"Ghostly Things" is about a teenage Girl living alone in a so said haunted mansion in search for her missing mother.
Story 6/10:
I would describe it as a mix between "Spirited Away", "Jujutsu Kaisen" (in much more softer way) and maybe "Noragami". While the story is really nothing special or does something astonishing I really came to like it due to its simplicity and episodical written chapter. So if you are looking for a fun little manga for a bus ride and like light hearted mini-mysterys, then this might be right for you.
Art 7,5/10:
The Art is really is eye candy. Nice designed ghosts and characters. Shojoesque
...
with the right touch of shonen. I would love to see more stuff illustrated by the mangaka with a different storyteller tho - I feel like it would be a waste for such a talent. I was going to rate it a 8 or 9 but the only downside is that all men look like women, which can lead to confussion.
Character 4/10:
The characters are doing there jobs quite fine and that's it. In a manga about spirits it might won't hurt the story but I couldn't help myself to grief for that lost potential. I feel like this story got axed only because the characters had so much more to offer and in the same time are just blunt with little to non character traits. Don't get me wrong they were still fun it is just the designs, backstory and concept as a whole had so much more to offer.
Enjoyment 7/10:
The enjoyment after reading it was quite good. While doing nothing new or special it still was a nicly paced read, offering me a fun time.
Overall 6/10
