Yukiteru Amano is a timid middle school student who habitually records everything he does in his daily life on his phone—a digital diary. At school, he has no friends, but he is often seen talking to his supposed imaginary companions: Deus Ex Machina, the god of time and space, and Deus' servant, Mur Mur. One morning, Yukiteru wakes up to find that certain events of his day are already appearing on his cellphone ahead of time. At first he dismisses it as coincidence, but he slowly realizes that the incidents written on his phone actually occur in the near future. After benefiting from this new ability throughout the day, he discovers that his classmate Yuno Gasai owns a similar diary. When the two team up to fend off a strange pursuer and return home, Deus Ex Machina reveals that they—along with ten other participants—have been forced into a survival game where the winner becomes the deity's successor. Left with no other choice, Yukiteru and Yuno must rely on their phones, now called "Future Diaries," to survive this merciless battle royale.

After death, either Heaven or Hell awaits most humans. But for a select few, death brings them to Quindecim—a bar where only pairs of people who die at the same time can enter. Attending the bar is an enigmatic figure known as Decim, who also acts as the arbiter. He passes judgment on those who wind up at Quindecim by challenging them to a life-threatening game. These games determine if the patron's soul will reincarnate into a new life, or be sent into the void, never to be seen again. From darts and bowling to fighting games, the true nature of each patron slowly comes to light as they wager their souls. Though his methods remain unchanged, the sudden appearance of a black-haired amnesiac causes Decim to reevaluate his own rulings.

Enter Yumeko Jabami, a seemingly innocent and attractive transfer student eager to participate in Hyakkaou's distinctive program. Unlike others, she does not gamble to win—she seeks the sheer excitement of the bet, and her almost insane approach to gambling may introduce unpredictable elements to the school's power dynamics.

Humans once lived like Earth was the center of the universe. Some people embraced religion and believed that God would deliver them from suffering. After humanity was enslaved by aliens, no one spoke of God any longer. Now the grim truth is that humans are mere property of aliens. Recently, entering pet humans into the entertainment industry has become popular, and the biggest, most thrilling spectacle is known as Alien Stage. In this reality singing competition, alien sponsors flaunt their investments, while human contestants must battle to survive. No matter the relationship between opponents—whether it is love, hate, or something more extreme—only one victor can emerge each round.
