[edit]Plot

30 years before a strange phenomena called a "spacequake" devastated the center of Eurasia, claiming the lives of at least 150 million people. Since then, smaller spacequakes plague the world on a irregular basis. Shidō Itsuka, a seemingly ordinary high schooler comes across a mysterious girl at the ground zero of a spacequake and learns from his sister Kotori she is one of the "Spirits" who are the real cause of the spacequakes that occur when they manifest themselves in the world. He also learns that Kotori is the captain of the airship "Ratatoskr" and recruits him to make use of his mysterious ability to seal the Spirits' powers and stop them from being a threat to mankind. However, there is a catch: To seal a Spirit, he must make her fall in love with him.

[edit]Spirits

Yoshino (四糸乃 Yoshino?)
Voiced by: Iori Nomizu
Second spirit saved by Shidou and she has a very shy personality, depending on her puppet in her left hand, [Yoshinon] most of time for communication. Her Angel is Zadkiel, a giant rabbit puppet that she summons and controls with her right hand. It is capable of breathing out freezing air that freezes the AST members along with their territory. [Yoshinon] is another personality that was born out of Yoshino's wish to not be alone.
Kurumi Tokisaki (時崎 狂三 Tokisaki Kurumi?)
Voiced by: Asami Sanada
The third spirit that appears in the series. The most brutal spirit to appear in the series. Her Astral Dress is made out of crimison and black frills, giving her the appearance of a Gothic Lolita. Her left eye is an inorganic clock face, with the clock hands moving in the opposite direction, representing her life. She transfers into Shidou's class in Volume 3. She is attracted to Shidou from the very start, gaining the ire of Tohka and Origami. She is very aggressive in her actions, causing Shidou to be bewildered during his mission on making her fall in love with him. She has a history with Mana, Mana has been repeatedly killing Kurumi fails as Kurumi keeps reappearing thanks to her Angel, Zafkiel.
Her Angel, which takes the form of a massive clock face with a rifle and a handgun of intricate designs taking the place of the minute and hour hands of the clock, allows her to control time. She is able to summon her past selves to fight or take her place as they are essentially Kurumi herself. The twelve Roman numerals on the clock has different powers that only the original Kurumi can use. Her power causes her life to be eaten away, the clock hands on her eye rapidly turning in the clockwise direction each time she uses Zafikel's power. This forces her to obtain 'time' from outside sources, specifically from killing other humans. She reveals to Shidou that she transferred to Raizen High School in order to eat him, or specifically the power that he has within him. She was defeated in the start of Volume 4 by Kotori, with a fourth Zafikel's clock face and her left arm blasted away by Camael.
