Seven Seas Entertainment is releasing the original manga series in English and it describes the story:

Homeless and haunted by ghosts, high schooler Kogarashi thinks his luck has finally turned when he finds Yuragi-sou—a cheap boarding house that was formerly a hot springs inn, now full of super sexy, scantily clad female tenants. If Kogarashi can use his spirit abilities to banish the ghost that haunts the inn, he can even live there rent-free! But when the ghost, a beautiful teenage girl named Yuuna, appears before him, Kogarashi takes pity on her and is suddenly not so sure about the exorcism. Will he help save Yuuna from becoming an evil spirit? And what supernatural secrets do the other boarders hold?

Tsuyoshi Nagasawa (Clockwork Planet, Nyaruko: Crawling with Love!, MM!) is directing the series at XEBEC. Kyoko Taketani (key animator for Negima!, To Love Ru: Darkness) is the character designer, Hideaki Koyasu (Lance N' Masques, Three Leaves, Three Colors, GJ Club) is handling the series composition, Jin Aketagawa (To Love Ru: Darkness, Is the order a rabbit?, High School DxD) is the sound director, and Tomoki Kikuya (Squid Girl, Eromanga Sensei, Hidamari Sketch) is composing the music.

The manga launched in Weekly Shonen Jump in February 2016.
