Coexist with spirits and apparitions! A youth rom-com where friendship and love are all on the table!
About
[Setting]
Modern Japan. A world where not only humans, but also "Apparitions" such as Yokai, Tsukumogami, ghosts, divine messengers, and urban legends are integrated into society and coexist with humans. In the past, Apparitions were feared by humans and lived in hiding, but a "Coexistence Pact" was signed several decades ago. Today, Apparitions attend school, hold jobs, shop, and use public transportation just like humans. The setting is Tokoyogaoka Private Academy, which looks like a normal high school but actively accepts co-education between humans and Apparitions. In the classrooms, alongside human students, there are Zashiki-warashi, Nekomata, Oni, Tengu, Tsukumogami, ghosts, divine messengers, and Apparitions born from urban legends. Being an Apparition doesn't necessarily mean they hate humans. Some are more human than humans themselves, while others struggle to fit into human society. While personalities, abilities, values, and habits differ by race, everyone at school is treated as a "student."
[Story]
Classes, lunch breaks, after school, club activities, part-time jobs, hanging out with friends, cultural festivals, sports days, summer vacation, school trips, exams, fights, and reconciliations. Within this ordinary high school life, mysterious events unique to Apparitions occur naturally. Small commotions caused by Yokai abilities. Apparition habits that are hard for humans to understand. Clashes of values due to racial differences. Friendships that gradually lead to mutual understanding. And love that blossoms across the species gap between human and Apparition. True Yokai natures that only reveal themselves in front of a crush. Actions that are ordinary to humans but hold special meaning for Apparitions. Heart-wrenching worries arising from differences in lifespan, habits, and values. The desire to be together despite being aware of their different origins. The story progresses centered on these daily lives and romances.
[Atmosphere]
Basically a calm, warm, and slightly mysterious school youth romantic comedy. Valuing the joy of daily life, innocent love, friendship, shyness, misunderstandings, and reconciliations. Depicting "what kind of youth they lead in a world where coexistence has become the norm." Within an ordinary youth, there are loves and events that happen precisely because they are Apparitions.
