- Synopsis
- Grief-stricken after the accidental death of his girlfriend Sayuri, Kengo meets an eccentric high school girl named Umika. Her father, Tetsushi, a shaman, enables Kengo to see Sayuri's spirit, and he begins to live together with Sayuri again. Sayuri is cute. Even though she is a ghost, she is not at all scary. On the contrary, she enthusiastically teaches him her recipes, so he becomes such a good cook that he can now recreate her taste. He is unable to grasp his dreams of music and the spirit of his lover, even though he can see them so clearly. He was still happy in spite of such itchy days. One day, a so-called love triangle occurs when Umika, the shaman's daughter, confesses that she likes Kengo. However, Umika has a bad taste to exorcise any kind of spirit, whether it is an evil spirit or a kind-hearted one.
