Based on a seven-volume manga by Megumi Tachikawa, the story was adapted into an anime television series by producer TMS-Kyokuichi, broadcast by ABC.

Although Meimi is initially offended by Asuka Jr.'s arrogance and insensitivity towards others, she begins to find his genuine sincerity in chasing Saint Tail to be attractive and sends him calling cards to challenge him.

Eventually, Asuka Jr. had secretly been worried about Meimi's well-being the entire time, but cannot completely express it due to his poor social skills.

After repeated observation of Saint Tail's capers, Asuka Jr. comes to sympathize with her to the point he no longer believes she should be arrested, but still intends to "catch" her in order to protect her from the police or anyone else who would harm her.

Eight years later, Asuka Jr. carries on Saint Tail's desire to protect Seika City by working as a private detective, and proposes to and marries Meimi.
