The Kagura Security Company has earned a well-deserved rest from the bizarre and the unexplained. But where these detectives go, trouble is sure to follow! There will be no rest for the wicked...and the supernatural!

Grade 9 Up-Kagura Security's mission is to rid humanity of spooks. The reason for this is not entirely clear; however, the members of the organization (five women and one very reluctant man, Yoichi) seem to relish their job and do it with lots of gusto. In order to capture these spooks, which freely switch between human and cat form, one must place special seals in four directions in an enclosed space and, when the target has entered the space, hit "enter" on a computer attached to one of the seals. This results in an explosion and the capture of the phantom on a disk. It takes readers a little while to get the hang of this procedure, but it does get repeated over and over throughout the book. That pretty much sums up the plot-that plus Yoichi's incessant threats of resignation. But the story is fun-even when it's hard to understand. There are plenty of explosions and scantily clad bodies for the boys and empowered female psyches for the girls. Decent art and action-packed layouts complete the package.-J. M.
