href="/wiki/Yuki_Midorikawa" title="Yuki Midorikawa">Yuki Midorikawa</a>. It started in <a href="/wiki/Hakusensha" title="Hakusensha">Hakusensha</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Sh%C5%8Djo_manga" title="Shōjo manga">shōjo manga</a> magazine <a href="/wiki/LaLa_DX" title="LaLa DX">LaLa DX</a> in June 2003, where it ran until April 2008; it has been serialized in <a href="/wiki/LaLa" title="LaLa">LaLa</a> since July 2007. Its chapters have been collected in 31 <a href="/wiki/Tank%C5%8Dbon" title="Tankōbon">tankōbon</a> volumes as of September 2024. The manga is licensed for English release in North America by <a href="/wiki/Viz_Media" title="Viz Media">Viz Media</a>, which released the first volume in January 2010. The series follows Takashi Natsume, an orphan boy in his late teens who can <a href="/wiki/Extrasensory_perception" title="Extrasensory perception">perceive</a> and combat <a href="/wiki/Y%C5%8Dkai" title="Yōkai">yōkai</a>. One day, Takashi finds a very old notebook called the "Book of Friends", left by his late maternal grandmother Reiko Natsume, an <a href="/wiki/Exorcist" title="Exorcist">exorcist</a> who possessed strong spiritual powers. The notebook was used to bind dozens of powerful demonic <a href="/wiki/Japanese_deities" class="mw-redirect" title="Japanese deities">spirits</a>, both good and evil, to follow Reiko's every whim and desire if called upon. Takashi resolves to give back all the names in notebook; in the process, he joins forces with another feline/wolf-like spirit called Madara (nicknamed "Nyanko-<a href="/wiki/Sensei" title="Sensei">sensei</a>"), who knew Reiko when she was alive. Madara takes the form of an overweight cat and intends to take back the notebook after Takashi dies. Until then, he agrees to protect Takashi from the nefarious spirits who want to harm him for being the grandson of Reiko. The series has been adapted into a series <a href="/wiki/Drama_CD" class="mw-redirect" title="Drama CD">drama CDs</a>. An <a href="/wiki/Anime" title="Anime">anime</a> television series adaptation, produced by <a href="/wiki/Brain%27s_Base" title="Brain's Base">Brain's Base</a> (seasons 1–4) and <a href="/wiki/Shuka_(studio)" title="Shuka (studio)">Shuka</a> (seasons 5 onwards), have been broadcast on <a href="/wiki/TV_Tokyo" title="TV Tokyo">TV Tokyo</a> in 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2016, 2017, and 2024.

The first four seasons of the anime were licensed by <a href="/wiki/Nippon_Ichi_Software" title="Nippon Ichi Software">NIS America</a> for a North American release in 2012 and released on home video in Japanese with English subtitles. The series has also been streamed by <a href="/wiki/Crunchyroll" title="Crunchyroll">Crunchyroll</a>, who produced an English dub in 2022. By September 2023, the manga had over 16 million copies in circulation. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Story">Story</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Natsume%27s_Book_of_Friends&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Story">edit</a>]</div> For as long as he can remember, Takashi Natsume has had the rare spiritual ability to see and commune with <a href="/wiki/Y%C5%8Dkai" title="Yōkai">yōkai</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ayakashi_(y%C5%8Dkai)" title="Ayakashi (yōkai)">ayakashi</a>, inheriting the powers from his late maternal exorcist grandmother Reiko Natsume. This ability resulted in his having a lonely childhood, because children his age considered him strange. He had also been passed from one paternal relative to another. Upon her death at a young adult age, Reiko bequeathed to her grandson her "Book of Friends"—a book containing the names of hundreds of spirits she had bullied into servitude. The Book of Friends is considered a highly prized <a href="/wiki/Magic_item" title="Magic item">item</a> in the supernatural world, and such demons and spirits—both good and malicious—hunt Takashi constantly because of it. Takashi spends his time dissolving the contracts that Reiko created and releasing the various spirits that come to him. Malicious spirits, on the other hand, try to kill him to obtain possession of the book, which is where Madara (called "Nyanko-sensei" by Takashi) comes in. Madara serves as Takashi's bodyguard and spiritual advisor of sorts, even though he is ostensibly motivated by his own desire to possess the book once Takashi dies. He later begins to become more attached to Takashi, with the latter forming a similar bond with Madara (despite the latter's attempts to deny it). Takashi also finds a good friend in an <a href="/wiki/Exorcist" title="Exorcist">exorcist</a> named Shuuichi Natori, who is also one of the very few humans who is capable of perceiving and taking down spirits via certain banishing or sealing spells, but also finds a dangerous adversary in Seiji Matoba, who has plans for Takashi to join him and his nefarious clan of exorcists. Takashi is determined to release all of the names before the conniving Matoba clan or other malicious spirits attempt to use it for their own gain as he tries to learn whatever he can about his maternal grandmother and the strong spiritual connection they share. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Characters">Characters</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Natsume%27s_Book_of_Friends&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Characters">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Main_characters">Main characters</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Natsume%27s_Book_of_Friends&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Main characters">edit</a>]</div> <dl><dt>Takashi Natsume (夏目貴志, Natsume Takashi)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Hiroshi_Kamiya" title="Hiroshi Kamiya">Hiroshi Kamiya</a>,<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> <a href="/wiki/Ayumi_Fujimura" title="Ayumi Fujimura">Ayumi Fujimura</a> (young)<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); <a href="/wiki/Adam_Gibbs" title="Adam Gibbs">Adam Gibbs</a>,<a href="#cite_note-dub-5">[4]</a> Paige Guillory (young)<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-6S-6">[5]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>Takashi is a high school teenage boy.

He inherits Reiko's "Book of Friends", a powerful ledger of ayakashi names, which she collected by defeating them. Holding a yōkai's name grants control over them, making the book extremely dangerous. Due to his resemblance to Reiko, yōkai often confuse Takashi for her, some seeking revenge, others wanting their names back, or simply yearning for connection. Takashi chooses to return these names, learning more about Reiko and the spiritual bond they share. He is aided by the yōkai Madara, who wants the book upon Takashi's death. Orphaned young, Takashi grew up with distant relatives who found his ability to see yōkai odd. He eventually moves in with the kind Fujiwaras, hiding his powers to avoid burdening them. Despite his gentle demeanor, Takashi possesses immense spiritual power, able to purify yōkai with ease. His abilities attract the attention of exorcists, especially Seiji Matoba, who seeks to exploit Takashi's unique abilities as the grandson of the renowned but mysterious self-taught exorcist Reiko Natsume.</dd> <dd>Takashi's spiritual energy is temporarily drained each time he releases a yōkai's name, and he often sees their memories, gaining deeper insight into Reiko's life. His powers make him a target for both yōkai and exorcists, though he remains determined to follow his own path, seeking understanding and peace with the spirit world.</dd> <dt>Madara (斑) / "Nyanko-<a href="/wiki/Sensei" title="Sensei">sensei</a>" (ニャンコ先生, "Master Kitty-Cat")</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Kazuhiko_Inoue" title="Kazuhiko Inoue">Kazuhiko Inoue</a>,<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> <a href="/wiki/Sanae_Kobayashi" title="Sanae Kobayashi">Sanae Kobayashi</a> (as high school girl)<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); Christopher Wehkamp<a href="#cite_note-dub-5">[4]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>A mysterious <a href="/wiki/Inugami" title="Inugami">inugami</a>.

Because Madara was trapped in a material form for so long, Madara ordinarily takes on the shape of a <a href="/wiki/Maneki-neko" title="Maneki-neko">maneki-neko</a> (lucky cat), leading Takashi to nickname him Nyanko-sensei. In this form, other people can see him, leading for Takashi having to ask his guardians if he could keep him as a pet. He is a powerful ayakashi,who protects Takashi from others and teaches him spells on occasion, in return for Takashi's promise to give him the Book of Friends when he dies, so Madara often complains when Takashi returns other yōkai's names, saying that at this rate there will be nothing left in the Book when Takashi dies. They often fight each other, which leads to Takashi punching Madara on the face and knocking him out. But as the story progresses, Madara takes a liking to Takashi. Despite his protests of not being a cat, he likes to play with cat toys. Nyanko's design is based on a lucky cat statue Midorikawa was given as a child.<a href="#cite_note-7">[6]</a></dd> <dd>Madara is implied to have had a close relationship with Reiko in both her teenage and young adult years til her premature death underneath a tree, which is implied to be one of the reasons he is content to be Takashi's yōkai companion until the end of his own fleeting human life.</dd> <dt>Reiko Natsume (夏目レイコ, Natsume Reiko)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: Sanae Kobayashi<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); <a href="/wiki/Alexis_Tipton" title="Alexis Tipton">Alexis Tipton</a><a href="#cite_note-dub-5">[4]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>Takashi's late maternal grandmother. A powerful spiritualist, she believed no human could ever understand her, so she turned to the invisible spirits for companionship, playing games with them.

Reiko gathered said aliases in her Book of Friends, and commanded most spirits to follow her every whim, with the exception of Madara, whom she seemed to have been quite close with.</dd> <dd>Madara mentioned that she had sloppy table manners and was very forgetful most times. Reiko died when she was a young adult underneath a tree, so no one remembered her, which was what she had wanted. Her legacy and fame throughout the supernatural world still remains strong as her innate spiritual might was feared and greatly intriguing to both yōkai and exorcists alike, which is why they are so interested in her one-and-only grandchild who possesses the exact same high level of spiritual power she possessed.</dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Yowake_High_School">Yowake High School</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Natsume%27s_Book_of_Friends&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Yowake High School">edit</a>]</div> <dl><dt>Kaname Tanuma (田沼要, Tanuma Kaname)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Kazuma_Horie" title="Kazuma Horie">Kazuma Horie</a><a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); Tyson Rinehart<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-6S-6">[5]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>An student that had recently moved into the area.

Nishimura has a crush on Taki, but thinks that she and Takashi are going out.</dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Exorcists">Exorcists</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Natsume%27s_Book_of_Friends&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Exorcists">edit</a>]</div> <dl><dt>Shuuichi Natori (名取周一, Natori Shūichi)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Akira_Ishida" title="Akira Ishida">Akira Ishida</a>,<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> <a href="/wiki/Fuyuka_Oura" class="mw-redirect" title="Fuyuka Oura">Fuyuka Oura</a> (young)<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); Aaron Roberts<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-6S-6">[5]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>A man who is also able to see spirits. He is a famous actor and exorcist and has a lizard birthmark that moves around on his body. He has the ability to manipulate paper dolls (Shikigami) and has three spirits under his command. Takashi tends to disapprove of his forceful exorcism methods. When Natori is first introduced, he hated spirits for his horrible childhood. But, after meeting Takashi, he gradually softens even though his ways are not much different. Over the course of meeting Takashi, Natori developed concern for his wellbeing, for he tends to be too softhearted and reckless when it involves fellow exorcists or spirits with malicious intent alike. However, he does acknowledge that Takashi may even be much more powerful than himself or even those strongest of the nefarious Matoba clan. He is later told about Reiko and her Book of Friends by Takashi, who thinks that such an old artifact as powerful as it is dangerous would be better off burned, but keeps its existence for Takashi's sake.</dd> <dt>Seiji Matoba (的場静司, Matoba Seiji)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Junichi_Suwabe" title="Junichi Suwabe">Junichi Suwabe</a><a href="#cite_note-9">[8]</a> (Japanese); Reagan Murdock<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-4S-10">[9]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>The head of the Matoba clan. A coldhearted yet levelheaded young man, Seiji is a topmost-level exorcist who does not mind sacrificing innocent yōkai to reach his goals. Although he wants stronger yōkai to protect humans, he will not hesitate in hurting anyone who gets in his way. He is mostly seen armed with a bow and arrow, which he uses to eliminate yōkai. There is a scar on his right eye, covered by an eye patch with a certain protection spell on it, due to an ancestor offering his eye to a yōkai for assistance but ended up breaking his promise. This causes later heads of the clan to have their eye targeted by that yōkai, and the distrust from other clans. After his first encounter with Takashi, he immediately takes great interest in him, and even later asks him to join the Matoba clan since finding out he is the grandson of Reiko herself.</dd> <dt>Nanase (七瀬)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Mika_Doi" title="Mika Doi">Mika Doi</a>,<a href="#cite_note-11">[10]</a> <a href="/w/index.php?title=Yoriko_Nagata&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Yoriko Nagata (page does not exist)">Yoriko Nagata</a> [<a href="https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%B0%B8%E7%94%B0%E4%BE%9D%E5%AD%90" class="extiw" title="ja:永田依子">ja</a>] (young)<a href="#cite_note-12">[11]</a> (Japanese); Laurie Steele<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-6S-6">[5]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>An elder member of the Matoba clan who serves as the current head's secretary and assistant.</dd></dl> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Recurring_yōkai">Recurring yōkai</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Natsume%27s_Book_of_Friends&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Recurring yōkai">edit</a>]</div> <dl><dt>Hiiragi (柊)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Satsuki_Yukino" title="Satsuki Yukino">Satsuki Yukino</a><a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); <a href="/wiki/Jill_Harris" title="Jill Harris">Jill Harris</a><a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-6S-6">[5]</a> (English)</dd> <dd></dd> <dt>One-Eyed Middle Class Yōkai / "Chukyu A" (一つ目の中級妖怪, Hitotsume no Chūkyū Yōkai) and Ox-Faced Middle Class Yōkai / "Chukyu B" (牛顔の中級妖怪, Ushi-gao no Chūkyū Yōkai)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Takashi_Matsuyama_(actor)" title="Takashi Matsuyama (actor)">Takashi Matsuyama</a><a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Hiroshi_Shimozaki&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Hiroshi Shimozaki (page does not exist)">Hiroshi Shimozaki</a> [<a href="https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%B8%8B%E5%B4%8E%E7%B4%98%E5%8F%B2" class="extiw" title="ja:下崎紘史">ja</a>]<a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); Brian Mathis<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-7S-13">[12]</a> and Greg Dulcie<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-7S-13">[12]</a> (English)</dd> <dt>Hinoe (ヒノエ)</dt> <dd>Voiced by: <a href="/wiki/Akemi_Okamura" title="Akemi Okamura">Akemi Okamura</a><a href="#cite_note-BTVA-4">[3]</a> (Japanese); Molly Searcy<a href="#cite_note-EN-Dub-6S-6">[5]</a> (English)</dd> <dd>A powerful yōkai whose form is a blue-haired human woman.
