One of my all time favorite manga & anime series.
It is an endearing story about a boy finding himself and touches upon many aspects of human nature and the desires that often come with being human. This is a series that never left me from the first time I experienced the series and I still find it to be a timeless manga that truly makes you think about spirituality and wanting. It is both very deep and thoughtful while also steeped in humor, a very enjoyable read that I would highly recommend.
The manga follows high schooler Watanuki Kimihiro, a boy cursed with ability to not only see spirits but also attract them. He, one day, wanders into a strange wish granting shop owned by a mysterious woman named Yuko (an alias, her real name is never mentioned) who offers to grant Watanuki's wish in exchange for being a part-time worker at her shop. As Watanuki works to pay for his wish,, he soon learns more about the supernatural world and about himself under the wing of his new employer, Yuko.
