Momo Miyaura (Karen Miyama) is an 11-year old girl who has recently moved to her mother Ikuko's (Yuka) hometown on a small island in Japan's Inland Sea. She and her mother are in mourning after an accident that killed her father Kazuo (Daizaburo Arakawa), whose last words to her were the words "Dear Momo," the beginning of a letter he was not able to finish. Soon after she moves in, she realises she is being followed by three {{youkai}} (goblins); previous gods sent to Earth to watch over the living in order to atone for their crimes.
