Plot

Himeko Tsubaki bumps into a pair of thieves called Leslie and Karen. She accidentally takes one of their bags containing a magic crown. Placing the crown on her head will magically turn her into a princess, and eventually fulfilling all of her wishes. Her classmates and teachers believe her to be a princess, but she becomes a target of various people who want the crown for themselves. Tagging along is the true owner of the crown, a child princess named Nana.

Banana often makes trouble, even stealing Leslie's underpants. * : Sobana is Himeko's best friend with this sock puppet shaped like a cat (assuming cat-like intonations in the process).
