    All the ratings are highly recommended! Especially the first book. Although it's tagged as horror, the content is more comedic ghost-hunting, and it's not scary at all. No harem, no romance, and from the second chapter onwards it's high-energy from beginning to end. You absolutely must read it! I've read it countless times. Some excerpts include: a ghost knocking on the door in the middle of the night, the protagonist calls the neighbor to open the door, finds money on the street to buy a life, donates it to the donation box, and asks Buddha to resolve the situation, etc. There are countless high-energy scenes, and it's hilarious from beginning to end.
