Kashiwagi Sora is living a normal high school student life when his "adventurer" father sends him a mummy from his travels in Egypt. Sora is initially taken aback by his father's letter, which reads, "I found a cool mummy, so I decided to leave it with you, son!" However, the mummy that emerges from inside the large coffin is only 12 centimeters tall—small enough to fit in the palm of his hand. Not only that, but it is shy, a crybaby, and, most of all, incredibly cute. Sora ends up keeping the mummy and names his new little companion "Mii-kun." But living with a mummy might be easier said than done.
