When 12-year-old daydreamer Aku inherits an astronaut helmet from his dead grandmother, he gains the power to transport himself throughout the metaverse. Now, he has no choice but to become the space hero he always wanted to be.
Aku loves space. He loves playing space-themed role-playing games with his best friends, Benji and Trae, and he dreams of becoming an astronaut. Otherwise insecure--especially at school, where he's bullied--Aku is most comfortable at the local planetarium. So, when his grandmother dies and leaves him an astronaut helmet, Aku thinks it's the coolest thing ever.
...scratch that...
