Plot Summary: Takako is bullied by her class mates - they call her "tako" (octopus), beat her, humiliate her and generally make her life hell. But when they push her into the pool and force her to eat an octopus she becomes...Octopus Girl. Takako soon takes violent revenge on her former persecutors before taking to the sea, befriending an eel girl and embarking on a series of (always) bizarre and (usually) bloody episodic adventures.
