What is “Natsume Yujincho”?
Author Yuki Midorikawa
Post magazine Hakusensha “LaLa / LaLa DX”
Number of volumes 27 volumes already published (as of September 2021)
Takashi Natsume, the main character who has seen Ayakashi (youkai) since he was a child
His parents died early and he was moving from one relative’s house to another
I was always alone because I could see the youkai and there was a distance from the people around me.
One day, he finds an old booklet with a piece of paper that says “Friends Book” in his grandmother’s relics.
Friends Book was a contract that collected the names that his grandmother Reiko stole from the youkai.
Since then, Natsume, who has been targeted by youkai, spends her days returning her name to the youkai with her bouncer, Nyanko-sensei (Madara).
I came to live with the Fujiwara family, a distant relative in a certain countryside.
That place was once where her Natsume’s grandmother Reiko lived.
Natsume creates “important things” while interacting with family, friends, and Ayakashi (youkai).
A work that allows you to know what it is to meet
Every episode is full of kindness
The kindness of people, the fragility and kindness of Ayakashi (youkai)
It is the work of the more there are many also talk that would out tears
Many people said that they learned about this manga by watching anime.
It’s a work I would recommend to cat lovers
Some people are crazy about the cuteness of Nyanko-sensei (Madara).
There is no doubt that it is a work that changes the image of youkai so far.
When you want to touch a gentle feeling
There is no doubt that you will choose this work
I want you to watch anime if you can
It’s different from the touch of a cartoon picture, so ✿
