This is a cute and heartwarming story! Along the story there are moments when I just have to wonder if things will work out for Hotate and her companions as the story shifts from light-heart to heavy-heart, and vice versa. Some parts makes me laugh, love, and cry for those touching scenes!
Seeing little Hotate trying to understand the interactions between the living and the dead spirits are moving. Such an adorable girl, I just love her. :] Although the story is mostly told from Hotate's perspective, Zenjirou does play an important role as he guide her through her new life in the countryside.
