I’m sad the official translation and scanlations were dropped. It’s a fun episodic series with an old-timey charm. Each chapter is a standalone mystery/supernatural case solved by the main character, Oyou the Urameshiya. The bigger story that connects the series together is a progressing friendship / slowburn romance between Oyou and her sex friend Saji. I really appreciated the mutual respect in their relationship.

Most of the stories have unexpected twists at the end, and some are quite touching (like chapter 7, where Oyou and Saji spend the night together with an elderly couple and tell one hundred ghost stories). The first two chapters, however, are quite erotic. The second one, where Oyou treats a case of vagina dentata, is pretty much explicit. Well, the shock value definitely is there. I enjoyed the later chapters much more, since they have no graphic sex scenes as far as I remember.

1. Horrible art. I'd understand if it was published in something like 196x but certainly not the 21 century.
2. Average story. It's interesting, but all in all nothing too special.
3. Dislikable characters that aren't exactly close to attractive. A very average guy, not by looks or brain but by personality. The kind of average that makes you detest him. Easily able to betray his women-type. The kind that usually plays the evil act, the small minion who no one remembers, going back and forth betraying ppl. Lol well that's the image I get.

Every ghost related manga is going to be pitted against Hyakki Yakoushou but this one isn't Hyakki Yakoushou.This is Hyakki Yakoushou with romance XD Let me warn you though don't let the bad pacing and sex scene at the beginning fool you, lets just say it was a way for the mangaka to start the story. I was so glad to have picked this up again after dropping it D=
