<p><em>Dark Gathering</em> follows <strong>Keitarō Gentōga</strong>, a college student cursed with the ability to attract malevolent spirits. Struggling to recover from a traumatic past, he takes on a tutoring job to reintegrate into normal life — only to find himself drawn deeper into the world of the supernatural.</p>



<p>His pupil, <strong>Yayoi Hōzuki</strong>, is a genius elementary-school girl who shares a dark secret: she can see ghosts and is determined to capture the entity that stole her mother’s soul.
