Rihito Hiyakawa is a freelance exorcist who also helps police with the unsolved cases with his experience and his research on spirits. He hires Kosuke Mikado who has the ability to see ghosts and makes him his assistant. Mikado dislikes his abilities but with Hiyakawa's help they start the Cleaners who aid people with spiritual issues.
I find the whole spirit cleaning job, possession of spirits and unsolved paranormal cases really unique and the whole concept is so refreshing to read. The slow burn between the mcs, the unfolding of their powers ( Mikado's especially) and their backstories interesting. I haven't read anything like this before. I would definitely recommend this if you're looking for something close — ghost busters, reluctant partners and unsolved mysteries.

Interesting story. Okay art. A bit jumpy. I like the central character dynamic and I'm interested in learning more about their backstories.
