Synopsis
Seven rice deity sisters search for their mother across Kyushu, solving local problems and growing through food and cooking while based in Usa City.
This is the story of the seven-sister unit "Komekami! Girls," children of the rice deity, born from the tradition: "In a single grain of rice, seven gods reside." When their mother (the deity of rice, or the rice-god queen) was called back in haste to the celestial realm and no longer able to return to the earthly realm they search for her traces using Usa City (Oita Prefecture) as their base, and teleport to Hachiman shrines throughout Kyushu island. As they solve local problems, they learn about food, take part in cooking battles, and grow.
