The story revolves around a new team of "Toei robot girls" named "Team Z" that is made up of three girls based on Toei's Mazinger Z franchise: Mazinger Z, Great Mazinger, and UFO Robot Grendizer. Usually they perform in activities around Nerima ward in Tokyo to raise the awareness of the promising future energy source "Photon Power" (koushiryoku). However, there are times when "Mechanical Beast" team of girls emerge from the "Subterranean Empire" and attempt to steal the energy. Thus "Team Z" has to battle them to prevent this, though sometimes they just go and beat up the "bad girls" to relieve stress.

Where it came from
Robot Girls Z was produced by Toei Animation and aired in 2014 as a comedic, anthropomorphic reimagining of the studio's classic mecha heritage. The series was designed to breathe new life into legacy properties—specifically Mazinger Z, Great Mazinger, and UFO Robot Grendizer—by reframing iconic super robots as cute, bickering high school girls in an urban setting. This project was part of a broader industry trend of 'moe' characterization applied to historical anime franchises, serving as both a lighthearted homage and a meta-commentary on the evolution of mecha tropes over several decades.
The character designs were handled by Tetsuya Kawakami, who sought to translate the rigid, metallic aesthetic of Go Nagai’s original mecha designs into distinct, expressive anime archetypes. By focusing on the chaotic interpersonal dynamics of the main trio, the series aimed to appeal to both long-time fans of the original Super Robot genre and contemporary viewers of character-driven comedy. Upon its release, it was received as a niche, experimental spin-off that successfully highlighted Toei’s deep catalog through a satirical and distinctly modern lens.
