[edit] Story
Kai Nagisa, a normal high school girl who wishes to one day become a professional wrestler (despite having a strong cowardly side), is suddenly approached by a robot known as an Iczel. Iczel urges her to help save the Earth from invading aliens called Geas. The Geas, led by Chaos and Cross, are bent on stripping Earth's resources and then destroying it. To fight the invaders, Nagisa must merge with Iczel and become a battle-suited warrior named "Iczelion". She is understandably reluctant to take up this sudden unbelievable task and fight with the other Iczelions of Earth because Nagisa just wants to live a normal life without having such big responsibilities. Nagisa must overcome her fears and fight, together with other Iczelions, to prevent the invading alien forces from destroying their homeplanet, Earth.

[edit] Main Characters
- Kai Nagisa
- Voiced by: Yuri Shiratori (Japanese), Larissa Wolcott (English)
- A normal high school student who wishes to become a professional wrestler. One day, a robot named Iczel confronts Nagisa and urges her to help save the world from invading aliens. Although at first, she refused, Nagisa had no choice but to merge with Iczel to become an Iczelion. She struggles at first because she does not want to hold the responsibilty of being an Iczelion and saving the world, but later realizes that she must protect those she cares about, giving her the strength to become an Iczelion and fight to save the Earth.
- Iczel
- Voiced by: Masako Nozawa (Japanese), Rebecca Davis (English)
- A robot that confronts Nagisa and pleads her to help fight invading aliens that want to destroy the Earth. Iczel chooses Nagisa to become an Iczelion. Nagisa is reluctant in accepting the role but Iczel continuously pleads her to fight to protect her homeplanet. There are other Iczels on Earth that attend to their own Iczelions; Iczel Black, Iczel Gold, and Iczel Silver. Each Iczel has their own personality, which is similar to that of their Iczelion girl counterpart.
- Shiina Nami
- Voiced by: Yumi Touma (Japanese), Claire Hamilton (English)
- A rock singer and works as a dancer in a night-club, she is Iczelion Black. From all the Iczelion, she is the most direct and sure of herself. She is also the most skilled with a sword and in hand to hand combat. Nami currently seems to be the strongest and most capable of the Iczelions.
- Kiiro Iijima
- Voiced by: Chinami Nishimura (Japanese), Jessica Schwartz (English)
- An idol singer, she is Iczelion Gold. She is very energetic and agile. She tends to mock her opponents in battle but she shows that she is a capable fighter. She is probably the most girlish and enthusiastic of the Iczelion, which doesn't mean that her fighting skills aren't at all weak. She displays one of the broadest range of attacks.
- Kawai Kawai
- Voiced by: Yuri Amano (Japanese), Jessica L. Wilson (English)
- Another high school girl who attends a different high school from Kai Nagisa, she is Iczelion Silver. She is not so active like the other Iczelions, but is very calm and quiet. Kawai is the first to try and persuade Nagisa to fight alongside the other Iczelions and protect the Earth. Kawai is a very gentle person and she is the one who explains why the Iczel were created. While others Iczelion may have their own reasons for fighting, Kawai firmly believes that there is nothing more important than defending their home, Earth.
