With the recent advancements in information technology and neuroscience in Japan, human memories can now be saved and recorded via a technology called "e-Memory." While the government prohibits the digitization of the memories of the living, numerous state-operated facilities now exist that will allow one to communicate with the deceased: the "Connect Center."
College student Hiroki Kusuhara struggles with suicidal impulses after the sudden passing of his close childhood friend, Sorano Mizunashi. In order to accept the reality of Sorano's death, Hiroki goes to the Connect Center with his friend, Amamiya Kakeru but when they stand before Sorano's memory, what they witness is something inexplicable. With doubts surrounding the circumstances of her death, Hiroki and Kakeru decide to try and steal Sorano's memories. In the midst of this, Hiroki meets a mysterious girl named Reina and becomes embroiled in a battle involving a secret hidden within humanity.
