Mieruko-chan

A manga about a high school girl who has to ignore evil spirits she can see to avoid being attacked.

We’ve discussed this on a recent episode.

This series is a bit one-note but otherwise fun manga. Tomoki Izumi does a really decent job drawing creepy spirits. It helps accentuate titular Mieruko-chan‘s plight of pretending she doesn’t see the horrors around her. There’s even some more touching moments between her family that seems to be a good story hook. I’m not immediately reaching for the next volume of this series but I know I’ll enjoy it when I do.|

There’s currently an anime running right now but I was disappointed how they seem to be leaning heavily on fan service. I’ll stick with the manga.

Available in English from Yen Press.
