Natsume's Book of Friends, Volume 27
Category: natsume
Takashi Natsume has always been aware of the supernatural world, but after he inherits a magical book from his grandmother, the supernatural world becomes aware of him. Blessed with the ability to see spirits and demons that remain hidden from the rest of humanity, Natsume has always felt set apart from others, drifting from relative to relative, never truly fitting in. Now, as a troubled high school student, he has come to live in the small town where his grandmother grew up.
Upon his arrival, Natsume discovers that he has inherited more from his grandmother Reiko than just the Sight. A beautiful white dragon has been seen soaring through the skies above the neighborhood, shedding its luminous scales, but it has never been observed landing. When the mustachioed yokai Chobi breaks Natsume's beloved mother-of-pearl comb, the young man decides that one of the rare and lovely scales would make the perfect replacement.
Natsume's quest to find the dragon's scale, however, uncovers more than he had bargained for. As he navigates the intricacies of the supernatural world, he finds himself drawn into a web of unexpected encounters and challenges. The book he inherited from his grandmother, imbued with powerful magic, becomes both a blessing and a burden, opening doors to a realm that few can perceive.
Thrust into a world where spirits and demons coexist alongside the mundane, Natsume must learn to navigate this delicate balance, often at the risk of his own safety. His unique ability to see the unseen sets him apart, making him a target for both benevolent and malevolent entities. Yet, it is this very gift that also allows him to forge unlikely alliances and uncover the mysteries that have long shrouded his family's legacy.
As Natsume embarks on this journey of self-discovery, he must confront his own fears and doubts, while also grappling with the responsibilities that come with his newfound role as a conduit between the two realms. Through his experiences, he not only learns to embrace his unique abilities but also finds the strength to forge his own path in a world that often seems to work against him.
