A thirteen-year-old girl named Mei Lee is torn between staying her mother's dutiful daughter and the changes of adolescence. And as if the challenges were not enough, whenever she gets overly excited she transforms into a giant red panda. In 2002, Mei hides her personal interests from her strict mother, including her crush on a local convenience store clerk and being a fan of a boy band. One day, she wakes up transformed into a red panda and discovers that she only transforms when she is in a state of high emotion. Mei's parents explain that this transformation has been passed down through generations and that it needs to be sealed in a talisman during a ritual. Mei's friends discover her transformation and help her control it. They secretly raise money for concert tickets, exploiting Mei's red panda form. However, the concert falls on the same night as Mei's ritual. Mei decides to keep her powers and attends the concert, causing her mother to transform into a kaiju-sized red panda and disrupt the concert. Mei and her mother argue but eventually reconcile and mend their bond.
