Synopsis

Arcana features a humorous plot starring two detectives, Murakami and Nakabayashi, and an unidentified mysterious girl who possesses the power to see spirits. As the story unfolds, Murakami and Nakabayashi have been assigned to a serial bombing case that specifically targeted elementary school kids. Neither of them have any idea of what to go about. Their only source: the prophecy of a patient suffering from amnesia and currently undergoing rehabilitation at a local mental clinic. The detectives try to uncover the secret behind the mystery girl as job reassignments and supernatural occurrences occur more and more frequently.

I liked this manga and you could just see the policeman and her getting along. Overall this manga was a little creepy because of the way they drew the characters. I liked how she had all of these awesome powers including seeing ghosts and allowing others to. I liked the female lead she was a typical smart girl that was cute with amnesia.

Overall this story was not typical at all and did not have as much romance as I would have liked, but the story had alot of imagination. If you enjoy ghosts as much as I do, read more

Same Author The plots are nothing alike but they give of a similar feel. They both can be quite dark but suprisingly funny at times
