Nabeshima is just way too busy, and since Modoka seems to have the power to see lost souls, he's recruited to help lighten the workload. But many of the dead are reluctant to leave this world, feeling they have not accomplished all that they should have in their lives.Madoka must assist the deceased in performing tasks that will help them finally feel closure and make them willing to leave everything behind for good.
Tokyopop published Tanaka's four-volume Pearl Pink manga in North America. Viz Media's Shojo Beat imprint is releasing Tanaka's Meteor Prince.
