Synopsis:

The quiet domesticity of the Onigami household is disrupted by the arrival of a peculiar being – a small, round creature who communicates solely through the word "chimi." Initially accepted by the sisters, Mutsumi and Hazuki, the situation takes an unexpected turn with the appearance of a dozen similar entities following a casual utterance. This surge of otherworldly visitors culminates in the opening of a portal and the arrival of Jabberwock the Eighth, a formidable messenger from Hell tasked with unleashing chaos.

He finds adapting to human life surprisingly difficult, and the Onigami sisters offer him refuge along with the "Chimimoryo spirits" that accompanied him. The narrative explores themes of acceptance, responsibility, and finding humor in the absurd as Jabberwock struggles to fulfill his demonic mission amidst the mundane realities of everyday existence, all while navigating the quirky dynamics of a family who’ve welcomed a demon into their home.
