Description: Phantom Quest Corp.
Their business is in removing any supernatural threats to your buisness. The most unusual company in Japan, Phantom Quest Corporation [You-Gen-Kai-Sya] is ready for anything.
Located in a quaint, small house (surrounded by skyscrapers) in the middle of the Shinjuku district of Tokyo, Phantom Quest is owned and operated by Ayaka Kisaragi. The company also comprises Section U detective Kozo Karino, Ayaka's "secretary" and bookeeper Mamoru Shimesu, resident exorcist Rokkon, the spiritual Madame Suimei, and newcomer Nanami Rokugo. The Phantom Quest employees are up against ghosts, demons, vampires, and all the other ilk of the undead...as well as serious debt and Ayaka's potentially dangerous habits. Whoever said ghost hunting isn't funny hasn't seen how the Phantom Quest Corporation works.
Combining just the right amount of comedy with a good dose of action, suspense, character interaction, and at least some originality, Phantom Quest Corp. may be one well worth seeing.
