A Hundred Ghosts Roam by Day

High school student Cheng Luo has just moved to the countryside with his parents when, not long after starting school, he encounters a procession of a hundred ghosts. It seems only he can see them. After that, he discovers that monsters wander around during the day, too, and that human misunderstandings trouble them as well. “They’re all good monsters, really.” Cheng Luo’s new deskmate is Yun Yi, the lord of a hundred ghosts. As Cheng Luo spends time with all sorts of monsters, he gradually uncovers the story behind Yun Yi.

Snow Woman: Big Brother Cheng Luo, come build a snowman with me.

Headless Ghost: Cheng Luo, guess where I hid my head.

Puppeteer: Cheng Luo, does this new puppet I made look like you?

Rain-Bringing Little Monk: #%

Lady with the Child: Cheng Luo, how about becoming my child? Granny promises to feed you until you’re nice and plump.

Kappa: Cheng Luo, the plate on my head is missing. Boohoohoo.

Tengu: I’ll take you flying, Cheng Luo. I’ll take you flying.

Blue-Robed Monk: Wooden fish. I’m off to tap the wooden fish.

Nine-Tailed Fox: Big Sister Yun Yi looked at me an extra time today, didn’t she?

Shuten Doji: Shut up.

Yun Yi: You’re so noisy. All of you are so noisy.

Cheng Luo: ?

Cheng Luo: Is it possible that I’m actually a human?

Theme: When a hundred ghosts rule the streets, see no evil and hear no evil. When a hundred ghosts roam by day, remember to take the long way around and keep your mouth shut. When a hundred ghosts parade at night, it’s the night of the full moon, the night of the procession.
