No, Yabu! Don't forget your hernia.
Thanks, Yahiro.

They're a badge of honor.
Right.

- OK! - Alright!

Product line manager?
Yes. I want you to do it.
Well…
How many years has it been?
Eleven years. I came here straight out of high school.
You deserve this promotion, Yahiro.
What's up? It's a good opportunity.
Product line manager… Yes, it's a step up.
Right? It's a big deal.
Don't tell anyone, but I want you to run the mill eventually.
But…
Look at Yabu. I respect him for working here for decades.
But I wonder if I could do it.
Is life just about the daily grind of work, Boss?
What are you talking about?
I want to go to Tokyo and be a TV personality.
It's my childhood dream.
A TV personality?
Stop joking. TV's dead. Why?
There's someone whom I look up to.
Forget it, you idiot. You're a real idiot!
Choose a path taken by no other.
Huh?
You followed your dream, sir!
I know that you trained as an actor in Tokyo.
It's no guarantee of anything!
This is my only chance!
This idiot has decided.
Sir.
This is my last chance to follow my dream. Don't stop me.
Please.
Choose a path taken by no other!

Hello?
I'm Yahiro Kuwata. I called you…
Take a seat and I'll join you!
OK…
Here I am.
Wanna be on TV?
Yes!
It won't be easy.
I know…
But I'll give it my all!
I've known Satomi and Haruka since they were kids.
So…
You want me to represent you?
You'll take me on?
We'll split your earnings 80/20.
So, if I earned ten million, I'd get eight million?
No, the other way around.
Let's see. You'd be perfect…
for Living in It!.
And what is… Living in it!?
JOUBUTSU REAL ESATE OFFICE
That means Resting Place.
Sorry for the wait.
Welcome.
We have cheap stigmatized properties.
I'll show you.
So… What are stigmatized properties?
You don't know?
I'll explain what they are.
These properties cause psychological distress.
3-BEDROOM APARTMENT RENT - 43,000 YEN
Psychological distress?
There can be terrible psychological consequences for tenants.
There can?
There are suicides, homicides, mysterious deaths…
It starts with the death of a tenant.
Spooky…
Young entertainers who are short of money
often rent such properties.
Really?
APARTMENT LISTINGS
This is a bargain. The last tenant committed suicide.
It's cheap because it wasn't cleaned up.

This is a bargain. The last tenant committed suicide.

Mr. Fujiyoshi told me to keep filming.
OK, I'm Living in It!.
I want some spookiness, as long as I'm not hurt.

A gig!
We're here! Get off the bus, please!
Follow me to the location.
This way! Follow me!
Good morning!
Over this way…
- Yes… - Coming through…
It's hot! It's 42 degrees!
Act like you're enjoying summer!
So, you'll walk between the woman and the couple.
- Yes. - We'll get back to you with the timing.
Good morning!
- Morning! - Good morning!
It's Kazuya Kamenashi!
- Good morning! - Good morning!
- So, Mr. Kamenashi… - Yes.
- First up is the crane shot. - Yes.
- I run out of the surf? - Then hurry to the table.
- No problem. - Thank you.
We want to see you enjoying the beach.
- Can I do it? - Sure!
- Let's do it! - Let's have some fun.
Let's have some fun.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
And you.
Hey! Hey, you!
You're over here.
OK!
You're a couple, OK?
You two at the back! Go back a little farther!
That's right!
Nice to meet you.
It's nice to meet you too.
OK, let's run through it.
Let me take this.
You don't have to. My hands are sweaty.
We have to.
You're my boyfriend for the day.
Make believe that I'm your girlfriend for real.
OK.
We're ready!
OK, everyone, this is a test.
Ready, action!
OK…
Cut!
That was good!
That's it.
That's a wrap. Thank you, everyone!
Thank you, everyone!
- Thank you, everyone! - Thank you, everyone!
OK, bye then.
I should've got her number.
Only in your dreams!
Whoa, how did you get here?
Let's go drinking!
Am I paying again?
Yes, you got paid!
It's mostly gone!
One, two, one, two!
Wait!
Mr. Fujiyoshi!
He's fast for an old guy.
HOSTESS BAR PAPILLON
Is he in here?
That sounds great!
Mr. Fujiyoshi?
I want to go too!
Huh?
Table for one?
Where is he?
Come right in. This way!
Let's go in the back.
We'll sit you right over here.
I'll send you over a girl right away.
Come and serve the gentleman!
Coming!
Sorry for making you wait!
Please have a seat!
You look like you've seen a ghost.
It's you.
Hello again.
My name is Yahiro.
I'm Karin Harubara.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
So, you're an actor.
I can't live off it, so I work here part-time.
How about you?
I want to be a TV personality.
On TV?
Am I being pushy?
No way…
Do you like someone else?
I don't know.
Sure you do. There must be a girl who comes to mind.
I can't do this!
Come on!
If it's an important audition, I'm useless.
You're just who I need!
My phone…
Uh…
Should I call?
Hello.
Leave, bitch!
What's wrong?
You must be a real player, Yahiro.
No, it's not that…
What happened?
Whose nails…

LAUGHTER AND GOOSEBUMPS AUDITION
I'll give 120%!
Thank you.
You can sit.
Alright.
OK, next up is…
Here.
Can you introduce yourself, please?
Yes.
I'm Yahiro Kuwata. I'm from Fukuoka.
I'm 29, but I'm new to this.
I've wanted to be a TV personality since I was a child.
So, I quit my day job and came to Tokyo.
YAHIRO KUWATA
I'm new here, so I have no experience or money.
To be a TV personality with a specialty…
HIYORI KAMURO PARANORMAL RESEARCHER
…I live in a stigmatized property.
I'm a Living in Stigmatized Properties TV Personality trainee.
Why do you want to do this?
Yes.
I've been a fan of this program from the start.
I've often imagined myself being in it.
I've thought about what I'd do on it.
So, maybe…
What's wrong?
What?
Did it freeze?
I'll fix it.
- It's broken? - But why…?
Just a second.
Young man!
You were…
Thank you.
Spiritually defenseless.
And you're caring.
Call me any time.
OK.
Yes?

You should move out.
But this is my big chance.
But you might get--
Karin?
Am I being pushy?
Do you like someone else?
Sure you do. The girl in front of you.
Karin, stop…
Sorry! Are you OK?
What did I do?
Ouch!
Ouch…
Oh…
It has a curse on it.
It's bad.
This hex brings harm to anyone around.
This place is haunted. It attracts roaming evil forces.
It sucks them in like a pump.
But why is it here?
Yahiro.
Yes?
You should move out now.
But then the ghost will be all by herself.
If you're too nice, she'll own you!
INTERNET AND MANGA CAFE
Is it Fujiyoshi?
It's not him.
Hello. Kuwata speaking.
My name is Ogura. I'm with Minato Television.
Yes.
We saw your video, and we want you to be on our show.
As a live reporter.
A paranormal reporter?
Yes, on a satellite channel.
Good for you.
Thank you. This is my first offer!
It'll probably be at a haunted inn in Tochigi.
Karin?
But…
Be careful.
Don't worry. I'll be with the crew.
OK, I see…
See you!
What a cute dog!
Thank you!
We're here!
OK.
- It's quite big! - It fits the brief.
It's atmospheric.
- Thank you. - Oh, finally.
Thank you.
- Can we go in? - Yes, it should be OK.
- Should I film the sign? - And the exterior.
- Yes? - Let's go!
OK.
THE SECOND STIGMATIZED PROPERTY
OMIYA-EN INN, TOCHIGI, 6,500 YEN PER NIGHT
I heard that a banker used to live here.
Uh… Right.
The show starts at 8 p.m., then you're on live.
- Sounds good! - Thank you.
- We can't? - Not the banquet hall!
Hold on a second, sir.
- Kai, come here, please! - Yes.
I thought you spoke to the owner.
I did.
No banquet hall!
Nor upstairs. We have guests.
You didn't tell us.
Where can we film?
Hold it right there.
Sir.
- Hey. - Please.
In that case…
- I'll be back. - Yes.
- Out of my way. - Sorry.
- Thanks. - It's OK.
You saved us.
Can we shoot in here?
Who's in there?
Yeah.
You'd be angry if I didn't ask.
No, it's too soon to join you.
Laughter invites happiness!
Thank you. Thank you.
Don't worry. You won't be bothered.
I told you in advance, so no tricks.
OK, you can do it.
Let's get ready.
Come on, guys!
Oh, sorry…
Let's set up!
Here's your script.
Yes.
I'll put your clothes here.
Thank you.
- I'll do a final touch on set. - Yes.
See you.
Are there guests upstairs?
How annoying!
Can I put these here?
- These too. - Oh…
- Thank you. - Help me with those.
I saw it!
What?
I saw a girl walking upstairs.
She had legs?
Well… Yes.
She's a guest.
Wait in your room.
OK?
Is the composition OK?
Yes. With some close-ups.
- Close-ups. - Yes.
And Yahiro exits from…
Here.
- Here? - No, there.
- Move the table. - OK.
Check the battery.
I'll do that.
- Go ahead. - OK.
- Is this good? - Yes.
Coming through.
I'll fix the mic.
Say something.
I'm Yahiro Kuwata. Let's do it!
Thank you.
I'll touch you up.
Stand by!
- OK. - Rolling!
It's on. We're after the opening.
Yukiyoshi Kanetsugu presents Do Not Go There.
- We're here with our guest. - Yes.
Toshiyuki Tanaka is an expert in cursed objects.
Thank you for having me.
Once again, we have the pioneering expert to ourselves.
Yes.
- What have we got? - Yes.
Darling…
Hey.
Darling…
No talking on set!
Huh?
No one's talking, Usui.
What?
Have a listen.
Darling…
- A woman? - Yeah.
Can I listen?
Darling…
She's talking to a little girl.
We're up next!
Yahiro, our new reporter, lives in stigmatized properties.
- Yes. - Can you get us started?
OK, here I go.
Didn't I tell you already? Do not go there!
Hello, Yahiro!
I'm Yahiro. Living in stigmatized properties is my thing.
You have a very fair complexion.
- Maybe he's pale? - It could be.
I use skin whitening treatment.
Oh, that's why!
By the way, do you feel a presence there?
There is a girl ghost here.
She came here to recover from a terrible sickness.
But she wasn't getting better.
She suffered so much.
Poor little girl.
She was so miserable that one day,
her mother smothered her.
What?
Uh, did I say something?
Was that a voice?
I heard a voice.
What was it?
I felt it for sure. It's a girl ghost at the inn.
Seriously?
Yahiro, you've got what it takes.
I can't wait for more!
We'll have a tour of spots
where sighting were made. Like the back room and the garden.
Here we go.
Let me take the mic off.
- Sorry… - Hey.
- Good work. - Good work.
You're a great improviser! With the girl ghost!
You just winged it?
Sorry.
You were great!
You really want to stay the night, Yahiro?
I do live in a stigmatized property!
We don't mind, but…
You're strange.
Go for it!
Good work.
- Thank you. - No problem.
Is it backwards?
Is Yahiro OK?
PUBLIC BATH
Sorry, Chizuko darling…
Chizuko…
Was it a dream?
What are you doing?
What happened in the back room?
Tell me.
You lied about having guests.
This isn't what I saw.
You saw them?
Forget it!
A movie role?
It's only a small part.
- Congratulations! - Thank you.
But I'll have to be away for a while.
Oh, right.
I have to keep up with you.
I'm just starting out.
I'll create a buzz and go all the way!
You've changed a little.
Let's share locations, Yahiro.
SHARE YOUR REAL-TIME LOCATION
Welcome.
Can I have one more water?
OK.
Is it payday yet?
Not yet.
Then you pay for the coffee and drinks!
Affordable stigmatized properties!
I recommend this. It's a shared house.
A shared house!
Tenants don't stay long. They say there's a ghost.
Many of them lose their minds.
Is it true you have a ghost?
Not that again! I've never seen one.
Maybe people thought you were a ghost.
Give me a break. I'm not a ghost!
An old lady?
You can move in any time!
Yeah, thank you.
I'm planning to submit a video of the house to a news site.
Don't see why not!
I don't think anything will happen.
Bye!
I'd be the famous stigmatized property guy.

Yes.
Oh, thanks.

Kaito?
- Hey. - What's up?
Hey!
Hi.
I'm beat!
Kaito.
I get the "No Girls" rule, but what about old women?
Huh?
- What? - An old lady's living here.
Never!
Really?
I heard her last night, and she was on our video chat.
No way! Who'd invite an old woman over?
Is she here?
Well… Let's find out.
Maybe she has something to say.
PRACTICES OF WESTERN NECROMACY
OUIJA BOARD
This used to be a thing! Is this Kokkuri-san?
It's a bit different.
- Let's summon her! - She doesn't exist!
Can you help me film and upload this?
- Sure. - But how?
- The screws are loose. - They're loose.
- Okay, extend it. - Okay.
Tighten them.
OK.
Done.
- Me too. - Okay.
How's this, Yahiro?
Yes?
- Let's have it up higher. - Okay.
Turn off the light.
OK, here we go.
Let's sit down.
Yes.
Let's start.
Spirits in the dark, respond to our call.
Are you a man or a woman?
That's a cliché.
This is bullshit--
You're moving it!
I'm not.
A woman.
Shit.
Next question.
How old are you?
Let's stop!
Wa…
Ta…
Shi…
No…
Chi…
My blood…
It's hot! It's hot!
It's hot!
Kaito!
Are you OK?
I'll take him.
Kaito became more delirious each day.
He's possessed by a stubborn spirit.
Is it an old woman?
I can't tell. Her face is pulverized.
Pulverized?
So, you're back.
THREE HOURS 14 MINUTES
Kaito!
Kaito, don't!
Kaito!
Later, we learned
how the previous tenant had died.
An old woman jumped to her death
- and landed on her face. - Kaito!
Was Kaito possessed by her spirit?
- Kaito! - We would never know.
Kaito survived, and that was the end of our living together.
Kaito!
I'm not confident I can keep doing Living in It!.
Why?
Because my friend was maimed!
It wouldn't have happened if I hadn't moved in.
You're too caring.
That creates dependency.
What do you mean?
Someone told me that before.
Ghosts are attracted to nice people too.
That's why I chose you.
What?
I've hardly eaten for three days.
I left that house, so I'm back at the Internet Cafe.
Showbiz is tough.
What a big talker!
Move in with me.
Come in.
May I?
Just say, "I'm home."
I'm home.
Here's a blanket.
Thanks.
A pillow.
What made you want to be a TV personality?
Dad died when I was at elementary school.
I must've always looked sad.
All the kids left me alone.
Then I saw a TV personality at an event.
My mentor told me this.
Everyone's life has a crossroad.
Many people will choose the path with no obstacles.
KID'S PLAY AREA
Another path is rocky and hard to walk on.
No one would choose the rocky path.
But I know this for sure.
Choose a path taken by no other!
Take the path that is harder.
That'll help you become a caring person.
I wouldn't be here if I hadn't met him.
Why did you become an actor, Karin?
Good night.

Karin, I'm coming in.

Leave me alone!
Good morning!
Good morning.
Do you think Karin is possessed?
Maybe I brought a spirit to her place.
Stop blaming spirits for everything.
You're right.
We'd better watch her though.
Forget what I just said!
Hit me with another one of these!
- Yes. - But you're drunk.
I'm home.

You're going home?
My mom's sick.
She is stable now, but I'm all she's got.
But Living in It! was just getting interesting!
I was in two minds about going, but Mom needs me.
The number you've dialed is not in service.
Check the number and try again.
Mr. Fujiyoshi's gone?
What?
Excuse me.
It's been empty for years.

How have you been, Yahiro?
I'm in trouble. I can't reach Mr. Fujiyoshi.
Mr. Fujiyoshi? Who's that?
- You gave me his card! - Huh?
Hold on a second.
SATORU MOTOYAMA
KIYOSHI FUJIYOSHI
He'll take care of you in Tokyo.
Whoa, how did you get here?
Sorry, but I have to go.
Are you in some kind of trouble?
Hello?
Karin!
I've never told anyone.
About my father.
He killed someone.
I'm a…
murderer's daughter.
My father…
He was an actor.
He wasn't well known,
but he was often away.
And then,
my mother started going out with a regular from her bar.
- My mother stopped coming home. - What do you want to eat?
Let me think.
I want curry for dinner!
Let's buy some groceries.
I love your curry so much!
Dinner's ready, Riho.
Dad, come here.
It was just my father and me.
What is it?
I was happy.
Thank you for taking care of me!
- I felt safe with him. - Thank you.
I LOVE YOU, DAD!
But it didn't last long.
We want custody of Riho.
No way!
You want to be with Mom, right?
Right, Riho?
Riho, we're leaving!
Come here!
I found you!
No!
- I don't want to go! - Just come!
Do as I say!
Leave her!
The man died, and my father went to prison.
I left the children's home
after high school to work.
A rumor went around my workplace about Dad being a felon.
That's when
my father was released and called me.
But…
I couldn't bring myself to speak to him.
I wanted to be someone new.
I'm a coward.
I…
Riho is my real name.
Riho Fujiyoshi.
Fujiyoshi.
Karin.
Karin Harubara, you survived all that.
You did well. You did your best.
Stop hurting yourself.
Welcome home, Karin.
Are you sure?
Welcome home.
Are you sure about me?
When you come home, you say, "I'm home."
I'm home.
We'll be together.
Oops, I lost the train tickets!
They're on your phone.
Right!
Are you sure about me coming?
Mom will be happy.
OK.
Karin?
Karin!
Karin, wait!
TOKYO, SEYAGAYA WARD
Karin?

Dad.
Mr. Fujiyoshi.
I LOVE YOU, DAD!
Dad.
Welcome.
Can I have one more water?
OK.
Is it payday yet?
Not yet.
Then you pay for the coffee and drinks!
Someone told me that before.
Ghosts are attracted to nice people too.
That's why…
I chose you.
I moved to Tokyo and met Mr. Fujiyoshi's ghost.
He made me the Stigmatized Property guy,
which led me to Karin and, eventually, Mr. Fujiyoshi's body.
Maybe it was my destiny, how it was meant to be.
Karin.
I think I'll keep living in stigmatized properties.
What about your mom?
She insisted
that she's OK, so I shouldn't return until I make a name.
Right.
I'll support your dream. Go for it.
Good morning.
- Good morning. - Hello!
Thank you!
- Which floor? - Fifth floor, please.
OK.
Good morning.
Have a nice day.
