About Shadows House
Shadows House is a slice of life supernatural manga by Soumatou. It was first released in Weekly Young Jump in September 2018.
A colored version was simultaneously serialized by Tonari no Young Jump and the Yanjan!.
The anime takes us to the mysterious, western-style mansion populated by a clan of “Shadows”, who imitate the trappings of human aristocracy. The Shadows have no faces and are attended by “Living dolls.”
The story follows Emilyko, a doll who serves Living Shadow Kate. Apart from being her maid, Emilyko is expected to become Kate’s “face” once her mistress is old enough to be introduced to the other mansion residents.
Emilyko works hard to make Kate happy. However, daily life in the mysterious mansion isn’t that simple.
