Shinigami no Ballad is a short series of six self-contained stories about Momo, the god of death, her cat Daniel, and their ventures in the human world. All stories involve young people having to deal with the loss in some way or another. This might sound like heavy drama but Shinigami no Ballad manages to tell stories in a fairly lighthearted, soothing way.

No Spoiler Review:
The series is a collection of short stories told over the course of 6 episodes. The show comes off lackluster with it's presentation and the soundtrack used was awful.

Tons of synching issues with sound and the characters talking as well. Very distracting. The choice of characters that were being followed was a bit odd as well. I can't go to into the details about the previous statement but with this show diving into the ...
