Believe it or not, the world is
filled with strange phenomena

that science is yet to explain.

And when people come face to face with them,

they are helplessly thrown
into the dark depths of fear.

But there are those who fight every day

to shine a ray of hope
into that chaotic darkness.

People call them...

Yokai hunters!

Yokai Hunters

This is the city...

The city with the Divine Tree that
was featured on that talk show.

Now, then...

Who knows what monstrosities await?

Cultural Fair
Haunted House Job List

Props | Music | Shopping
Costumes | Backgrounds | Signs

Who doesn't have a job yet?

Well, if you don't have any preferences...

Niido-kun, Sagure-kun,
Kageyama-kun, and Inukawa-kun,

you'll be in charge of the costumes.

That sucks!

Niido | Sagure | Kageyama | Inukawa | Costumes

The costumes will be the key to
success with this haunted house,

so make sure you give it your all.

Can't we just use sheets?

Can't we just put white sheets over our
heads and go, "We're spooky ghosts"?

Yeah! Then we don't have
to bother making anything.

Niido... You're just...

an absolute genius!

Isn't this great, Mob? We won't
be stuck in sewing hell now!

Er, is that really okay, though?

We're just going to give the people
playing ghosts white cloths?

Since we're in charge of costumes,
shouldn't we be doing a little bit more?

What the hell, Kageyama?

Then are you able to make anything
or come up with any ideas?

If you can, then tell us.

Buh, buh, buh, buh...

Buh buh buh buh

I don't hear anything, do you?

Student Council Office

Anyone handling food at the cultural
fair will need a fecal exam done,

so make sure you let the
class reps know that.

Sir.

What is it, Kageyama-kun?

I think the things we're doing
this year are a bit extreme.

Salt Middle School Booth or Event by Class
Class | Booth or Event
- | Takoyaki Booth
- | Concert Venue
- | Cross-dressing Café
- |Mosaic Art
- | Haunted House
- | Play"Romeo and Princess Kaguya"
- | Pancakes Booth
- | Stained Glass Exhibit
- | Dance
- | Balloon Art
- | Okonomiyaki Booth
- | Chocolate Bananas Booth

The concert venue is definitely going to
cause a noise issue with the neighborhood.

Not to mention...

A cross-dressing café?!

Student Council

This is the cultural fair, so we should
have everyone dress more conservatively!

Confirmation of after-school activities forms
Confirm with each club

O/X Student Council Meeting

I think that's fine,
as long as everyone's safe.

Wha—

I agree, but just in case,
let's remind everyone again.

Is everyone okay with that?

Yes...

And so time passed,

and right about when there were only
two weeks until the cultural fair...

Preparations have been going smoothly...

and at this rate, that's not good.

So you want to go here? That seems sudden.

I'm thinking about redoing
my compulsory education.

It's a night school,

He's trying to improve himself, huh?

Sounds good.

Why don't you give it a try?

Th-Thank you very much!

Well, I've got Mob, so we'll figure it out.

Reception

As for Dimple...
I haven't seen him around lately.

Spirits and Such Consultation Office

I should've put a leash on him.

Hullo! I am the yokai hunter Amakusa Haruaki!

Yokai Hunter

Amakusa Haruaki

Mama, look at that guy.

That's what I'll say as I go in.

Stop staring.

Why?

Hullo! I am...

Hullo! My name is Amakusa...

Okay!

Huwwo!

H-Hullo! My nyame is Amakusa Haruaki!

Can I help you?

My mission is... Oh, right, since I'm here...

I can say that I hunt those
who writhe in the shadows...

The reason I came to this city is to
stop "the incident" before it can start.

I didn't understand % of what he just said.

I'm terribly sorry, but I have an appointment
with a client who's ordered an exorcism.

Would you mind waiting outside?

I'm probably the last person who should
say this, but he sure was unique...

He's being questioned by the police.

Yeah, he's gonna get taken to the station.

Spirits and Such Consultation Office
hours
later

Sensei! Thank you so much!

Let's go ahead and take a break.

Oh, sure.

Are you free now?

It's me, Amakusa Haruaki.

So they didn't take him away...

Now, then...

Let us discuss the... dark army.

So not those who writhe in the shadows?

They have more than one name.

You should also not mention them so casually.

You will fall prey.

The vortex of madness
is definitely spreading.

In order for us to break free
from this cycle of sadness,

I implore that you assist me.

Um... I'm sorry. You may be a client,
but I don't quite understand...

I am not a client.

Huh?

I am the one who, er...
hide in the... darkness...

Um...

I am the one who hunts the evil
that hides in the darkness!

I am the yokai hunter Amakusa Haruaki!

Shut up!

It's annoying as hell trying to hear
you fit in all of these buzz words!

B-But I'm not...

Stop finding gratification from picking the most
confusing phrasing each time, you dumbass!

I don't have time to listen to your nonsense!

If you don't hurry up and tell
me what you want or leave,

I'm gonna rip off them
side buns in your hair!

A-All right...

In this world, there abound evil yokai who
thr*aten the peaceful lives of the masses.

I, Amakusa Haruaki, am a yokai hunter

who rends these yokai forevermore.

I traveled to Seasoning City
for I sensed the presence of yokai here.

I am currently after the evil yokai
horde, the Hundred Demons.

Their goal is the resurrection
of the Great Yokai King,

so they are preparing to steal
away as much energy as possible.

At some point, he just
started speaking normally.

It was probably too difficult.

This ominous presence grows greater
by the day, and I am panicking.

Why not talk to the police about this?

The police are bad news.

They will immediately try to use

the Firearms and Swords Control Act
against me and try to capture me!

The Firearms and Swords
Control Act

Violation

Well, of course they will.

A-Anyway, I would like for your
aid in slaying the Hundred—

You can't be serious!

I don't have time for any more of your games.

I'm trying to run a business here!

Go on, scram already.

Oh, will you help me if I
pay you a consultation fee?

Will a million yen be enough?

You really think you can fool
me with this writing pad?

Ten Thousand Yen

Th-They're real?!

My parents are rather wealthy
and support my lifestyle.

All right, Serizawa. Let's go!

Huh?

We're goin' Hundred Demons hunting!

If the Great Yokai King is resurrected,
this world will fall into darkness!

Madness

We must vanquish the vortex of madness...

And break free from this cycle of sadness!

Y-Yes, sir!

Wow, I'm so happy... I've made friend.

Yokai hunters are forever alone.

I have been fighting solo this whole time.

This is the first time I've experienced
kindness from another in a very long while.

I thank you.

Hey, Mob. What's up?

Oh, pardon me. I was hoping
I could talk to you, Master.

Sure, right after we finish this job.

You're coming with us.

What are we doing?

We're slaying yokai!

We're gonna break free from
this cycle of sadness.

Right...

My apologies, boy.
This is an emergency.

Women and children should stay behind.

Spirits and Such Consultation Office

Don't worry. Mob will be fine.

Another dud.

This guy better not just
be some random cosplayer.

Though I guess I don't care
as long as I get paid.

There!

I sense a very faint presence
of a demonic aura from there!

Hey, we had a job to exorcise an evil spirit
from this abandoned building before.

We've still got a lot to prepare...

The evil spirit did disappear, didn't it?

We don't have much time.

There's only two weeks left...

for the costumes and sewing...

I do actually sense some
weird energy from there.

I see.

Welp, let's go.

Come to think of it, what is our
costume making budget?

This is the place...
There's no doubt about it!

Progress Toward Mob's expl*si*n: %

Mob Psycho

Mob Psycho

The atmosphere in here has transformed.

The yokai must be behind this.

Curse you, Hundred Demons. They must
be plotting to make this their lair.

Are there really yokai here?

Was this guy not just some cosplayer?

The roots of some plant?

What's wrong, Amakusa?
You're sweating b*ll*ts.

Well, you see...

I only have experience
fighting yokai one-on-one.

And every time,
it's a life-and-death situation.

Even against solo yokai, I made sure
to prepare as much as possible,

and was able to slay them...
after three days and three nights.

But this time...

We are in the lair of the Hundred
Demons yokai horde, which means...

What's wrong?!

This wall's all slimy!

Maybe if we hang some konjac
up, it'll scare people!

Wha—

What's wrong?!

The path we came from is—

It's been closed off.

I guess we'll have to take down
whatever's messing up this area.

You seem calm about this, Serizawa.

Oh, I tend to feel more relaxed
in dark, confined spaces.

We can use cardboard and duct tape...

We'll have to measure the height
of the people playing the ghosts.

Anyway, we'll just have
to keep moving forward.

Hope you're prepared, yokai hunter.

My stomach feels all stabby...

Reigen, behind you!

So you've shown yourself, yokai!

Something or other, something
or other, O some kind of spirit!

Holy Blade Kusanagi-no-Dai-Hannya-Kagemitsu

(Tax Included)

Give me strength!

Holy Blade!
Kusanagi-no-Dai-
Hannya-Kagemitsu

Holy Blade! Kusanagi-no-Dai-Hannya-Kagemitsu!

My holy blade!

Ah... so it's basically
like a normal exorcism.

What on earth is that power?

Now there're tons of them!

They're all coming at once!

We're in so much danger that my
brain has stopped functioning...

I'm going to use salt to weaken them.

The rest is up to you, Serizawa and Mob!

Yes, sir!

Take this!

Salt Splash!

Oh, maybe we could use purified
salt for something fun.

I see...

If we can defeat the ghosts,
the kids might enjoy that.

Th-That's...

The four generals of the Hundred Demons!

And behind them... is the Great Yokai King!

He's already been brought
back to this realm?!

Foolish humans...

They are the four generals
of the Hundred Demons.

They will cast you all into
the deepest depths of despair.

W-We're done for...

Huh?

I'm sorry for dragging you into this...

Well, if we're in that much trouble,
let's make a break for it.

I don't think that's possible, actually.

True. I don't think I have enough
creativity to design that...

They took two down instantly?
Just who are those two?

They're psychics.

Incredible power like that
exists in this world...?

I'm so envious.

You'd think it's worth
being envious of, right?

But to them, apparently,
it's not incredible at all.

Not only have you defeated my Hundred Demons,

you've defeated my four generals...

Not bad, humans...

But...

don't believe for a second...

that you can defeat the Great Yokai King!

Y-You two are so powerful...

Any interest in becoming yokai hunters?

Of course, I'll make sure
you're paid every month.

What?! Hey, you two—

Yeah, I don't think so. I want to study.

I'm sorry.

My head is currently full of thoughts
concerning the cultural fair.

Cultural fair...?

Heh. Too bad for you.

They're too busy trying
to live their daily lives.

Amakusa...

If you think you can use your
money to win over everyone,

you're gravely mistaken!

Reigen, my apologies!

You believed what I had to say as a friend,

and yet, I tried to buy your help with money!

Please forgive my foolishness!

Er, hey, wait!

I'm absolutely okay with
getting a consultation fee—

I see. I'm glad you understand.

Reigen... I thank you from
the bottom of my heart.

You know, this is a rather freaky design.

I wonder if I could stuff this and sell it...

Huh?

Well, it is an ayakashi.

It will eventually turn into ash.

Oh, really.

That's it!

That guy was a real yokai hunter, huh?

I guess there are all kinds
of jobs in the world.

Why don't we grab some ramen and head home?

Oh, I actually have something to do.

Hm? Wait, what did you want to talk about?

It's okay. I figured it out.

Please excuse me.

Mob solved something on his own...

Inukawa-kun.

I got an idea for the costumes,

so could you come to class
early tomorrow morning?

Huh?! Didn't we decide
on the white sheets?

No. We need to do everything we can.

Great Yokai King

Everyone else is doing their own job, too.

Great Yokai King

Just xx days until the fair!

Let's do our best!!
