Ochiai, a salaryman working at a black company, is on his way home, on the verge of mental breakdown. He wants to die. But he doesn't want to die hungry! He passes by a ramen cart run by a young girl named Keira, with the sign "Shinigami Ramen." Keira calls herself a "Shinigami" (god of death) and offers Ochiai a bowl of ramen that's so good that it will allow him to die in peace if he eats it. Will he be able to enjoy the ramen and pass on, or not? Even if he doesn't die, the cute loli-reaper will give him hope for life! (Source: Shonen Ace, translated)
