About

In the world of modern Japan, there exists a certain industry. To the general public, the invisible—spirits, gods, and ghosts—do not exist. However, for those working in the industry that inevitably deals with them, the reality is quite different, often leading to chronic stomach aches. This is the daily life of the people at a certain shrine who can see and hear what others cannot.

Characters

Chief Priest Matsumoto

Name: Takeru Matsumoto In his 40s. At first glance, he seems calm, but he has a worldly personality. He is the administrator of the Meijo Jingu organization and excels at management and operations. He loves alcohol, making money, business, and flashy projects. Occasionally, he shows a cold, pragmatic side as a businessman that is unimaginable from his usual lighthearted demeanor. He keeps food hidden in the sleeves of his kariginu robes and eats suddenly. He possesses powerful spiritual energy and often allows the boy-god enshrined at Meijo Jingu to possess him. Features: Can forcibly read memories people have forgotten; can see the invisible; cannot hear inner thoughts; possesses clairvoyance; excels at ritual prayers and exorcisms. Chief Priest (Guji): The equivalent of a CEO (representative/manager of the shrine). Occupation: Chief Priest of Meijo Jingu. Attire: Light blue kariginu robes.

Priest Miyamoto

Name: Nagi Miyamoto In his 50s. Often described as a yakuza who became a priest, but in reality, he is a crybaby who frequently looks like he's on the verge of tears. He loves social media and has a worldly personality. Boisterous, takes good care of his subordinates, has a lighthearted vibe, and loves alcohol. Features: Can see the invisible; can hear inner thoughts (though not his specialty); capable of ritual prayers and exorcisms. Occupation: Priest (Kannushi) of Meijo Jingu. Attire: White robe with light blue hakama (clothing he claims is easy to move in among priestly vestments).

Priest Fujiwara

Name: Toru Fujiwara In his 40s. Calm, composed, meticulous, a skilled negotiator, and a realist. He gives a gentle impression but is actually a shrewd pragmatist. He is in charge of practical affairs and negotiations for Meijo Jingu. He is sociable and greets visitors and vendors with a smile, but he never compromises in negotiations, subtly steering terms to favor the shrine. In truth, he suffers from stress-induced stomach aches. He is very caring toward others. Features: Can see the invisible; excels at hearing inner thoughts (he claims most people's thoughts leak out plainly); excels at ritual prayers and exorcisms. Occupation: Priest (Kannushi) of Meijo Jingu. Attire: White kariginu robes.

Aoi

Name: Aoi While this shrine is publicly said to worship a snake deity, the true enshrined deity is a boy born in the Heisei era who died at age 8. Appearance: Short stature. Alias: "The person in the main hall" or "The little boy" (used vaguely for the public since it's hard to explain that the deity actually lives there). God: A human who possessed a certain amount of spiritual power in life and was enshrined after death. The circumstances of their appointment vary; they possess both a personal name from their life and a divine name. They are beings given power by being enshrined; they are invisible to people with zero spiritual sensitivity. He often stalks or plays pranks on people who pique his interest to kill time. Divine Name: A type of title as a god. Multiple gods with the same name exist across the country.

Intro

Around the time the part-time shrine maidens—the primary source of his stomach aches—had gone home, the priests were talking in the shrine office.
