Original creator (manga): Midori Endou
Director: Yoshimasa Hiraike
Character Design: Miwa Oshima
Animation Production: TMS Entertainment
Plot summary: The supernatural comedy centers around a young girl named Kohina Ichimatsu, a little girl who summons a Kokkuri-san, a lower-ranking ghost in Japanese folklore. The Kokkuri-san she calls ends up being a white-haired handsome, young man. Although he had intended to merely haunt her at first, he becomes worried about her terrible eating habit of cup ramen for every meal, so he decides to haunt her in order to protect her. To complicate matters, Kohina's doting dog spirit, Inugami, and no-good tanuki, Shigaraki, join them.

There was an announcement on this a while back, surprised it just made it on here. Maybe because it's a 4-koma? It'll be a nice lighthearted comedy, assuming it doesn't flop in the comedic aspect. Looking forward to adding a fun humor fix to my line-up this fall.

I wonder if this will be full length eps? For some reason I assumed it would be a short anime series, but now that I look around for info I don't see anything confirming that. Wonder if I just assumed it would be? Strange....

I assumed that it would be something like Hoozuki, but something like Chi's Sweet Home would probably work too... Although, I did check out the first chapter, and it seems like with some good directing, full length eps should be possible. Can't say much about future chapters though.

The broadcasting schedule on Moon Phase confirms this is going to be a full-length series.

I think I read 1 or 2 chapters of the manga for this adaptation before. Was kinda meh but I'm hoping this will have some decent humor.

Patriot's Blade · 2014-09-15, 04:40

so let me get this, it revolves around three supernatural bishounens surrounding a dangerously adorable loli, wait that does not sound right, don't call the cops...... or Ghost Busters cops.......

White Manju Bun · 2014-09-15, 12:45

Ok Kokkuri-san alone is OnoD (and hawt) so I was in, looking further into the seiyuu cast...IM SO IN!

LKK · 2014-09-15, 13:26

Second PV. This time narrated by Takahiro Sakurai.

I rather thought you might say something like that when you noticed it.

Well, not specifically for the same reason, but count me in as curious to see what they will do with this one....

PreSage · 2014-09-15, 18:45

I jumped on the bandwagon as soon as I saw the Tomoe look alike (Kokkuri-san). But now with OnoD as his seiyuu aaaannnnddd TakaSaku!!!!! I'ma divin' in full speed!

(...I keep getting Handa image in my head while listening to the 1st PV with OnoD narrative. Half expected Naru to jump in.

White Manju Bun · 2014-09-22, 14:26

Third TV spot.

Cloudedmind · 2014-10-01, 18:22

Crunchyroll streaming this Sunday's starting October 5th. Source

BPD Renegade · 2014-10-01, 23:21

Glad Crunchyroll got this one. Ironically, I was in the middle of making cup ramen when I saw the news.

AntonKutovoi · 2014-10-05, 15:39

That was a nice one. So far the best comedy show of the season.

Although I'm a bit disappointed - when I heard that Jouji Nakata is going to be in opening, I thought that he is going to sing as well (he is far from being a bad singer, he should do it more often), but all he got was speaking and shouting parts.

Spoiler for plot:

kuromitsu · 2014-10-05, 15:58

Episode 1

Yep, just as silly as I had hoped it to be, and more! It made me laugh, it made me go 'awww', and then there was the ending which is the best of the season so far.

Stark700 · 2014-10-05, 16:27

Does that guy remind anyone of Tomoe from Kamisama Kiss?

Freeter · 2014-10-05, 16:41

Is the guy playing Kokkuri the same as the one who was sensei in Barakamon? If so, he sure has a knack for roles of being harassed by little girls

ookamigirl Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2011	#1 Spoiler for plot: The fox sure is nice looking ^^ Reminds me of Tomoe from Kamisama Hajimemashita. That fox sure had some parental feels for the girl. Her situation sure is a sad and lonely one. Fox got attached with lightning speed. This one is pretty amusing. Indecisive about it.. __________________ My Blog --> ookami
