content
The student Yakumo Saitō was born with a special ability: his red left eye gives him the ability to see ghosts. Although this is often a burden for him, he has accepted it as his task to redeem the souls and to help them to find their rest. By talking to the spirits, Yakumo wants to find out why they are among the living and thus help them.
Yakumo usually hides his red eye behind a contact lens and has little contact with others. When fellow student Haruka Ozawa asks him to take care of a girlfriend who is obsessed, Yakumo is faced with more and more supernatural challenges.
