Characters
Dandy — Dandy is a human male who works as an alien hunter. His age is unclear, but he is most likely in his late 20s. He does not care about little things, and believes that his dream is somewhere in the world.

Meow — Meow is a dimwit alien. Contrary to expectations, he's not a genetically advanced cat, but he's actually an alien that lives on the star Betelgeuse. Meow is very carefree, as if he were raised with no constraints. He already knows how to use a cellphone.

QT — QT is a vacuum cleaner robot. QT says that he is high-power, but he's actually just a bucket of bolts. He's very serious and his pride is a little big. He likes tidiness.
