of happy civet cats live. However, due to the continuous expansion of residential areas by humans, their living places continue to decrease. Facing the crisis, the civet cats decided to revive the ancestral transformation technique to confront humans and block the housing construction plan. While working hard to carry out special training in transformation skills, they sent envoys to Shikoku and Sado to visit the raccoon elders there to request foreign aid. Although the civet cats tried their best, they still did not have any impact on human activities. The elders of the four countries finally arrived, and the monster group plan organized by foreign aid also failed. The civet cats fell into despair. Unexpectedly, they found that the residential area suddenly became green. It turns out that humans discovered this group of civet cats and created an artificial green space for them. The civet cats started a new life in the artificial landscape.

Tamasaburô, Bunta, Tanuki: [singing] Let's turn into every sacred icon we can think of. Some are this and some are that...
[They do backflips into the air and turn into various items; stone Buddhas, lucky cats, painted eggs, kitsune sculptures, gold carp sculptures, monkey sculptures and Tanuki sculptures. Ponkichi rushes to join in and tries copying them. He does various poses but is unable to transform]
Shokichi: [narrating] Back then, all I thought about was transforming. I never dreamed that my friend Ponkichi might just want to be a normal raccoon.

Gonta: [as his attempted coup d'etat and call to action devolves into a random conversation about how best to cook a mouse] WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH ALL OF YOU? I say...
[He changes into his ultra simplified form and sings]
Gonta: A mouse tempura is the best one, yes it is!
Oroku: See, Gonta? We can't fight. All we can think about is food. I think it's best if we wait for the transformation masters to get here.
Gonta: [in a gruffly rueful tone] Sorry about that.
