Katsuya Ishida is writing the screenplay. Yoshihiro Ike (Rage of Bahamut Genesis, Tiger & Bunny) is composing the music.

Netflix first unveiled the 12-episode series under the title Perfect Bones, but later changed the title to B: The Beginning. Each episode will be about 23 minutes long. Netflix describes the story:

In a world powered by advanced technology, crime and action unfold in the archipelagic nation of Cremona. Koku, the protagonist. Keith, the legendary investigator of the royal police force RIS. A mysterious criminal organization. A wide variety of characters race through the fortified city as it is beset by the serial killer, Killer B, and a chain of crimes in this suspense drama by director Kazuto Nakazawa and Production I.G.

Earlier plot descriptions for the series describe a future where scientists are aiming to create "perfect humans" to achieve world peace, but the new humans they create are kidnapped by an evil organization.
