The animation is from the studio Gonzo and the story has as its protagonist the young Aoi who inherited the ability to see spirits from her grandfather. Aoi prides herself on cooking and one day, she is feeding some agricultural spirits when suddenly a god and the master of “Tenshinya” (Heavenly Inn) appear and take her away. He says that because of her grandfather’s debts, she must become his bride. Aoi hates this idea and instead declares that she will pay off her grandfather’s debt by working at Tenjin-ya.
