Synopsis:
Miko is a typical high school student whose life starts to turn upside down when she suddenly starts seeing terrifying monsters. Despite being very frightened, Miko goes about her daily life, pretending not to notice the horror that surrounds her. He had to endure fear to keep himself and his friend Hana out of harm's way, even if it meant coming face to face with the worst. Mixing comedy and horror, Mieruko-chan tells the story of a girl who tries to confront a psychic by acting indifferent to her.
