Wending his way home after a bender one evening, master moocher and game programmer, Keita Ibuki, decides to satisfy a craven for ramen at a noodle stand. Instead of slurping soup, though, he surrenders his meal to a manic girl who, unbeknown to Keita, is a Motosumitama, a guardian of the coexistence equilibrium. When his new acquaintance is attacked, Keita gets caught in the crossfire and loses an arm. Awakening from the shock of his injury, Keita finds himself back in his apartment…arm intact! But just whose arm is it?
