From [Midnight Scans](https://www.mangaupdates.com/groups.html?id=1953): As a 15 year old without any relatives, Mei's dream is to save up money and have her own house. She successfully applies for the position of the Tachibana House's eldest daughter of a pseudofamily game, which seeks family members. For one year only a family of 5, who are absolute strangers, will live together under one roof?!
Alternate story featuring Nico as the daughter of a family that owns a butcher shop and Maki as one of their regular customers.
One day, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky. Magatama (evil spirits) spilled out from it, transformed into demonic corpses using living creatures as vessels, and began attacking the human world. Orbs appeared to counter these, and those who obtained them became Slayers, tasked with protecting this world. Arata, an 11-year-old boy, obtained the jet-black Orb of Soot, which is not one of the five Slayer attributes. An outcast who cannot be assigned to any attribute, Arata honed his power to control soot, which eventually became a weapon that would shake the world.
A side story to [Space Adventure Cobra](https://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=3158) and the final Cobra manga to be done in black and white.
