Shinigami to Shoujo

Toono Sayo is a lovely young lady who resides in the same house as her older brother, Toono Touya, who writes books. Her brother enlightens her on his upcoming work titled “Shinigami to Shoujo.” He reveals that the story will be about a lonesome shinigami and a girl who are hunting for the most beautiful word in English. Sayo encountered a man dressed in peculiar white garments one day as she looked up at a clock tower that had stopped moving a long time ago. When she asks him who he is and why he is wearing such strange attire, he tells her that he has no memory of his identity and only knows that he is a Shinigami. The only thing he remembers about himself is that he is a shinigami. Sayo recommends that if he does not know his name, she will give it to him and name him ‘Ao’ (blue) after how close the color of the man’s eyes is to the color of the sky.
