Synopsis:
Meimi Haneoka navigates a double life. By day, she's a typical 14-year-old; by night, she embodies Saint Tail, a vigilante dedicated to righting wrongs in a city plagued by petty crime and opportunistic thieves. Operating with agility and cunning, Saint Tail recovers stolen possessions and returns them to their rightful owners, often evading the attention of authorities and the watchful eye of her classmate, Daiki Asuka.
The series explores themes of justice, responsibility, and the complexities of personal identity as Meimi balances her secret life with the everyday challenges of adolescence. Alongside her friend Seira, a nun-in-training who provides support and insight, Meimi must contend with the growing affection of Daiki, creating a dynamic interplay between her heroic persona and her desire for normalcy. The narrative blends action-oriented sequences with quieter moments of character development, painting a portrait of a young woman grappling with her destiny.
