Based on Yuri Kitayama's light novels, the series centers around Rio, an orphaned boy, who realizes at seven that he's the reincarnation of Haruto Amakawa, a Japanese university student with a dark past. He also learns about his unique powers, which he uses to save the kidnapped princess of the Bertram Kingdom.

Pleased by his benevolent deed, the King enrolls the boy into the Bertram Royal Academy, a prestigious academy for noble children. Spirit Chronicles season 2 will likely show Rio exploring more of his powers and creating more bonds with others.
