📝 Highlights & Appeal Light spoilers

She looks like an ordinary 5-year-old, but she's secretly the strongest spiritualist. The gap between her appearance and her ghost-crushing power is the show's biggest draw.
02② A comedy of misunderstanding as "the troublemaker"
Kaya is only fighting spirits, but the adults around her can't see that — leading to a bittersweet, funny comedy of misunderstanding.
03③ Chie-sensei, the one who understands Kaya
New teacher Chie has the strength to throw off suspicious intruders. She notices Kaya's secret and quietly begins to support her.
04④ East Fish Studio's lively animation

06⑥ OP "Maboroshi no Yukue" / ED "Playmour"
The OP "Maboroshi no Yukue" by Ichika Sekai and ED "Playmour feat. Kaya-chan" by Sakuya & Doukou color the show's atmosphere.
07⑦ Everyday kindergarten life meets horror
The combination of everyday kindergarten spaces — playgrounds, classrooms — hiding spirits feels fresh, blending childlike innocence with horror tension.
