The story revolves around a young woman named Punie Tanaka who is princess of Magical Land.

In order for her to become queen, however, she must become a transfer student in a Japanese high school.

This proves difficult to them because Punie is both skilled at martial arts and possesses magic powers which she uses to quickly defeat her enemies.

The series is a parody of magical princess anime, and often uses the juxtaposition of cute characters with brutal violence for humor.
