Mai Taniyama is supposed to be an ordinary 16 year old high school student... That was until the day she met the young, handsome but narcissistic paranormal researcher, Kazuya 'Naru' Shibuya!! Now, her whole life has changed and she's been dragged along as his part-time assistant, hunting for ghosts!!

People who enjoy talks about ghosts, curses, demons, psychic abilities and other paranormal stuff!! Plus, there's a lot of comedy and hints of romance here and there too!!

How rude and cold Naru can be on the outside but I'm sure somewhere deep down, he actually cares!! Of course, I can't help but love Mai's character!! She's definitely the ying to Naru's yang!! She's his exact opposite after all and it's so fun when they argue!!

The ANIME lacks some 'juicy' details about the deeper story behind why Naru went to Japan and about his real identity too...

Become a psychic!! Although that may be a little impossible!! :( Aside from that, I wanted to try ghost hunting too!!! It sounds like fun even though it can be a bit dangerous... (Especially for a coward like me!! Hahaha)

Happy, sad, excited, thrilled and lots of other wonderful emotions!! It's a really great ANIME!!

Mai Taniyama voiced by Kaori Nazuka, Kazuya Shibuya voiced by Yuuki Tai, Koujo Lin voiced by Ken Narita, Houshou Takigawa voiced by Kenji Hamada, Ayako Matsuzaki voiced by Masami Suzuki, John Brown voiced by Nobuhiko Okamoto, Masako Hara voiced by Rie Kugimiya and Osamu Yasuhara voiced by Kousuke Okano!!

The manga and the anime was based on the novel series created by Fuyumi Ono, called Akuryou Series (Evil Spirits Series). The novel has more detail about Naru's past and his orgin along with the realy identity of his mysterious assistant Lin!! (I haven't read the novel myself but a lot of online friends on a fanfiction site have and they've told me some bits of it!! I really want to find a copy of that novel in English!!)
