Description
These supernatural stories revolve around and are narrated by Zhang Shun, a boy recently graduated from high school. Lost and wondering about his next move in life.
After his graduation ceremony, he has his first brush with the supernatural and is trapped in an ideal dream world. Fortunately, he escapes with his life and he gains a bit of insight into what he wishes to do in life.
From that day onward, his life becomes increasingly hectic as he constantly faces off against incredulous supernatural events. An inescapable monster, his body being stolen by a ghost, the dead coming back to life, escaping the King of Ghosts and more.
But most importantly, these stories cover the growth of Zhang Shun and the people around him.

- MejiroRoyal Road★★★★ 4.0This is a strangely relaxed modern-day, uh, horror-ish, sort of? It's kinda like the ~gatari series, except with the frenetic teenage sexuality replaced with relaxed sunshine and the flow of water, and the fight scenes replaced by people talking things out. It's not quite chilled enough to be properly slice-of-life, as there is stuff happening rather than days simply drifting past, but it's all quite relaxed and laid-back.
The grammar starts off a bit ropey but improves, the story is a bit meandering but would loose a lot of its charm if it was more direct, and the characters are all slightly off-kilter, but without being too intense, appropriate for something that's all quite chilled. Even when a death god(? I think, apologies if I missed the cultural context) shows up, it's more socially awkward (and used for a hilarious chase scene) than an existential threat. The writer is in the process of editing the story, which does currently read like the key scenes of a story and missing some of the connective tissue, but it holds together well enough.
The prose is up to the task, giving an overall sparseness - it gives the details needed, without much in the way of extraneous detail or excessive physical description. If you want to know precisely what everyone looks like or the terrain actions are happening in, it might not be for you, but the vague, almost ethereal writing is appropriate for the story.
