Summary:

Mamiya Sakura (Inoue Maria) is sick and tired of ghosts. They just won’t leave her alone since the day she started seeing them after disappearing in the woods many years ago. To date, her powers haven’t really been of much use, though it does help her bond with fellow ghost-spotter Juumonji Tsubasa (Kimura Ryouhei), a childhood friend. That changes when fellow classmate Rokudou Rinne (Ishikawa Kaito) finally starts attending class, entangling Mamiya deeper in the supernatural, where sometimes a little money is involved.

Own opinion:

Look at the art and what comes first into your mind?  Its Inuyasha, right? Well of course you will remember that show because it has the same author and mangaka, and that's the great Takahashi Rumiko. By only watching the PV it already hit you in the nostalgia. So fans of Takahashi (Inuyasha, Ranma 1/2), be sure to check out this adaptation and cross your fingers. If the execution falls flat, at least fans will be able to enjoy the nostalgic feel that is connected to many a fan’s first anime. And also expect some cute romance ^_^
