lol given the overwork culture surprised they even had a holiday to begin with lol

Thanks for the chapter. Poor guy picked up some freeloaders while visiting graves during Obon and not only do they have the gall to strangle him in his sleep, but I doubt they're even pitching in on the rent/utilities....

I imagine ghosts would have their own form of currency. versus some 'protector' ghost having territory in one house


Worst ancestors ever. Man actually visited home and attended the shrines properly. Ungrateful PsOS.

well, we don't know if they were /his/ ancestors versus random ghosts that tagged along but other than adding, doesn't seem worth it to kill him versus like sucking his youth out so they can revive or so lol

Also this could easily be seen as an allegory for a non-supernatural story. Some people do get sleep issues for various reasons, and sleeping pills can be lethal if used improperly.

But, he started having those issues before he took pills but yeah he should've gotten them from a doctor and not a coworker

It's actually customary in Japanese funeral rites to place six coins/mon (ancient currency, 1 yen = 1000 mon until they were completely phased out) inside the casket of the deceased as fare for the soul to cross the Sanzu River to the afterlife.

Ah yeah i vaguely remember hearing that tho i don't think a ghost would be willing to give that back to a living human
