In the 1910s, Kodō Iwamoto is a third-year student at Seihō Middle School, a military-controlled institution dedicated to collecting and researching supernatural phenomena to harness that power for military use. Under military orders, Kodō travels across Japan to investigate supernatural occurrences. In one town where it is rumored that “black snow” falls, he meets a boy who believes his mysterious powers are an illness. Kodō shows the boy how to use his abilities and offers him a letter of recommendation to Seihō Middle School. As he continues his journey to other areas, Kodō encounters many other mysterious events and individuals with supernatural conditions, recruiting them to the school and becoming their senpai (senior mentor).
