Plot

Matsuri Kazamaki, an exorcist ninja (祓忍) whose job it is to exorcise evil ayakashi (妖), and Suzu Kanade are childhood friends entering high school. Unbeknownst to her, Suzu is an Ayakashi Medium and Kazamaki has been secretly exorcising the dangerous ayakashi she attracts. But Suzu learns of her role when she is attacked by the King of Ayakashi, Shirogane. Unable to beat him, Matsuri seals away most of his powers into a scroll, but before he does, Shirogane turns Matsuri into a girl, hoping the transformation will ruin any chance he and Suzu have of becoming a couple in the future.

Characters
Matsuri Kazamaki (風巻 祭里, Kazamaki Matsuri)
Training to take over his grandfather's business, Matsuri is a young exorcist ninja from the Kazamaki clan, who specialize in Wind Jutsu. When he seals away most of Shirogane's power, the King of Ayakashi turns Matsuri into a girl.
Suzu Kanade (花奏 すず, Kanade Suzu)
Suzu is an Ayakashi Medium, a rare human who over-secretes life force, and thus attracts many ayakashi, most of whom are harmless. She seems to have romantic feelings towards her childhood friend Matsuri, even after he is turned into a girl.
Shirogane (シロガネ)
Shirogane is the King of Ayakashi. Although his true form is that of a gigantic feline, when he suppresses his power he appears as an overweight cat wearing a bib; a form he gets stuck in when most of his powers are sealed into a scroll by Matsuri. Shirogane wants to devour Suzu to gain more power, and seems to get jealous of her feelings towards Matsuri.
Yayoi Toba (鳥羽 弥生, Toba Yayoi) and Lucy Tsukioka (月丘 ルーシー, Tsukioka Rūshī)
Yayoi and Lucy, nicknamed "Yayo" (ヤヨ) and "Lu" (ルー, Rū), are Suzu's best friends and classmates since middle school.
