Imagine a world where the secret of immortality was discovered, causing women to stop aging at the age of twelve. Looks like it could be an ideal playground for a discoverer with less than healthy interests, right? That's exactly why Big Man Upstairs sends Dokuro-chan, one of his angelic assassins, in the past to "treat" with the sicko who messed up nature!
But Dokuro-chan decides to settle with his target, Sakura Kusakabe, and keep him too busy to find eternal life. Funny enough, the path of non-violence leads to a fountain of blood, while Dokuro-chan accidentally kills Sakura almost every day to resurrect him moments later with a magical song.
