Mayonaka no Occult Koumuin

Arata Miyako expects an ordinary civil-service job when he joins Shinjuku's ward office. Instead, his nighttime department handles beings known as Anothers, hidden inhabitants of the city that include yokai, angels, and demons.

Unlike his experienced coworkers, Arata can understand these creatures' speech through a rare ability called the Ears of Sand. That gift makes him a potential mediator in dangerous disputes, but communication alone cannot erase the differences between human priorities and the unfamiliar values of the supernatural world.
