Pretty similar to Noragami (which I've only seen the anime of), in both the lore and character types. Well, except the protagonist didn't turn into a half-ghost, but she is now able to see supernatural creatures easier and all that. The setting is different though and also the ages of the characters, I think (they're younger here).

I don't really like the romance parts, but I do really love the supernatural things/lore. And the art. Not gonna lie, the artstyle of the anime and the manga show more covers (colored pages) were the main reason why I wanted to check this series out.
Even though it's a very popular series, I've never really heard much about the plot, so I didn't really know what I was getting into here. But it's okay. A bit boring at times, but as said, the supernatural beings are my cup of tea.

I would rate this higher, but I really hate how sexist it is and how much it sexualizes girls. Not surprised about that, of course, but it's very annoying to read through that sometimes. Especially when the character itself sexualizes themselves.
Series like these have so much fan-service, without needing it to be. Plot- and lore-wise, it wouldn't change a thing, except make it more enjoyable, when you remove the fan-service and the sexism.
It's also hard to ship anyone when everyone's just being a perv.

The Mokkes might be fr the only reason why I'll continue reading. Too cute. show less

Well, now that was a bit more interesting. (I'm referring to Mei's backstory. Every other scenes with Hanako and Tsukasa were just annoying.)

I also hate how Mei's and Hanako's wish got compared, because they totally aren't the same. Wanting to save yourself and wanting to save someone else (by making the decision for themselves and not telling the other person about it) is a different thing. Mei at least wants something good, but Hanako is just being a selfish and arrogant jerk.
I loved it show more when Nene exploded in the first chapter and really got angry at Hanako. Finally some sense got into that girl. show less

1) Well, damn. The twins story really is messed up.
After reading the first chapter of the volume (80th), I thought that the present Tsukasa, is some sort of evil-doppelganger. But it turns out, he’s just a psycho, who loves Amane so much, he’d gladly be killed by him...
But why would Amane kill Tsukasa, if he isn't an evil doppelganger? If he were, it would be logical why their mother also said that he's not her son. Maybe Tsukasa forced him?

1.2) If you think about it, it’s show more actually Kou’s fault for the whole thing. If he hadn’t told child-Tsukasa about what Amane will do, Tsukasa wouldn’t have gone back, so Amane wouldn’t have killed him and probably also wouldn’t have died at 13. As well as not becoming a ghost.
Who knows, maybe he still would’ve died but likely not become a school mystery, right?
So it’s Kou’s fault for the romance between Amane and Nene. show less

A high school girl helps a ghost solve the supernatural mysteries at an eerie old school in this horror/humor manga that is not particularly funny or scary. It has a slapdash feel, like the author made the first chapter hoping but not expecting to be chosen as a regular series and then floundering and course-correcting when it actually happened. The story is dull and unoriginal.

Another problem is the depiction of the characters. They look like elementary school kids but the translated text show more tells us they are middle and high school students. There are some dumb boob jokes in the end make me wonder if the characters were in elementary school in the Japanese version and if the translators are fudging the ages to make humor that sexualizes children more acceptable for an American audience. show less
