Mana entdeckt einen Yōkai, der eine Leiche davonzerren will, aber zu gebrechlich dafür scheint. Nezumi-Otoko bekommt Wind davon und wittert eine Chance für eine neue Geschäftsidee. Wie immer führt dies zu ungeahnten Problemen …
On her way home from her first shrine visit of the year, Mana spots a youkai dragging a dead body. Daddy Eyeball says it might have been a youkai called Kasha. It prefers to eat dead bodies, so it used to run rampant, appearing near crematoriums to steal human corpses... But the youkai Mana saw had been weak, and when it noticed Mana, it had dropped the corpse and run away. Maybe Kasha had grown weaker with age... Ratman overhears this conversation with Daddy Eyeball and hatches a sinister plot...
L'esprit Kasha a trop vieilli et n'arrive plus à se procurer des cadavres frais. C'est alors que Ratichon y voit une occasion en or, mais tout tourne au cauchemar...
