JIZO-Evangelist

Akari Noda, who was abused by her parents, lives with her relatives in Jizo-ji Temple. However, they don’t really like living together with Akari and make her do a lot of housework, which forces her to shrink from them every day.
One day, she meets a strange man who talks to Jizo-statues all day long.
He says “We Jizo-evangelists ask Jizo what they do, and deliver their words to heaven. I heard that the Jizo, who is the most respected by other Jizo, is somewhere in this temple.”
Akari helps him to find the Jizo and begins - with the help of the mysterious Jizo-evangelist - to realize the fact about her painful past.
