Watanuki Kimihiro can see spirits and other assorted supernatural creatures, which is quite a bothersome ability he strongly dislikes. On the way home one day, while plagued by some spirits, he is inexplicably compelled to enter a strange house. Ther…e, he encounters Yuuko, a mysterious woman who claims to be able to rid him of the ability to see and attract the troublesome creatures – for a price. She demands for him to work at her "store" that grants wishes to people, and thus begins Watanuki's adventures through weird and wonderful events.
I'd recommend it for its supernatural stories, its aesthetics, and Yūko, who always knows exactly what price those who ask for help must pay.
It's a good fit if you're looking for folklore, episodic mystery, and stories with ambiguous morals.
Unlike other magic shops, Yūko doesn't give anything away for free: it demands an equivalent price and reveals that many people prefer to keep their problem rather than truly change.
