This OAV begins with a tag-team battle between the elegant girls of Dream Team and the heavy-face-painted women of Foxy Ladies. Naturally, the Dream Team gets the crap kicked out of them, but not before one of them makes one strong attempt at lifting the 250-pound Foxy lady over her head. The ones to take their place are Eri and Miki of the Wanna-Be's team. Miki and Eri are both just fun girls who want to have fun, but once they begin their new training with the mysterious Kidou Corporation, the same corporation that trained the Dream Team, they discover that there is something deeper behind their training.

Where it came from
Wanna-Be's was released in 1986 as an early foray into the original video animation, or OVA, market during the mid-eighties boom in Japanese animation. Produced by AIC, a studio known for its experimental and ambitious projects during this era, the title served as a stylistic bridge between the polished aesthetics of theatrical anime and the direct-to-video creative freedom that defined the decade.
The visual direction reflects the energetic, music-driven sensibilities of the time, focusing on themes of ambition and the burgeoning idol culture. While it remains a niche entry within the AIC filmography, it is often studied by enthusiasts for its representation of the mid-eighties OVA production style, which favored character-driven narratives over the long-form storytelling required by television series.
