| Momo Ayase, a high school student obsessed with actor Ken Takakura, befriends a nerdy boy she nicknames Okarun (instead of his actual name, Ken Takakura) who mistakes her kindness for a shared obsession with paranormal phenomena; while she believes in spirits, he believes in aliens, and they send each other to notorious places to prove their respective interests. At abandoned Negi Hospital, Momo is abducted by the extraterrestrial Serpoians; meanwhile, Okarun is cursed by Turbo Granny, a yōkai who has joined with a bound spirit and takes his penis. After rescuing each other, Momo uses her newly awakened psychokinetic power to suppress Okarun's curse, which gives him a depressed demon form with Turbo Granny's powers. Returning to the shrine she shares with her granny, Momo and Okarun battle the Flatwoods monster. When Momo's grandmother Seiko, aka disreputable spirit medium Santa Dodoria, returns and saves Momo from Okarun, she coaches the teens how to defeat Turbo Granny. Momo challenges Turbo Granny to a race and tricks her into sending her full spirit into Okarun; the bound spirit awakens and begins to pursue them as an immense freshwater crab. |||||

However, Aira's awakening also makes her visible to the Acrobatic Silky yōkai, who proceeds to swallow Okarun, Aira, and Momo; Momo burns her from inside, setting the trio free. |||||

| Momo and Okarun defeat Silky, but Aira dies; to revive her, Momo transfers Silky's aura to Aira, and Momo empathizes with both after learning their similarly tragic family histories. After sharing a meal together, Aira insists Momo is a demon and vows to break Momo's hold on Okarun. At school, Momo catches Okarun and Aira in a compromising posture, which occurred after Aira confessed her feelings to him because of her romantically awkward notions. The Serpoians return, flooding the school to aid their mercenaries: two aliens similar to a plesiosaur and a mantis shrimp. All three humans fight ineffectively on their own, even after Aira and Okarun draw on their yōkai powers as the Silky and Turbo Granny, respectively. Okarun is stripped naked and the Serpoians attempt to harvest his sex organs. Momo finds an effective teamwork strategy, but the Serpoians, having tired of their gig workers' incompetence, have merged into a single aquatic monster. |||||

At school, Jiji is popular and Momo banters with him, making Okarun feel lonely. When an anatomical model runs by and Momo spots what they think is a kintama, they catch the model, named Taro, and reunite him with his love, a female anatomical torso named Hana.

| Momo goes to the hot springs, leaving the boys alone at the house, where they bicker and bond over her. After finding a secret room, a group of middle-aged women arrive; they are the landlords from the Kito family. Momo is similarly beset by middle-aged Kito men, but she is rescued by Turbo Granny. On the way back to the house, Momo visits the Tsuchinoko shrine and meets the priest, who relates a local legend: historically, villagers sacrificed children to pacify a giant snake, which kept a volcano quiescent; the Kito family attempt to sacrifice the trio at the house, which was built on the site of the ancient altar. Falling into a pit below the house, they spot the creature, which Turbo Granny realizes is a Mongolian death worm. Driven by its psychic energy, Okarun and Momo keep trying to hurt themselves; they resume normal thoughts in the presence of Jiji's spirit, which he learns was one of the sacrificed children. The spirit hates the Kito family; sympathizing with its loneliness, Jiji welcomes it inside himself, but it is an Evil Eye yōkai, untrustworthy and violent to humans. |||||

| The athletic Evil Eye/Jiji targets Momo and Turbo Granny, but Okarun protects them and throws Momo to the surface, where she sets the house aflame. Okarun and Evil Eye fight as the wounded worm spews venom; as the fire department pours water on the house, the worm surfaces and is consumed in sunlight, then regurgitates the Kito family. As the volcano erupts, Momo uses the worm's body as a hose to divert water onto the lava. The Tsuchinoko shrine priest defends her from the Kito matriarch. All three unite to face the Evil Eye; he is delayed by the mantis shrimp and then defeated by Seiko and Taro. Taro seals the Evil Eye inside his shell, which is lined with ofuda amulets. Chiqutita continues fighting the lava from aboard their flying saucer and lifts a ball of worm phlegm from underground, which protected Okarun and Turbo Granny.

Peeny-Weeny and Chiquitita help rebuild it using alien nanotechnology. Jiji slips into the Evil Eye, but his muttered threats are treated as a joke.

| Okarun's plan calls for transforming the house through visualization; the awkward classmate, Kinta Sakata, succeeds with a daibutsu mecha he pilots. Working together, Kinta, Momo, and Aira defeat the kaiju with a powerbomb, causing it to shrink and reveal it is a suit piloted by a female alien, who then kisses Okarun. They take her to Peeny-Weeny, who uses a glitchy translator mask to learn her name is Vamola; she is seeking someone powerful enough to defeat her, who she will then marry. At Negi Hospital, the Serpoians meet an invading, lizard-like alien, which overwhelms them.

They rent a space at a manga café overnight, narrowly avoiding an attack from Kashima; returning to the shrine, Peeny-Weeny tells Momo all her friends are wounded after fighting aliens; she finds a ball similar to Vamola's in the mecha suit of one of the dead octopus-like aliens, and kicks her out, infuriated. When Rokuro learns Okarun's nut was taken, he realizes the 'globalist' alien invaders are an advance party which intend to use its power to bring their main force to Earth in five days.

Momo is sent ahead to close the Tokyo Tower warp gate; Vamola returns to help her, but the lizard-like mecha extracts Vamola from the kaiju suit and impales her. Momo grabs Vamola back and begins treating her. Connected by telepathic chips, the friends learn Vamola's background during a flashback: as the sole surviving Sumerian child, she was saved and raised by Banga after a battle with the globalist aliens which killed all Sumerian men.

| Since Zuma exhausted his powers while fighting the knight boss, after retrieving the kintama, he passes it to Momo, who takes down the chef; they are awarded the Nom Nom Bongo (Death Pâtissier) game card, similar to a Pokémon card, which grants them powers from eating treats. Checking their pockets, they also have a Carmine (Dark Knight) card from the earlier fight, and realize they must defeat four bosses in total. After beating the next, Rock-hard Costinus (Medusa), they rest at an inn to prepare for their final challenge, which is to defeat an army guarding a castle and destroy the crystal within; the game uses a rock paper scissors scheme to determine weaknesses between four types of soldiers in the army. Okarun returns to the diorama with Rin and Turbo Granny while being pursued by Officer Bega. The street gang bursts into the diorama world, saving Momo and Zuma from defeat, and when that pair enter the castle, Okarun arrives, yelling not to break the crystal, but too late, as Zuma slices it in half. |||||

| Turbo Granny explains the diorama is a cursed tsuzura [ja] (wicker trunk); with the last guardian defeated, the sealed Fairy-Tale Card yōkai is released and transforms Zuma into the rampaging 'Brella (Umbrella) Boy yōkai. Momo is wounded; teaming up with Rokuro and Bega, Okarun takes the kintama away from 'Brella Boy and knocks him out, but Okarun stops when a spirit asks him to stop bullying his older brother. In a flashback, Zuma's family fell apart rapidly: after his father dies and they pile up insurmountable debt, his cheerful younger brother drowns while trying to retrieve a beloved umbrella; he is left orphaned after his mother dies by leaping in front of a subway train after taking him on a final, fun outing to an amusement park. As a juvenile delinquent gang leader, he vows to smash the world to pieces, but is arrested by Officer Bega, who takes him in; Bega shares similar tragic family losses, but instead refuses to be beaten by the world and vows to protect Zuma. When Bega tries to save a young, bullied boy from drowning in similar circumstances, Zuma receives 'Brella Boy's powers and saves both Bega and the boy. |||||
