About We Rent Tsukumogami

Meet We Rent Tsukumogami (つくもがみ貸します), a comedy, mystery and slice of life anime by Telecom Animation Film and TMS Entertainment (2018). Here is the premise in a nutshell. The setup: In a place and time where disasters are commonplace, Oko and Seiji cater to local customers at Izumoya, their renowned rental shop for everyday items. Mixed with Izumoya’s regular inventory are tsukumogami, long-lost spirits disguised as everyday objects.

Beyond that: Unlike most people, Oko and Seiji can see and listen to the spirits, and Izumoya grows into a hub of paranormal activity as numerous tsukumogami end up in the shop. When Oko and Seiji spread the supernatural love by lending their “special” tsukumogami to unwitting customers, things get really interesting!

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Okou (Mikako Komatsu) and Seiji (Junya Enoki) are two of the characters you will meet early. If you count yourself among viewers who want something light between heavier series, put it on your list. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Telecom Animation Film and TMS Entertainment is the studio behind We Rent Tsukumogami, and its direction shapes everything from character design to motion. The comedy focus matters here: timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. With a 6.2/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Voice casting, including Mikako Komatsu as Okou, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. It aired in 2018, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
