The next day, the strange girl is introduced to Sheena's class as Mimi Kagari, and rumors start floating around that she could be the orphanage's infamous secret weapon of the same name. Appointed as Sheena's new roommate, Mimi immediately grows attached to her, while Sheena tries to sort out her own feelings on the matter.

Despite barren circumstances, the disparate pair grows closer. However, Sheena's worldview begins to crumble after she learns the truth behind Mimi's unimaginable power. [Written by MAL Rewrite]
