The story follows Nanami Momozono, an ordinary schoolgirl. As it often goes in Japanese anime, Nanami helps a God, afterward, he kisses her forehead. This turns her into a lesser deity. She settles in a shrine where she meets Tomoe, a fox youkai, i. e. a shapeshifter or mononoke who wins her heart.
The series mostly deals with Nanami’s acceptance of her new role as a deity and her unusual relationship with Tomoe. Namely, any bond between a human and a youkai is forbidden, and they must find out a way to deal with these problems.
