Marika Katou, a third year student at Hakuho Girls' Academy, is a legitimate space pirate with a Letter of Marque. Between her studies, leading her school's space yacht club, working part time at Cafe Lamp, and being the captain of the space pirate ship Bentenmaru, Marika's days are very busy. One day, Marika gets a job to rob a high-class passenger ship, and she discovers that on the passenger list is Kanata Mugen, a boy who owns a "galaxy pass". Thus, an adventure featuring a hyperspace race between pirates and one young boy begins.

Think of this movie as an hour and a half long episode of Bodacious Space Pirates with Marika trying to figure out the origins of a young boy with a mysterious "galaxy pass" following one of her pirate missions. The trademark elements of the TV anime are retained for this movie with Marika's life as high school student and galactic pirate creating some amusing comedy and engaging adventure, while noticeably sporting higher quality animation as there are some noticeable detail upgrades on spaceship and character designs. While the movie adds nothing new to Bodacious Space Pirates, Abyss of Hyperspace still plays out no differently from a typical episode of the fun sci-fi comedy-adventure and is a definite recommendation for those who enjoyed the series.
