Not all storytellers can make a leisurely-paced tale work, but Midorikawa manages it quite well. Thus when Midorikawa decides to allow Nyanko to be fierce, the transition is striking and effective. In this case, the fact that Nyanko is stuck in the body of a mobile good luck cat is perfect, because most of the time, evil is encased in a layer of adorable cuteness. There's something infinitely relaxing about a rolling tale of the supernatural, where the spirits can be horribly evil without needing to show it every few pages. Quiet ghost stories like this remind me of older prose tales that I read, such as Hawthorne or Poe, and thus have a soft spot in my heart. On the other hand, if you like your action fast-paced and want there to be an ongoing story from chapter to chapter, this is probably not going to work for you. If you like quiet, laid-back, episodic comics that can be read either together or in small doses, you are going to love Natsume's Book of Friends. I think the best way to determine if you would be a fan of this manga is to think about your feelings towards Mushishi. Natsume is driven to do all he can to free both himself and the spirits from.Natsume's Book of friends.
The only way to lead a normal life is to try and meet every spirit his grandmother captured, no matter how small or scary. In exchange for helping Natsume with the other spirits and showing him how to be rid of their presence, Nyanko gets the pleasure of controlling the book in the event of Natsume's demise.
He really does have the ability to see spirits, thanks in no small part to a grandmother who collected the names of spirits in a small notebook so that she could have power over them and make them her "friends." Unfortunately, many of the creatures are not too happy about the deal, leaving Natsume in a bind that's not of his own making.Įnter Nyanko, a conniving spirit accidentally freed by Natsume.
"You must be seeing things" is more than just a stock phrase for Takashi Natsume.
