Hans Christian Andersen is a little boy with a talent for making up stories. With his skill, his friends of all species, and his positive attitude, he helps brighten the lives of the people around him. This movie contains elements of many of Andersen's tales, most prominently The Red Shoes and The Little Match Girl.

Original short episodes featuring characters in super-deformed style.

Two bonus episodes that take place during the course of the series, approximately halfway through it seems. They are entitled 'Everything you always wanted to know about Nereids (but were afraid to ask)' and 'Heaven can wait for Maia Mizuki'. These stories are more lighthearted and comedic in tone, bordering on silly.

Third season of the Ketsuekigata-kun! series.
