Platinum End

Having lost the will to live, Mirai Kakehashi decides to kill himself on the day of his middle school graduation. However, Nasse the angel suddenly appears and saves his life. Furthermore, Nasse grants him Wings and Arrows to inspire hope in him. Mirai initially rejects Nasse's offer, but after acquiring the Wings, he slowly begins to regain his lost hope. However, Nasse reveals some shocking information to him... In order to verify the truth, Mirai confronts his aunt who is raising him.

Nasse informs Mirai that he has been chosen to be a "God candidate." Only one out of the thirteen God candidates will be selected to become the next God. Mirai has trouble believing the news at first, but he decides to take the first step towards living a happy life. However, one day, he learns another God candidate died under mysterious circumstances. Furthermore, a new God candidate calling himself "Metropoliman" appears in front of the TV cameras during a bank robbery.

April arrives, and Mirai is now a high school student. He heads to school on the day of his entrance ceremony, where he sees an angel flying overhead... and is shot by his childhood friend Saki Hanakago's Red Arrow of love. Having fallen for Revel, the angel's trick, Mirai is willing to give his own life to protect Saki. He decides to sacrifice himself to take down another God candidate, but... Meanwhile, masked God candidate Metropoliman makes his move, and the situation enters a new phase.

Metropoliman sends a message to the other God candidates through a TV broadcast. He wants the candidates to assemble and discuss who should become the next God. However, God candidates Metro Blue and Metro Yellow who show up to the meeting do not believe Metropoliman's words. A rapidly shifting battle takes place at Jinbo Stadium. In the stands, Mirai and Saki struggle to decide what they should do... When the situation becomes even more desperate, the two are forced to make a difficult decision.

"I couldn't do anything..." With only those feelings of helplessness on their minds, Mirai and Saki leave Jinbo Stadium. It's hard to believe the two of them alone could challenge the overwhelmingly powerful strategist Metropoliman... However, another new God candidate makes contact with Mirai and Saki. His name is Nanato Mukaido. Mukaido tells Mirai and Saki that Metropoliman must not become the next God and proposes taking him on together.

Serial middle school girl murderer Girl A escapes from the facility where she's being held. Mirai's group deduces that in order to lure out other God candidates, Metropoliman gave her Wings and an Arrow so she could escape. Mira despises Metropoliman's willingness to play dirty and do whatever it takes to become the next God. Eventually the first victim is found at the Grand Tower in the city, and the situation rapidly worsens. Mirai's group chooses to act to stop Girl A's murders.
