High-schooler Miki Yoshida has made a vow: for her senior year at her Fukuyama high school, she has resolved to become a more assertive, decisive person. This new resolve is quickly put to the test when she meets Hiro Sakurai, who has just transferred into the school. Taciturn and more than a little weird—he can be seen secretly observing people and taking notes on them with some zeal—Hiro immediately gets Miki’s attention, and, despite Hiro’s protests, she resolves to befriend him and, if possible, figure him out.

Taciturn and more than a little weird—he can be seen secretly observing people and taking notes on them with some zeal—Hiro immediately gets Miki’s attention, and, despite Hiro’s protests, she resolves to befriend him and, if possible, figure him out.
With some work Miki eventually finds out that Hiro is actually a Deliverer, part of a group of quasi-celestial beings whose mission, as it turns out, is to save love. Love, it is revealed, is actually a finite force, and Deliverers, with the help of their hold spirits—quasi-sentient shape-shifters—make sure that it is transferred from bad couples to good ones before it is killed and depleted.
As Miki becomes more involved in Hiro’s life, and their friendship deepens, it brings about a score of challenges, which they must deal through in the most eventful year of Miki’s life.
