Synopsis
Weak spirit-talker Hiroto has one year before his powerful stepsister Rei kills him—until a spirit reveals his true power.
In an era where one in every twenty people has awoken to a "special ability," Hiroto Takigami is a weak ability user who can only communicate with spirits. However, for some reason, his stepsister Rei, the most powerful ability user, harbors deep hatred toward him. The moment he graduates from an ability training institution and gains full control over his power, Rei will kill him. He only has one year left to live. That's when a spirit appears before a despairing Hiroto and reveals an unexpected secret about his ability... An unprecedented supernatural "body takeover" battle begins!

- 7 “A genuine sleeper hit. The story starts off with the main character, Takigami Hiroto being threatened by his older step-sister that she'll kill him once he graduates with him not understanding why....”
- 2 “What would you do if a friend recommends you a hotel and all of a sudden its a brothel?! I at least would stare for a moment and then get the f*ck out. Thats kinda what happened to me with this...”
- 6 “6.8/10 It's alright... I honestly had my hopes up past the fifth chapter since the manga didn't shove forced sex scenes down the readers' throats, but this manga failed to create anything...”
