Tokiwa Megu is a modern-era woman who excels at work but cannot succeed where romance is concerned. By chance, she meets Iura Kakeru, a member of the time patrol team who comes from the future and together they receive a special mission where they are tasked to catch illegal time travelers. Although the two were former lovers, Megu’s memory of their time together has been erased in accordance with the time traveling governing rules. In order to make her relationship come to fruition this time, Megu spends time struggling to find the love of her life.
