    Synopsis:

    The series follows Kiitarou, a young boy unusually sensitive to the spirit world. After an incident that leads to his expulsion from his home, he finds refuge with a zashiki warashi named Suzu in a secluded dwelling. Their peaceful existence is quickly disrupted as they become a focal point for a variety of youkai – supernatural entities drawn to Kiitarou’s spiritual affinity.

    Each episode presents encounters with creatures rooted in Japanese folklore, from deceptive wall spirits to those manifested as unsettling eyes within paper. The narrative unfolds as a gentle exploration of these interactions, highlighting the delicate balance between the human and spirit realms. The story offers a contemplative look at acceptance and finding belonging amidst the strange and unfamiliar, emphasizing observation and understanding over confrontation. It's a series that prioritizes atmosphere and character dynamics over high-action sequences, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a world where the mundane and supernatural coexist.
