Synopsis
The story centers around Tsukimi Kurashita, a huge fan of jellyfish (kurage, a wordplay on the "kura/mi" and "tsuki/ge" in her name) and a girl who moves to Tokyo to become an illustrator. She moves into "Amamizukan," an apartment complex that is full of fujoshi (diehard female otaku) with a no-men-allowed rule. However, one day, Tsukimi invites a stylishly fashionable woman to stay at her room at Amamizukan — only to discover that the guest is not who "she" seems to be.

Psychic Detective Yakumo
Rating: 3
Review: Bee Train's stolid reworking of Manabu Kaminaga's supernatural mystery novels won't be blowing minds anytime soon, but it delivers the requisite sleuthing thrills and ghostly goings-on, and with an emotional bonus just big enough to justify its continued existence. The emotional bonus comes in the shape of Haruka Ozawa, a college student on her way to her school's Film Research Association. She isn't looking for filmmaking tips but rather for Yakumo Saitō. Yakumo is reputedly a psychic and Haruka has a possessed friend who could use some supernatural help. The meeting doesn't go well though. Yakumo wants rather a lot of cash to help and Haruka catches him conning money out of students with a fake card-guessing trick, ruining her faith in his abilities and his character. Yakumo, though, takes something approaching a shine to her. And just as well he does: it's soon deadly clear that the evil surrounding Haruka is very real and very human.
This isn't the first adaptation of Kanimaga's Yakumo novels. There're two manga adaptations, a live-action series, and even a play. This episode offers no compelling reason for that kind of popularity. Yakumo is kind of an ass, his powers are Sixth Sense cast-offs, and the mystery is poundingly obvious. Its biggest asset is Haruka, whose realistic strength of mind and little core of sadness allow her to carry the series' emotional heart with becoming ease. Of course, being an introductory episode, you can't expect it to dive straight into an extended mystery or vomit up all of Yakumo's nuances and secrets. And there are big hints at episode's end that nuances, secrets and continuous plotting are all in the offing. Unfortunately, unless director Tomoyuki Kurokawa does something about his screamingly unsubtle musical cues and dispiriting lack of visual imagination, it's unlikely that they'll ever push the series beyond solid competence.
