Set in a slightly futuristic world where Earth has been invaded and is at war with aliens from another dimension called the Nova, the story follows the adventures of a Japanese boy named Kazuya Aoi who enrolls for training at a special school for genetically modified girls called Pandoras who battle the aliens, and their male partners, called Limiters, who use a special power called "freezing" to limit their opponent's mobility. The protagonist makes the acquaintance of an unusual older girl named Satellizer el Bridget who appears to be the most powerful Pandora in her class, but has not yet chosen a male partner to be her Limiter, and in spite of the warnings of all his friends, he decides to be her Limiter.

Ever since his mother passed away, first-year student Setsuna Kai swore to become stronger for her sake. Despite tireless daily training at his elementary school's kendo club, he still cannot defeat his rival and friend Mirai Kaname. However, on their everyday walk home from practice, an ominous black haze appears over Tokyo, blocking out the sky and plunging low temperatures, covering the city with crystal snow in the middle of summer.

As Setsuna returns to his dark apartment, a child flies through the walls and hands him a wrapped box before taking his last breath in his arms. A demon, hellbent on taking his life, appears before Setsuna can process what had just occurred. At death's door, Setsuna's conviction to live awakens a power from deep within him, allowing him to summon a demon of his own.

The Cerberus demon named Cool explains to Setsuna that he is one of the eight Devil Children who fought Hell and must now fight to save the world from destruction. Though he is vehemently opposed to accepting such an important responsibility, Setsuna's determination to surpass Mirai drives him to assume the position. Alongside Mirai—who also happens to be one of the fated Devil Children—Setsuna dives into the Demon World to locate the other six in order to fulfill their mission.

It was on Hokkaido that a mysterious tower had been built, a strand of metal reaching up out of the atmosphere, visible from the northern tip of Honshu. In 1996, three teenagers, Hiroki, Takuya and Sayuri, make a pact—they will build an experimental aircraft, almost invisible to surveillance, cross over to Hokkaido and unlock the secrets of the tower. Their dream was never realized, because Sayuri was sent to Tokyo for treatment after she fell into a coma. It is now three years later. The rosy illusions of youth have fallen away, but not the unbreakable strength of the trio’s promise. The truth of the tower will be uncovered, and with it, the link between it and Sayuri’s mysterious, carefully tended condition.
