Crunchyroll describes the story:

This is a story about Momo, a high school girl who comes from a family of spirit mediums, and her classmate Okarun, an occult fanatic. After Momo rescues Okarun from being bullied, they begin talking. However, an argument ensues between them since Momo believes in ghosts but denies aliens exist, and Okarun believes in aliens but denies ghosts exist.

In order to demonstrate their beliefs, Momo visits an abandoned hospital where there have been reports of a UFO sighting, while Okarun explores a tunnel that is said to be haunted. Despite their initial shock at encountering intense paranormal events that surpass understanding, both of them discover new abilities. Momo unlocks her hidden powers, while Okarun gains the ability of a curse. As they navigate through these challenges, their romantic relationship develops.

The story of the occult battle and adolescence starts!
