Kanojo ga Joubutsu Dekinai Riyuu

A Guy and His Ghost
 “Kanojo ga Joubutsu Dekinai Riyuu~The Girl Who Can’t Enter Nirvana”  follows a guy named Emin(Win Morisaki)  who has come to Japan from Myanmar with the dream of pursuing a career as a manga creator.Things are off to a good start when he is enrolled in school, given a stipend to live on, and employed at a local convenience store.
But things go from bad to worse when his backpack is stolen along with all his money, and he comes home that there is a ghost living in his closet!
Although the ghostly girl (Remi Takagi) seems to do him no harm, Emin cannot stand living with a spirit and tries to get out of his contract and move to another place. Unfortunately this doesn’t seem possible and he is forced to stay there!
At wits end, his manager at his workplace (who reveals himself to be a former monk, LOL) tells him that spirits get stuck to this plane when they have unfulfilled desires, and that the only way to get RID of the ghost…is to take care of those goals!
So in the end, it is up to Emin to get out a pad of paper, and with pen in hand, take down the ‘bucket list” of this ghostly girl and help her achieve her wishes so she can peacefully depart and emin can go on with his regular life-But things aren’t gonna be as simple as he thinks!
Haha, Kanojo ga Joubutsu Dekinai Riyuu seems to be a fun lighthearted show and it’ll be interesting to see where this drama goes….
