Plot

The series follows the life of the luckless and homeless high school student Kogarashi Fuyuzora. In his search for a home, he is introduced to the Yuragi Inn, a cheap boarding house and former hot springs inn. The reason the rent is so cheap is because it is haunted by the beautiful ghost spirit Yuuna whose corpse was discovered at the inn. Kogarashi then helps Yuuna with her unfinished business, all while discovering the supernatural secrets of the rest of the female tenants.

The girls that have shown to be in love with him are Yuuna, Chisaki, Sagiri, Oboro, Hibari, and Karura, with the latter two having already confessed and been rejected by him although it only made them both bolder in their pursuits. He later sacrifices his life to save them after his body is stolen by an Oni that tried to kill them by destroying his own body.
