Description:
A young-looking
girl named Momo (モモ) who is a shinigami, or death
god. Momo is clad in all white, along with having long white hair, and as a god
of death, she leads deceased souls to the other side. She carries with her a
large scythe and an ID card which helps to facilitate in her
identification as a shinigami; her shinigami ID number is A-100100. Momo is
different from other shinigami because she tries to ease the suffering of the
people she encounters whether they are still living or already dead, such as
conveying messages from the dead to the living. She is also known to cry a lot,
and she says that she cries for the dead because they no longer can.
Accompanying Momo is a talking black cat familiar named Daniel (ダニエル Danieru) with a bell around his neck and bat-like
wings that helps Momo out. The living frequently hears the ringing of Daniel's
bell when Momo and Daniel are nearby. Daniel has a calm character and does not
show as much sympathy to humans as Momo, but is still patient with them. The
story follows Momo and Daniel as they interact with the living and usually
consists of them changing something sorrowful for the living.
