Also known as: 同居人がこの世のモンじゃない, My Roommate Isn't From This World, My Roommate Isn't From This World (pre-serialization)
by Enjitsu Nakamura
The young man's new apartment is haunted, but as it turns out, even the dead have their own personal shortcomings... issues of the flesh included. For the dead have lingering desires and are more susceptible to the world of the living than what one may think. There's anger, there's hate, there's curiosity... and there's love too. Here he finds a ghastly girl who observes him quietly, certainly desiring something...

The young man's new apartment is haunted, but it turns out even the dead have their own personal shortcomings. That premise is a light, surreal hook, and the series treats its spirits as neighbours with everyday problems. The horror is gentle and the comedy is at the centre.The strength is the warmth. The ghost characters are funny and endearing, and the surreal situations keep the chapters bright. The everyday living details are charming.The weaknesses are clear. Some fan-service tones creep in, and the episodic structure can feel loose. Readers wanting a more serious supernatural story may find it too light.Recommended for readers who enjoy cheerful, surreal ghost comedies. Expect a light, easy ride. Its quieter moments reward readers who give it time.
