In a fantastical version of Japan, the creatures known as ''kajiki'' freely roam about the land and wander the skies. Though their size and supernatural abilities may be intimidating, they are sought out by all kinds of people as their resemblance to ordinary animals and vegetables is no coincidence: their moniker means "The Divine Food" and were said to be made by the gods to provide the ingredients for the most heavenly feast possible.

Young chef Toya Yasoya lives out an ordinary life as adopted son of the Yasoya family and restaurant in a small town with his childhood friend, Izayoi Kukui, the young heiress of the noble Kukui household. When one day a ''kajiki'' salmon shark bites off Izayoi's arm, Toya awakens and forms a bond with the steel knife tsukomogami Hihiirokane in order to kill the shark and feed its divine flesh to Izayoi to heal her. Toya now sets out to hunt down as many ''kajiki'' as possible in the hopes that one of them will have the miraculous properties of being able to restore Izayoi's missing arm.
