-p1-
1: Spirit Medium
2(a): One with the power to perceive things such as ghosts, or the spirits of the dead
2(b): The spiritual abilities to do things that normal people can't

-p2-
1: My name is Toritsuka Reita
2: I am a Spirit Medium

-p3-
1: I was born into a temple family that's been around for a very long time
2: but neither my mother nor my father have even an ounce of spiritual power.

-p4-
1: In any case, ever since I was a baby

-p5-
2: I've had the power to see ghosts
---

Page 2

-p1-
1: Ghosts...
2(a): When the dead are unable to find peace, they come back as spirits...
2(b): and when the dead have lingering regrets, they create trouble for the living
sfx: wooooooooooooo

-p2-
1(a): In any case, ghosts are terrifying
1(b): horrible abominations......
2: For some reason, that's the image people have of them

-p3-
1: Sometimes, when I tell people that I can see ghosts...
2: well, half the time no one believes me
3: But when they do believe, they look at me with eyes full of pity

-p4-
1(a): They don't understand the wonders of this power at all
1(b): That it's all just a misunderstanding
2: Hey...

-p5-
ghost: …...... hhh...
1: Ghosts aren't scary at all
sfx: ooooooooooo

-p1-
ghost: Have a nice day... Watch out for cars...
1: In fact, they're actually really nice
sfx: pahh

-p2-
reita: Got it
1: Yes. All ghosts are actually nice.

-p3-
1: People talk about regrets or whatever
2: but ghosts don't have any memories of their living selves

-p4-
1: not to mention, ghosts can't physically interact with anyone or anything
sign: SLOW DOWN watch for pedestrians!
Sfx: vroom

-p5-
1: The most they can do is show up in photographs
2: but even then, they're all shy guys who only barely show themselves

-p6-
1: In other words, ghosts don't have any ill will towards anyone
text: Clearly

-p7-
text: Vaguely
1: It's all just people with a half-assed spiritual sense being scared for no reason

-p8-
1: That's why I don't need any pity

-p9-
1: Rather, people should be jealous...

-p1-
1: Why? Because this ability...
2: is great enough that I could even use it to take over the world...!
sfx: doooooomm

-p2-
1: Do you understand? Let me explain
reita: Ah! Hey you!
Ghost: !
sfx: float float

-p3-

-p1-
text: Oh, but I wouldn't dare think of using this power for evil
text: But since it's a gift bestowed to me by the heavens, of course I'll use it for my own happines

-p2-
1: The same way those blessed with great faces become celebrities, or how people with natural physical ability become athletes. Everyone does it.
2: In fact it would be weirder if I didn't take advantage of this.

-p3-
1: I have a friend who is a PSI user but even though he could do anything in the world, he never uses his powers for his own gain
2(a): He's an absolute idiot
1(b): One day he's going to completely regret never using his powers

-p4-
1(a): But I'm no idiot
1(b): I'll use my abilities to their fullest!
Ghost: Well then, I'll be going now!
Reita: Ah! Wait a sec!

-p5-
1(a): It's nothing important...
1(b): but could I ask you just one more small favor?
Ghost: Sure! What can I do for you?

-p6-
1: Just watch...!
2: Do you see that really cute girl over there?
3: Oh! Yeah I see her
sfx: doooooommm

-p7-
1: This is the power of a spirit medium!!
reita(a): Go take a look and tell me...
reita(b): What color that girl's panties are!! Go! Ghost!!
sfx: baam

-p1-
ghost: Sorry but I can't help you with that
ghost: I can't just disregard that girl's privacy

-p2-
ghost: Well that's how it is

-p3-
1: A ghost...
2: Lectured me on privacy...

-p4-
1: Yes, like I said before... There's no need to fear ghosts, they're all nice guys...
2: That's why they would never lend a hand in any evil schemes...

-p5-
sfx: ring ring ring

-p6-
1: siggh
2: This isn't working out very well...

-p7-
1: If I could at least do that “HAAAH!” thing...
reita: If you don't want to get “HAAAH”d then look at those panties!
Ghost sfx: eek
2: Even though I try so hard to get ghosts to listen to me...

-p1-
1: No... This isn't the extent of my spiritual abilities...
2: In fact, it's thanks to these powers that I've gotten so popular at school!

-p2-
girl1: You see? This is really bad...
Girl2: What should we...
1: Heey! You girls over there!!
sfx: Whoosh!

-p3-
1: I just happen to be free right now....
2: How about I look at your guardian spirits for you!
Sfx: DON

-p4-
1: Yes, whether it's ghosts or spirits, I can see them all!
2: And women just love spiritual things like this

-p5-
1: That's right! Why don't I just use my powers to start a fortune telling service?
Text top: This charm will protect you from evil spirits
text middle: my conscience is totally clean
text: then let's do the exorcism all in one go
text: Alright? Let's begin the ritual
text: okay now take off your clothes...
text: Yes, sensei...
2: That way I can earn money and the girls will come right to me... It's two birds with one stone
3: Um... no that's...

-p6-
girl1(a): You already looked at ours before...
girl1(b): So we don't... y'know?
Girl2: Oh! How about you try it!? Go on!
Girl3: ehh.... Sounds boring...

Sfx: chatter chatter
4: Guardian Spirit-kun!
Reita(a): Um... It's Toritsuka...
reita(b): No one even remembers my name?

-p4-
1: I do have a plan
2: I'll ask the ghosts!

-p5-
1: Yes. This wonderful spiritual power even demonstrates is greatness by making it easy to find missing objects

1: Heheheh...!
sfx: step step step step step

-p2-
1: With abilities like this, I could even make it as a detective
2(a): I never thought I would find a clue this quickly...!
2(b): and who would've thought that this wasn't a case of missing items, but a case of theft...!

-p3-
1: Missing stuff is one thing, but thievery is on a whole other level!

2: There's a crazy scary psychic who can see through anything

-p2-
reita: plus... even I couldn't...

-p3-
1: I couldn't let this sort of thing happen... Not to you...
2: Not to person you're trying so desperately to protect!

-p4-

ghost(a): Thanks for taking the fall for me in the end
ghost(b): I guess your life's kind of a disaster too huh...
2: This power... Is really no good after all... To hell with spiritual abilities...

-p6-
1: These powers are absolutely useless...
ghost(a):W-Well cheer up! Just this once, I went and took a look for you...!
ghost(b): The black haired girl was wearing light-pink lacy panties, and the girl on the right had light green ones... haha... Will you forgive me with this…?
