Satoru Fujinuma works part-time at as a pizza deliveryman; this is not where he thought he would be as a 29-year-old man, but an unsuccessful career as a mangaka led him to this place.
However, he also has an abnormal skill: when anything life-threatening happens to him or those around him, an ability called "Revival" triggers, and he gets sent to the past until he can save the lives of anyone who is threatened. . When someone close to him gets murdered by an unknown man, he gets framed for it. Running away from the situation, he inexplicably sent to 18 years in the past, right before the death of a classmate at the time, Kayo Hinazuki, an event that left him some scars in his childhood.
Now, Satoru, with the mind of an adult but the body of a child, is tasked with preventing the crime and saving Kayo's life by figuring out who the real culprit is...and maybe prove his innocence in the future in the meantime, while figuring how on earth the two situations are connected.
