The story of Let’s go Kaikigumi revolves around the nameless protagonist, a boy who’s six times more sensitive and vulnerable to supernatural phenomena than the normal person. One day, he meets a mysterious girl named Mechako, the leader of an organisation named Kaikigumi, whose job is to police the behaviour of unruly ghosts and monsters, and save humans from them. Somehow, the scaredy cat protagonist gets roped into helping Mechako rebuild the glory of Kaikigumi as spooky shenanigans ensue.
