In times of need, if you look in the right place, you might just spot a strange telephone number scrawled in red. Calling this number leads to a young man introducing himself as the Yato God. Yato is a minor deity and a self-proclaimed "Delivery God" who dreams of amassing millions of worshippers. However, without a single shrine dedicated to his name, his goals remain far from realized. He spends his days performing odd jobs for five yen each, until his weapon partner grows tired of her useless master and deserts him. Just as things appear grim for the god, his fortune shifts when a middle school girl, Hiyori Iki, supposedly saves Yato from a car accident by taking the hit for him. Remarkably, she survives, but the incident causes her soul to become loose, allowing it to leave her body. Hiyori demands that Yato restore her to normal, but upon learning that he requires a new partner to do so, she reluctantly agrees to help him find one. With Hiyori's assistance, Yato's luck may finally be turning around.
