Yuria learns of Miko’s sight after the latter visits Mitsue in search of prayer beads that will keep the ghosts at bay. Mitsue Takeda is an old fortune-teller who Yuria looks up to and wants to be like. She can only see small, fairly harmless ghosts, not the massive, terrifying, and potentially deadly ones that Miko can. Like Miko, Yuria has “the sight.” But unlike Miko, Yuria’s sight is relatively weak. Yuria Niguredou is a loner girl who Miko and Hana befriend. And Hana appears to have an ability that converts the calories she eats into a holy aura that eradicates ghosts. For example, there’s no way she’d be able to stay calm if she saw a ghost as Miko does. In a lot of ways, she’s the opposite of Miko. Hana Yurikawa is a more important character. He enjoys watching horror shows on TV, particularly with his sister. But since there aren’t many characters of note, I felt like adding him. He’s not really that important in the grand scheme of things. Kyousuke Yotsuya is Miko’s younger brother. But, I will mention that she can see good spirits too. There’s not really all that much else to say about her that I haven’t already said. Miko Yotsuya was your typical high school girl until she awoke one day to find that she could see all sorts of scary things. And on top of that, she frequently has to steer her best friend Hana, who can’t see ghosts, away from them without alerting her to their existence. But unfortunately for her, they’re everywhere. Obviously, she’d love nothing more than to have nothing to do with these ghosts. For this reason, she has to act like she doesn’t see them no matter what they’re doing or how scary they are. Something many of these ghosts ask those they cross paths with is “Can you see me?” Miko doesn’t know what would happen to her if a ghost learns she can see it, and she doesn’t want to find out. Miko can see all these terrifying ghosts that most people can’t, and that changes how she interacts with the world around her.
The girl who sees them series#
With today’s Japanese lesson out of the way, what’s the series actually about other than a girl who sees dead people? Well, that’s basically it. So Mieruko translates to something along the lines of “child with sight,” which is a reference to the fact that Miko can see ghosts and other spirits. Mieru (見える) means to be seen and ko (子) means child. Mieruko-chan isn’t the name of the protagonist of the series. I want to explain the title of this series here at the start of the review because I don’t want the title to go over the heads of anyone with no Japanese knowledge. It also features a decent amount of ecchi, which is weird, but I’ll save that for later in the review. Mieruko-chan (見える子ちゃん) is a supernatural horror/comedy series about a girl who one day can suddenly see ghosts.
