Realising she has exactly this power and wanting to change her humdrum everyday existence, 17 year-old Makoto Konno decides to visit the past and frivolously uses this new gift to satisfy her desires in the present. Before long, however, she soon realises that changing the past is not quite as simple as it seems...
