The series stars Yuuhi Amamiya (CV: Junya Enoki), a college student who one day wakes up to find a lizard named Noi Crezant (CV: Kenjiro Tsuda) on his bed. Noi explains that Yuuhi has been chosen as a Beast Knight, a magical warrior destined to help Princess Samidare Asahina (CV: Naomi Ōzora) defeat a Mage out to destroy the world with a giant mallet floating in space called the Biscuit Hammer. But then Samidare surprises Yuuhi by saying she wants to be the one to destroy the world instead.

The trailer also features the opening theme song Light of Dawn (Japanese: 暁光; Romaji: Gyoukou) by Half time Old. Meanwhile, the ending theme song is Reflexion by SpendyMily.
