Synopsis

Keitarou Gentouga is a college freshman who hates ghosts. Unluckily for him, he has a knack for attracting spirits. Two years ago, this connection had led to him receiving a spiritual injury on his right hand, with his friend getting caught in the crossfire. The event caused him to become a shut-in, leaving him with very poor social skills. Fortunately, Keitarou is slowly starting to mingle with society, thanks to the help of his childhood friend, Eiko Houzuki.

As part of his rehabilitation, Keitarou takes on the part-time job of a private tutor, and his first pupil is none other than Eiko's cousin, Yayoi Houzuki. Besides being a child prodigy, there is another peculiarity regarding Yayoi—she has a spiritual constitution, just like Keitarou. However, in contrast to Keitarou, she yearns to encounter spirits, hoping to find the ghost that took her mother away. As Keitarou is dragged along by Yayoi and Eiko to haunted spots, his part-time job seems to be straying further and further away from its original purpose.

Preliminary (14/? eps)
I'm so sad to see that there aren't many people who know about this manga but this review will be for those who happen to stumble across this page and are wondering if they should pick up. Answer: YOU TOTALLY SHOULD

Dark Gathering might be one of my favorite hidden gems I've found in a while. If you are looking for an action occult manga like jujutsu kaisen and still have the sour/disappointing taste of phantom seer in your mouth I HIGHLY rec. starting this manga. The fun twist is that non of the main characters actually have 'super powers' its all done within the rules ...

Preliminary (30/? eps)
Dark Gathering unlike most other horror manga starts off very strong and keeps the reader on their toes through each chapter. There's rarely any big cliffhangers at the end of each chapter as is the trope with most manga these days and each chapter averaging 40 pages leads to a satisfactory conclusion but still wants one to keep reading that next chapter. Dark Gathering has good art and I mean VERY good art combined with grotesque horror that sends chills down your spine. The ghosts are pretty well designed. Most of the stronger ghosts have their own backstory so you can kinda sympathize with how ...

Preliminary (60/? eps)
This really is one of the gems of currently publishing manga.

Story: The overarching story is compelling, with the main character’s curse serving as a long term plot driver while offering episodic chunks of taking on various locations and spirits. The spirits and entities they face are varied and always presenting new horrors, new stories, and interesting new occult magic. I don’t get “scared” from media so I don’t find this or any manga “scary” in that way, but this manga is genuinely disturbing at points. It’s very graphic at times and it pulls no punches with disturbing and violent events. I really like that there ...
