Synopsis: Set within the Send-Off Department of the Japanese Angel Federation, Dandelion follows “Angels” Tetsuo Tanba and Misaki Kurogane as they scramble to track down Earthbound spirits — souls unable to move on and find peace — and gently guide them to pass on.
Tetsuo is a foul-mouthed man with a constant scowl who may seem apathetic at first glance, but shows deep compassion as he listens and offers support to spirits.
Misaki is the leader of the 21st Division’s Dandelion Clan. Despite her youthful, girl-like appearance, Misaki is a formidable force, rumored to have laid to rest the legendary soul of Musashi Miyamoto.
The angels find themselves struggling to meet their daily tasks. However, Tetsuo and Misaki choose to take things at their own pace: instead of rushing through cases, they take time with each spirit, listening to their regrets and helping them resolve what’s holding them back.
Based on the manga by Hideaki Sorachi.
