Kazuma needs to get an attorney, like pronto. Even without signing the papers if Kyoko's ghost continues to assert that she's married to him and resides in his primary residence for at least a year there's a real risk that he'd end up in a legally binding common law ghost marriage anyway. I personally know three people that this has happened to.
This happened to my buddy Eric once.

Story was a total dud, now whether that's meta narrative of the storyteller's distraction or just bad writing... Hey, I should make a series like this!

I find it funny that there was no supernatural horror twist in the story this time around, instead it's just the burden of commitment and the act of trying to escape it. Recently, it becomes interesting once you consider that the characters might be trying to express their true feelings in the stories they tell.

its not that It has no supernatural twist. While Ghost Marriage continue to exist. It always has a catch like "if you ignore, you'll get bad luck by haunting by the ghost"

And considering this is a stories here are of supernatural proportions. Yeah, the ghost Marriage was successfully initiated and that guy would be hearing a lot of ghost wailing during the night as he pretty much rejected it.

The twist here is that all those family members are ghosts. How would the entire family know he even opened the envelope and didn't just chuck it because it was hers? She did say she had nothing left but him.

Two candles left. Fear is welling up, bubbling inside of a tea pot. The lamp oil is burning away, soon, the final candle will be extinguished. What will we see, in the murk?

Isn't that from Chinese culture? As far as i remember police now tends to prohibited this kind of culture since it could lead to practice similar in the story, stealing corpses, and ghost marriage mafia where the family hire a group of people to marry their deceased son to random girl who passed away single without the girl family consent.

I think it's usually done in a more respectful way/something as a way to grieve a lost one on top of just a funeral as opposed to "If you don't behave, we'll make a ghost wedding for you" scare tactics towards kids since arranged marriages in asia would already be bs depending on the generation lol

* frantically Googles "ghost divorce"*
There'd be enough lawyers in the after life still doing so i imagine 8D; Horror aspect aside that would make for an entertaining dark comedy sitcom maybe

That'd actually be an interesting plot. As some people theorize there is an afterlife and instead of reincarnation you just stay there that could mean potentially staying with who you had your living partner for forever and well...forever is a long time. Plus other events like widows moving into someone else and when they die their previous partner is like "me or her/him?!"
