This show seems to combine paranormal and zoological anime. Also, how high is the percentage of Shinto and mysticism here? Can I add this to my stack?

I am glad that this time it is already in the database. There is no more irritating thing on this site than when you write about a new anime that piques my interest, but there is no page for it on the site to put it into my plan to watch list.

I remember reading a few chapters years ago. It's a very unique and wholesome slice-of-life, but there were implications of a plot hidng beneath the surface.
