Plot

Sōji Mitsuka is an ordinary high school boy who has an obsession for twintail hair. One day he encounters a mysterious girl named Twoearle, who is from a parallel world, when monsters appear in his town and declare that all twintails in the world belong to them. These monsters feed off "attribute power", the spiritual energy of humans. Twoearle entrusted Sōji with Tail Gear, imaginary armor initiated by powerful twintail attributes. With the armor, Sōji transforms into Tail Red, a twintail warrior (ツインテイルズ関係者 tsuinteiruzu kankei-sha?), to protect Earth.
