It feels like I’ve been reading a bunch of manga in the mystery genre fairly consistently.
This one is about a guy with a special red eye that allows him to see ghosts. He assists a girl that keeps coming to him for help in solving mystery cases. It’s quite short with only 9 chapters; I would definitely love to see more.

This looks interesting. I love supernatural anime about ghosts and such.

@Yi: Same here, especially if it involves mysteries such as Ghost Hunt.
@Snark: He’s born with an advantage, can’t help using it. =D

You know, this reallllllly reminds me of Death Note, probably because of the mystery factor. Light had insane genius powers and a notebook of L337ness. I feel like this should be adapted to a show. If it gets turned into a sweet show by the same people who made DeathNote (unfortunately I CAN’T remember), remember that FaS called it lol.

Hm, although they both have a supernatural aspect to them, I don’t think they’re that similar. Lots of manga are being turned into anime, it’ll certainly be interesting to see this one be animated.
