Tousuke Rokudou, a first-year student at Amori High, a predominantly delinquent school, wishes to live a peaceful life with his friends. However, because of his incompatibility with his classmates’ behavior, he is constantly bullied by them. The only exceptions are his two closest friends who are also social outcasts. Frustrated by their treatment, the three wish they could stand up and demand the fun, peaceful school life of their dreams in Rokudo’s Wicked Girls.

When Rokudou seemed to have lost hope, he received a mysterious package from his long-dead grandfather. Inside it was a priest’s robe and a mysterious scroll passed down through his family since the Japanese Heian period. This scroll contains a technique for warding off demons and evil spirits.
