Narumi Inoue has a problem with the new girl in school. It's not that Hibiki Amami is impolite or a bully… it's just that she sees, speaks with, and befriends ghosts! Now, it's at the point that when Amami's around, Inoue sometimes sees them too, spelling disaster for a girl who's terrified of anything supernatural. However, Amami's genuine kindness makes it hard for Inoue to ignore her, especially when her friends Kyoko, Kana, and Makoto, as well as the other students, have accepted Amami's habit of talking to thin air and walking around invisible obstacles. With gentle coaxing (and the knowledge that her departed grandmother is watching over her), Inoue finds herself immersed in Amami's strange, otherworldly adventures. Fulfilling the last wishes of the dead might not be a normal after-school activity, but at least they'll always know why the ghost crossed to the other side in RE-KAN!

Unsure of how to repay someone who is no longer part of this world, Watanuki promises Haruka that he will find five items for him. Beginning the search, he meets Doumeki at his grandfather's old warehouse where the first item, an old storybook, is stored. As Watanuki reaches out for the book, he unwillingly brings the tale to life; and when the pair finds themselves running for their lives it becomes clear that fulfilling Haruka's task will be nowhere near as simple as they thought.
