In 1997 an unusual meteorite lands in a lake in Japan. Twenty years later 17 year old megane-ko Chinami Ebihara leads a very, very low tech life, particularly when you consider that her dad is a techie and her mom an executive. But Chinami has none of the "necessities of life" - no cell phone, no pc, no smart cards - nothing electronic. This is because Chinami "interacts" at short distances with any electronic equipment, causing it to malfunction.
Chinami and her parents have kept this a secret, but this has made Chinami a very nervously self-conscious girl who tries her best to stay away from electronics and has developed a habit of apologizing to anyone very quickly. But Chinami lives in a Japanese city in a Digital World, and there is no way that she can do the "usual" things without interacting in some manner with all of the electronic and electrical infrastructure that is around her at all times.
Chinami transfers schools once again in 2nd year high school and fortunately for her she makes an immediate friend in classmate Keiko Komatsuna who shows her around the school. But problems start as the class techie-freak Kotaro Kannagi develops an interest in Chinami and "in her body".
