The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window

Working as a bookstore clerk, Kousuke Mikado has been able to see ghosts his entire life — and he's absolutely terrified of them. His coping mechanism? Wearing glasses to blur his vision so the spirits are at least a little less vivid. It's a pretty sad workaround, honestly. Then Rihito Hiyakawa walks into his life — an eccentric exorcist who's convinced they're fated partners. Before Mikado can object, he's dragged into supernatural casework, exorcising malevolent spirits and stumbling into a web of grisly murders connected to a mysterious woman named Erika Hiura. This 12-episode TV series from Zero-G blends supernatural horror with boys' love in a way that actually works — the tension between the two leads mirrors the unease of the cases they investigate. Hiyakawa is manipulative and hard to read, Mikado is anxious and reluctant, and their dynamic keeps you guessing about where the line between partnership and something deeper really falls. The atmosphere is consistently dark and moody, with a soundtrack that leans hard into the eerie side. If you liked Ghost Hunt's paranormal investigation format or the occult detective vibes of Tokyo Babylon, this hits similar notes but with more explicit BL elements woven into the mystery. Fans of Descendants of Darkness will also find familiar ground here — that same mix of the supernatural, psychological tension, and complicated relationships between male leads. It's not trying to be groundbreaking, but it commits fully to its tone and that counts for a lot.
