If you’ve managed to stumble onto this anime then don’t gloss over it. Sit down and watch it. This show is genuinely hilarious but still knows how to take itself seriously. From the moment he called his mother an ‘old hag’ I found myself laughing out loud and knew I was in for some damn good content (and it sure didn’t disappoint). The show itself is somewhat episodic (similar to Hell Girl or Mushishi). And while this works really well it can start to wear on you. About halfway through I was beginning to feel the effects of the repetitive nature that comes with episodic contentthough to my delight it didn’t take long for this to be corrected. Gradually the stories start expanding in size, developing more descriptive plot lines and running over multiple episodes (the longest story running for around 4 episodes).

We do have to talk about the OP though. It was unexpected to say the least… The Backstreet Boys, like what? Ahaha…. Though I didn’t dislike it at all, I found myself watching it each episode instead of skipping past it like I would have with most other shows.

Oh and prepare yourself for loss, this show is about a boy who can see ghosts so death is a natural component.
