Robot Girls NEO is a 3-episode anime short series produced by Toei Animation, serving as a sequel to Robot Girls Z. The series debuted on August 18, 2018, on the "Animax on Playstation" streaming platform. It is set in Nerima, which is in ruins after a Photonic Energy disaster, although the details surrounding the event are sparse. The Photon Research Facility Tower is all that is left of the laboratory, now standing as a monument. A new pair of robot girls, Z-chan and Gre-chan (not to be confused with the original Robot Girls Team Z), live in the Shutter District spreading from the base of the tower, with a home built from salvaged materials dubbed the Photon House. The advanced photonic energy that once flowed through the town has been replaced by Getter Rays raining down from space. But Z-chan and Gre-chan still use Photonic Energy to power their home. Robot Girls Z, the predecessor to NEO, was a 2014 TV anime series produced by Toei Animation, featuring the main robots from Toei's robot anime series, such as Mazinger Z, anthropomorphized into cute girls. The series is set in "Hikari Power Town of Oizumi Gakuen, Nerima Ward", which is modeled after the Oizumi district of Nerima Ward, Tokyo, near the headquarters of Toei Animation.
