Grotesque family-friendly comedy about school boy who fights bullies and monsters from spiritual realm daily. School boys fight all the time with bullies and each other, taking great pride in doing so. That is presented as comedy and it somehow works and helps not to take lighthearted story too seriously.

The story begins with protagonist dying in traffic accident, but he is given a chance to live if he can complete a quest. He succeeds in returning to his own body but gains ability to see ghosts so he is quickly recruited as "spirit detective". After that he is constantly fighting something with assistance of his real and supernatural friends who know no fear and never run away from danger.

Average but fun show, despite being pointless and badly disconnected from reality. There is nothing serious in the show which is as entertaining as chewing gum but with fun animation style. 
Nobody is victim and I guess the moral of the show (if any) can be summarised as "It's OK to fight back bullies. Courage is fun. Bruises are fine. Friends are worth fighting for."
