About this title

Synopsis

When spirits cross over into the human world, they can possess old objects and gain a physical form: a tsukumogami. Tsukumogami can be gentle, violent, or somewhere in-between, so the Saenome clan peacefully helps send them back to the spirit world to avoid destruction. Hyouma Kunato is a member of the clan, but is...less than peaceful, since he holds a grudge from when a tsukumogami robbed him of something important. Afraid that Hyouma's brash anger in dealing with these spirits will lead to supernatural catastrophes, Hyouma's grandfather sends him to live in Kyoto with Nagatsuki Botan, an unusual young woman who actually lives with tsukumogami like family! Can Hyouma learn to control his emotions when dealing with tsukumogami, or is his own spirit doomed to be possessed with rage forever? (Source: Seven Seas Entertainment)

Nagatsuki Botan is one of the main characters in Malevolent Spirits: Mononogatari. She is a quiet and kind young woman who lives with several tsukumogami, objects that have gained spirits. Botan has a special connection with them, which allows her to understand their feelings and communicate with them easily. Even though she is gentle and calm, she is also strong and determined when needed. She tries to create peace between humans and tsukumogami and treats both sides with respect. Her kind nature often helps others open up, especially Hyōma Kunato, who learns to change his view of spirits through her influence. Botan is known for her caring personality, calm attitude, and strong sense of empathy.
