Hotarubi no Mori e

Hotarubi no Mori E and Natsume Yuujinchou are by same mangaka, therefore the artwork is very similar. Both titles contain bittersweet stories, as well as beautiful & happy ones. Hotarubi no Mori E is a compilation of four one-shots, while Natsume Yuujinchou is an on-going series. Even so, Natsume Yuujinchou is very “episode-ish”, just like Hotarubi no More E.
If you have enjoyed one of these titles, then I’m sure you will enjoy the other as well.
Although only one of the 4 chapters of Hotarubi no Mori e involves yokai, there's a very similar feel in that one chapter and the bittersweet interactions between humans and yokai, including romance, the ephemeral nature of human existence, miscommunication and hostility between them, and more. Both stories are excellent, a testament to the author's skill as a writer.
