The show is an action-packed mystery that takes the audience through the intriguing world of science fiction and fantasy. The series' cast includes talented voice actors such as Hiroaki Hirata, Hiroki Touchi, and Asami Seto.

The show takes place in a futuristic world where technology and science meet myth and legend. The story revolves around a detective agency called the Royal Investigation Service (RIS), which is tasked with solving complex and bizarre cases involving superhuman beings known as "Killer B." The Killer Bs are endowed with extraordinary powers, and their existence remains a mystery to the people of the world.

The protagonist of the show is Keith Flick, a former RIS agent who has retired from active service. However, he is called back to duty when a new string of murders, committed by the legendary Killer B, emerges. Keith is joined by a team of skilled detectives, each with their unique abilities, to unravel the mysteries of the Killer B murders.

The Killer B cases are not the only mysteries surrounding the RIS, as the organization itself is shrouded in secrecy. The show delves into the political battles and power struggles between the RIS and other authority figures, with each side vying for control over the future of the world.

As the show progresses, the layers of the story are gradually peeled away, revealing more about the motives of the RIS, the Killer Bs, and the other key players in the narrative. The audience is taken on a journey of twists and turns, as they attempt to piece together the complex web of events and the players' various motivations.

One of the key features of the show is its stunning visuals. The animation style is sleek and stylized, with vibrant colors and detailed character designs that bring the show's intricate and visually arresting world to life. The action scenes are particularly noteworthy, with each fight scene choreographed to perfection, keeping the audience on the edge of their seats.

Another significant element of the show is the quality of the voice acting. Each cast member delivers a remarkable performance, bringing depth and emotion to their characters. Hiroaki Hirata delivers an incredible performance as Keith Flick, capturing the character's dry wit and intelligence perfectly. Hiroki Touchi delivers an equally impressive performance as Gilbert Ross, RIS's Deputy Director, imbuing the character with a sense of authority and mystery.

Overall, B: The Beginning is an engaging and visually stunning anime series that offers a unique blend of science fiction, fantasy, and mystery.
