In Sagan, a city that had barely escaped desertification, a massive outbreak of Horrors threw the city into chaos. Appearing in the city to save it from this crisis were Ermina, a Makai Priestess of the Dragon Clan, and Rian. While traveling with Ryuga toward Claire City, Rian had been summoned by Ryume and was carrying out a different mission.

On top of that, the mysterious Makai Priest Rector draws ever closer to Ryuga. Amid the increasingly chaotic battles, Ryuga and Rian are guided back into a fated reunion. After the fighting ends, Ryuga witnesses the drastically changed state of his old ally, Ryume. And as Ryume’s life comes to an end, he foretells that a great calamity will soon be unleashed upon the world. Determined to stop it, Ryuga and Rian rise to take action, but what awaits them is a cruel destiny they must bear as protectors. The battle that will shake the fate of both Ryuga and Rian now begins.

The universe is not just one. Within the overlapping layers of the multiverse, there exists another Earth that looks exactly like Earth. In "MultiEarth ?0073", which has entered an era of cosmic coexistence, crimes involving the exploitation of energy-based lifeforms known as "Emorgy" are breaking out one after another. Reiji Doki, an investigator for the Galaxy Federal Police, is Gavan Infinity, the only person in the universe permitted to claim the title of "Space Sheriff Gavan". However, he is stationed in the backwater Archives Department. His true objective is to investigate Emorgy crimes across dimensions. Chasing these inter-dimensional threats, Reiji leaps through space-time, encountering the Gavans of various dimensions and joining forces to bring justice to the multiverse. "Jo-Chaku!" The Space Sheriffs Gavan transcend the boundaries of the universe to strike down evil!

Dogai Ryuga, the Golden Knight Garo, has regained his golden glow and destroyed the evil plots of Horror. An encounter with a mysterious knight clad in “steel” leads Ryuga to the next test. Now, the story that approaches the origin of the protector begins!

In both shows the leads are socially awkward outcasts. They also idolize their popular love interest.
