The anime follows a girl named Hinako, who is in high school and lives by herself in a calm seaside town. Everything changes when a monster attacks her. But she was saved by Shiori, a mermaid. Shiori tells Hinako that her body is very delicious and that more monsters would want her.

For her own sake, Shiori decides to protect Hinako so that when she is fit for consumption, she will eat her. Rather than fleeing, Hinako embraces the situation and develops a strange bond with the presumed marauder. It’s a weird blend of horror and emotion that keeps fans hooked.
