Ghost Hunt (novel series)
Pop Culture Shock's Michelle Smith criticises the "Ghost Hunt" manga for its "noticeable slide in quality" after volume five, attributing this to "the end of "Ghost Hunt"s serialization in "Nakayoshi" and the beginning of direct-to-tankōban releases". Mania.com's Eduardo M. Chavez criticises the main protagonist, Naru, for not taking "action on initial calls for distress. He then changes his mind, takes the case while always providing a perspective that is contrary to the work that he is actually assigning his staff." He also criticises the repetitive nature of the manga, saying, "every bit of paranormal, psychic and occult culture is dissected to death often repeating a few times a book".
