Amami Hibiki is a girl who can see ghosts and other supernatural phenomena in her surroundings. The stories follow her daily life with both her friends and the otherworldly.

After two episodes I find this to be a really fun, hilarious and adorable show. It's nice change of peace to see a series where ghosts are dealt with by kindess instead of the usual way.

Also yuri is strong in this one.

Only the second episode, and Inoue has already taken Amami to the nurse's office, where there's nobody (living) around. Eruna would be proud

Second episode flows a lot better than the first, so it looks like it should be a solid series

I dunno — the SHAFT-style "Photorealistic backgorunds" + "No one else but the speaking cast around" is causing severe dissonance for me. Not helped by the fact that this IS a comedy show about girls interacting with the supernatural.

Well, that was a change of pace

...How long do you do you think it'll take Narumi and Hibiki to make it official?

I liked this episode, it had drama but it wasn't overdone and it made good use of its setting and characters. It was a change of peace from the more comedic previous episodes but it didn't feel like I was watching another series at all.

But man, those ghost chickens were weird as heck.

[up]I'm sure everyone already knows what good friends they are. waii

I thought she already had the phone.

They sell fertilized eggs? What do you do with them, make balut?

"Something called the internet."

Dead papa/mama drama is a rich anime tradition. If you're an anime, don't become a parent.

Your son's a brat, ma'am.

Cooking isn't girly. You can't make Amami do all the cooking when you get married.

See, you got it your way and now you're bawling.

Those are some really short sunflowers.

Yup, another nice episode.

Loves feel-good animation a whole lot.

Episode the fourth.

Police brother is...something.

You're a cat, what are you doing in the ocean? Snorkels don't even work that way!

Even the beach ghosts ship them.

"Not convincing?"

"Flame Haired Messiah?"

Did she whack people with that?

The answer is yes.

Zombie girl is right. Everyone has embarrassing memories.

Esumi hit a police officer with a wooden sword because he wanted a picture with her.

She was preemptively right to hit him since he sends her stalkery texts now.

If this were any other series, I'd expect Messiah-chan and police bro to start dating after a few years though. :P

Also, food for thought relating to Hibiki and Narumi banging clamshells together:

貝合わせ[kai awase]: In Heian Period, the noble ladies used to enjoy concentration with shells[貝殻], not cards. Those shells used as concentration are most likely clams[はまぐり], and on the other side of the shell, a beautiful picture and a line are painted. But…when this comes to yuri, えっと…その…it is a sex by lesbian. Because…あの…well…clams actually metaphor vagina. So a pair of shell metaphor two vaginas getting combined.

Beach episode! The beach is of cruse haunted.

Esumi is amazing, kicking ass and taking embarrassing names. Kenta's brother is impressed.

Heart shaped clams, how cute.

Next episode, school festival? I wonder what they'll prepare.

So the theme of the latest episode is "Narumi is going to marry Hibiki"...

A Haunted House that's actually scary. Don't see that too often. Hibiki's father isn't a particularly good fit. Quick way to whiten the hair. The shipping is heavy this time. Nice mom. Nice talk between Narumi and Hibiki's dad. Kenta doesn't know when not to joke.

They are lying the yuri thick as hell this episode. Hibki looked really happy there.

Wait, did Hibiki mom knew she would die from childbirth? Is that what she meant by selfishness?

I feel sorry for her dad...It's amazing he hasn't suffered a fatal heart attack yet.

Who picks up a dead pidgeon from the middle of the street? WOW AMAMI'S DAD IS MUCH BETTER THAN THE DAD IN GINGITSUNE WHO FREAKING SMILES WHILE HE TALKS ABOUT TURTLES GETTING SPLATTERED BY CARS.

How is he alive.

I don't know what seeing ghosts has to do with predicting the future.

On second thought, maybe Amami x Inoue isn't such a good ship unless Inoue actually learns to chill.

Kyupink. Pinkbey. Pinkubator there we go.

How did Hibiki's mom die again? If she knew she was going to die from childbirth which is a really dumb Dead Horse Trope by the way, just get a cesarian section for goodness sake. I guess we don't know that that's the case though.

Take the wig off.

They left Yamada behind. What a-holes.

Yeah, the comparison to her dad was not subtle. Like at all. That said, I think all the spirits have got to be blind (or at the very least, myopic) to mistake her for Hibiki because of a bad wig...

It's said that Hibiki has a sixth sense, so that probably just means Psychic Powers in general.

And yes, ED is catchy.

[up] Or she has lots of psychic powers and her sixth sense is just one of them. And that was the only one Hibiki inherited.

Another low-comedy episode. Which is good, since the show is better at drama than comedy

[up]Yeah, okay.

- Hibiki is being possessed by...Esumi???

- Nice dance intro.

- What if she wants to meet the perverted cat?

- And everyone was abducted by aunties.

- I guess she's more like Uehara than Esumi.

- What kind of meeting is that? Girl's got issues.

The drama hitting me gives me a severe Mood Whiplash when watching this.

Not that is bad or anything. Just going from laughing to teary eyed to laughing again can be "Wow."
