OMAMORI HIMARI by Milan Matra

Severely allergic to felines, Yuuto Amakawa spends his mornings nursing a drippy nose courtesy of his friend Rinko’s cat. But on his sixteenth birthday, it’s not just Rinko’s pet that’s riling up his allergies (to say nothing of his hormones)! Appearing before him is Himari, a buxom, sword-wielding cat spirit in human guise, who has sworn to protect Yuuto, now the target of vengeful spirits! It’s clear that Yuuto’s allergies are the least of his problems — he’s gonna need Himari’s help if he wants to live to see his seventeenth birthday!

Sure, timid Yuuto Amakawa has his hands (and bed?!) full with his new housemate — the beguiling, sword-wielding cat spirit Himari, who has sworn to protect him from spirits out for his slayer blood! But Yuuto’s desire to coexist peacefully with the spirits his ancestors once hunted has a not-entirely-unwanted side effect — his life is suddenly chock-full of beautiful girls! He’s got a Lolita water spirit now also freeloading at his place, and he keeps finding himself in the middle of random encounters with gorgeous female spirits of all shapes and sizes. Yup, Yuuto’s got it made! That is, until a trip to his late grandparents’ house turns deadly…

With Yuuto’s slayer powers having temporarily awakened in an attempt to save Himari from herself in battle, the clumsy young warrior also regains memories from his past…of when he first met Himari! However, those present at the scene of the battle aren’t the only ones who are interested in Yuuto’s awakening. While Yuuto’s current spirit acquaintances are just keen on giving him some special intensive “training” to “awaken” him further, not all the parties interested in Yuuto are prepared to play nice! When another demon slayer storms into Yuuto’s life claiming she’s his fiancée and that she, not Himari, is the girl in his regained memories, Yuuto and Himari are thrust into a whirlwind that threatens to tear the two of them apart forever!
