The protagonist of the story is ordinary high school boy Souji Mitsuka, who is obsessed with twintail hair style. One day, he meets a mysterious girl named Thouars from a different-dimension world. At the same time, monsters appear in the town where he lives. Thouars gives him an imaginary armor "Tail Gear" which can be activated with the strong love for twintail. Obviously, he is the perfect candidate. He transforms into a twintail soldier "Tail Red," which looks like a loli-girl, and starts fighting against the enemies.
