About Summer Storm! Open for Business

Here is what Summer Storm! Open for Business (Natsu no Arashi! Akinaichuu) is about, retold in plain terms: a comedy, supernatural and romance anime by Shaft (2009). At its core: The summer of a man's boyhood memories continue. Still on the cusp between childhood and being a man, he has linked with the ghost of a young woman from the Realm War 2 era.

Along the way, she, and the ghosts of other young ladies from that time, continue adventures alongside their linked partners, learning more about each other and travelling through time via their supernatural connection. While he struggles to see his crush on her come to fruition, meanwhile his companion—a girl his age, pretending to be a boy—seeks his attention as well.

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series.
