With such traits, Kotarou is naturally drawn to the supernatural, and is led to meet the president of the Occult Research Club, the “Witch” Akane Senri. This leads to Kotarou reviving the Occult Club by recruiting Kotori and three other members: the clumsy transfer student Chihaya, the strict class representative Lucia, and the unassuming kohai Shizuru.
