4
5The year 3000, and the world has united itself under one country and is ruled by a benevolent King.

8
9The King offers Kyoko a compromise. If she manages to awaken her twin sister Ui from her slumber, Kyoko is free to not attend the celebration and continue her life as a regular student.
10
11In order to awaken Ui, Kyoko must awaken her powers as the Time Stranger and find the other 11 Strangers. With her bodyguards, Sakataki and Hizuki Jin, she sets off on a quest to find them.

13!! Time Stranger Kyoko contains the following Tropes
14
15* AllThereInTheManual: Parodied. The clock beneath Princess Ui's body was (so they say) created by Chronos, the God of Time, himself. In order to awaken her (so it seems), one needs to find and gather all the Strangers and their respective God Stones. Only then (so they say), will she open her eyes.
16--> ''What's with the constant 'so they say'?!''
17* AnimatedAdaptation: A short one-shot OVA focused on ''Chocola'', of all characters.
18* {{Animorphism}}: Kirito can turn into the thing their non-human DNA comes from.
19* ChekhovsGun: Kyoko's Time Staff, whom she affectionately calls 'Sticky'. [[spoiler:Sticky's actually Chronos, the God of Time.]]
20* CutShort: The manga ended prematurely due to ''Ribon'''s editors having issues with the story itself, as well as how Kyoko's headstrong personality apparently wasn't well-received by the magazine's readers at the time.
21* GenderBlenderName: Setsuna (Male) and Ginga (Male).
22* GottaCatchEmAll: Twelve Strangers and their respective twelve God Stones.
23* HalfHumanHybrid: Kirito tribes are made up of people who have human and animal/plant DNA.
24* ImprobableAge: All the Kirito tribe leaders are in their teens or younger.
