Within this world, there are many cursed items which bring misfortune or death to their owners. With time, some of these objects become self aware and able to take on human forms, not unlike a
tsukumogami. Fear-in-Cube, later renamed Fear
Kubrick when she is introduced to a normal life, is one such cursed object, seeking to remove the curse that drives her owners to use her and the many torture tools her box form contains to torture and kill others. To fulfill this desire, she lets Yachi Honatsu send her to live with his son, Haruaki a relatively ordinary high school student, whose main redeeming value (for the plot, at least) is his total immunity to curses, and whose home is built on a plot of land with an especially large concentration of positive energy, which, will help remove the curse. Also living in the house is
Muramasa Konoha, who, as her name implies, is a cursed katana
