Synopsis:

Sakurashin exists as a nexus point between the human and youkai realms, a consequence of a long-ago dimensional overlap. The city’s stability relies on the delicate balance maintained by the Seven Pillars and the efforts of the Hiizumi Life Counseling Office. This office, a diverse group dedicated to fostering peaceful coexistence, includes individuals with unique abilities – mind-reading, item manifestation, and the power to suppress supernatural outbursts known as Strikes.

The office members navigate daily life assisting both humans and youkai while contending with escalating threats. A growing number of Strikes, coupled with political intrigue and malicious actors targeting Sakurashin, strain the office's resources and test their resolve. The series explores themes of integration, responsibility, and the challenges of preserving harmony in a world where boundaries are increasingly blurred. It presents a slice-of-life narrative interwoven with supernatural elements, examining the human side of interdimensional relations.
