Momo Arashima just wants to be normal. But she's about to become
legendary . . . All Momo Arashima wants for her twelfth birthday is
to be normal. At home, she cares for her absentminded widowed
mother. At school, kids bully her for mixing up reality with the
magical stories her mother used to tell her. But then a terrifying
death hag straight out of those stories attacks Momo in a very real
way - and she's rescued by a talking fox, calling himself Niko. So
it's fair to say all hopes for normalcy are now long gone . . .
Turns out Momo's mom has been keeping a pretty big secret - she's
actually a Shinto goddess, who used to protect a passageway to
Yomi, also known as the land of the dead. That passageway is now
under attack, making Momo's mom gravely ill, and meaning countless
evil spirits are threatening to escape and destroy humanity. And on
top of that, Momo is the only one who can stop them. Joined by Niko
and Danny, Momo's former best friend - whom she never planned to
speak to again, much less save the world with - Momo must embrace
her identity as half-human, half-goddess to unlock her divine
powers, save her mother's life, force the demons back to Yomi - and
save the world while she's at it.
