Yaiba Kurogane is an adventuring boy who knows how to be a samurai and little else. Yaiba lives with his father, Kenjurou, in the forest. One day, while Yaiba was eating, a troop of gorillas came to attack. Yaiba and his father escaped and hid inside a box, but they did not know that the box was full of pineapples and was going to be transported into the city. In the city, Yaiba finds out that he is a legendary warrior and has to fight the evil of a demonic looking high-school student named Takeshi Onimaru.

The people that Yaiba meets along his journey to become a true samurai encourage him, train him, or inspire him to greatness, though at heart he is still a child, and his incredible skill with a sword is matched only by his kindness towards his friends. Though he tends to leap before he looks, and his thick-headedness tends to turn potential allies into enemies, his friends soon clobber him, and salvage the situation. This unlikely group embarks on a host of incredible adventures where they meet legendary figures from Japanese history, and finally overcome impossible odds, and put everything on the line, to save the entire planet from a threat not of this world.

Gosho Aoyama modeled the character of Yaiba after the protagonist of Ore wa Teppei, which also inspired the author to take up kendo, although he noted Teppei to be a lot smarter than Yaiba.{{cite book| last=Aoyama| first=Gosho| title=Case Closed|volume=83|publisher=Viz Media|isbn=978-1-9747-2909-8| chapter=True Profiles of the Case Closed Cast| location=San Francisco| date=July 2022|page=190}}
