plot

Takeshi Ōmura is an average middle schooler cursed with the bad fortune, as his every day life is a misery; his house burns down, he steps his hand on dung, he gets chased by a wild dog and all sorts of activities that ruined his life. One day, he is visited by an angel with the name of Elle, and she claims that she came down from the heavens to aid Takeshi in his misfortune. To get rid of his malediction of bad luck, he places the curse in a small ball with the help of Elle and throws it out of sight. As Elle leaves and Takeshi continues his daily life, he finds the ball again and decides to wait for a person to pick it up. Unfortunately, a young girl speculates the ball and comes into a path of a moving truck. Takeshi, realizing that he wouldn't be happy if he didn't save the girl. He touches the ball and shouting that he would be the successor of the curse if saved by Elle. The angel transports them to a backyard of a house and becomes a human (experiencing gravity and a tangible body). From then on, Elle lives at the Ōmura household (and adopting the name to her own), and attends Takeshi's school.
