About this title

Synopsis

Yurie Hitotsubashi was just an average middle school student living in the city of Onomichi on Japan's inland sea. She spent her days worrying about exams and trying to get Kenji, the clueless boy she likes, to notice her. Then during lunch one day she suddenly announces to her friend Mitsue that she had become a goddess the night before. Their classmate Matsuri quickly latches on to Yurie's newfound divinity as a way to promote her family's financially struggling Shinto shrine. She hopes that in replacing Yashima-sama, their ineffective local god, with Yurie, it will make the shrine more popular. Now all Yurie has to do is figure out what she's supposed to do with her power.

External profile
Matsuri is the person in charge of the Raifuku Shrine in Onomichi. She runs the shrine with her sister, Miko. Unlike Miko, she cannot see spirits without the charms that Yurie usually writes (thought it is stated in the manga by Miko, that she too could see spirits before). Her name means "worship".

Mitsue Shijo3 fan favorites
External profile
Mitsue is Yurie's best friend. She's very down to earth but wishes that more interesting things would happen to her throughout the series (her love life). Yurie often goes to her for advice and although her advice is simple, and usually is just common sense, she is always right. She is usually possessed by Yashima when he needs to communicate with people or when he wants to perform. [Wikipedia]
