TV Aichi's official website for Bushiroad's Future Card Buddyfight television anime series began streaming a television commercial and an eight-minute promotional video on Sunday. The promotional video was originally shown at a conference Bushiroad held on Monday.

The anime takes place around the year 2030, in Japan's new capital city of Ch� Tokyo. Humans intermingle with beings from the parallel world of "Shinkinkai." The "Buddyfight" game chooses humans ("Buddyfighters") and partners them with Buddy Monsters from Shinkinkai, and the duo fight against other Buddyfighters. The battles in these games can sometimes even influence the fate of a country. Ga� Mikado is a sixth-year student at the "Partner Academy" elementary division who longs to be a Buddyfighter and to be partnered with a Monster. One day Ga� notices a young boy being bullied by delinquents, and he helps him out using his Aiki-jujutsu skills. Drum Bunker Dragon, a Monster and the son of the hero of Dragon World, watches Ga�'s actions, and decides to form a contract with him.
