For his art project Mikuriya Jin carved a statue from the recently chopped local sacred tree. As he is about to bring it to school, the goddess of the tree, Nagi, descends upon the statue, having slept until now, not knowing of her demise. Since the sacred tree can no longer protect the surrounding area from impurities, Nagi has to do it herself now, dragging poor Jin with her.

Main characters
Nagi443 fan favoritesExternal profileHeight: 155 cm B/W/H: 78/57/80 Nagi is a goddess who wakes up after years of slumber with Jin's unexpected help. Her mission as a deity is to cleanse the impurities of the world, but as her powers have weakened over time, her body is easily harmed by them, and she ends up having to do it with the help of Jin and branding an improvised exorcist staff created using a magical girl-themed toy baton.

Zange58 fan favoritesExternal profileHeight: 159 cm Zange is another goddess and Nagi's twin sister. Opposite to Nagi who had her powers weakened due to her sacred tree being cut down, Zange's tree is still intact and located in a church's courtyard, thus she is still able to catch and cleanse impurities by herself. The fact that she switched her character to that of a Catholic nun, as it is a stronger religion, contributed to her divinity being intact. Despite seemingly being kind and caring on the outside, she usually takes advantage of Nagi's weakened state to torment her.
Tsugumi Aoba44 fan favoritesExternal profileHeight: 162 cm Jin's childhood friend who also harbors a crush on him. She is concerned about Jin living alone with another girl despite Nagi's fabricated story about being his half-sister.
