Synopsis

Rumors of the supernatural overrun Kamome Academy, namely the "Seven Mysteries." One of these mysteries is the legend of Hanako-san, the ghost of a young girl residing in the girl's bathroom on the third floor of the old school building, who is said to grant any wish her summoner desires. First-year high school student Nene Yashiro daringly summons Hanako-san in desperate need of love, but the Hanako that appears before her is a boy!

After Hanako-kun claims that he has no magical items of use, Nene tries various ways to get noticed by her crush. With her desperation reaching its peak, she gets into trouble after consuming a mermaid scale, which turns her into a fish. Hanako-kun rescues her, binding their fates together in the process; in return for this aid, Nene must become his assistant. Now entangled in the supernatural realm, Nene soon discovers that there's much more to the school's Seven Mysteries than basic rumors.

I see a lot of reviews on opposite sides of the scale. It feels like people are either extremely harsh or extremely in love with it. I enjoy the series personally but i'd like to be fair.

Characters 7/10
I do agree with people in saying some characters lack depth in terms of issues and just overall info on said character. I think Nene is enjoyable in the sense of a hopeless romantic due to me knowing people like that. The leg jokes are a bit repetitive and sometimes annoying. I do feel like character development for some important characters doesn't exist and that the ...

Story 2/10

Pretty generic. If you've read other supernatural manga then you've read this one already. It paints itself as being dark and gloomy but in the end it's as lighthearted and DBZ.

Art 10/10

Holy f this manga is on the level of ther masterpieces like Oyasumi Punpun. While it does not delve into realism, it's typical manga style is seasoned with a style that is more stylized.

I fail to see why it matters that he's the 'hanako of the toilet'. Most of the scene don't even have anything to do with the toilet. He could be the Bethoven of the music room or Ninomiya Kinjiro statue for F sake it still do not affect the story whatsoever. His weapon of choice don't even related to toilet. Just imagine a boy in bethoven clothing wielding a knive fighting evil spirit, the story do not change much even if you change hanako with bethoven. Even when his past is revealed, there's really no strong connection of him being hanako. Considering he want to ...
