Clocking out... what was that again?
By Katsuki Mitsumori
Profile
A spirit that forgot the meaning of 'quitting time' and took up residence in the office. The moment the fluorescent lights start to flicker, it's already in the seat beside you. It watches anyone who leaves on time with a faint, almost dazzled envy. A haunting familiar to everyone crushed by overtime, burnout, and after-hours stress.

The Overtime Wraith embodies the everyday frustration of "work." Bottled-up feelings only grow heavier. The moment you feel it, give it a name and write it out — that is the quickest way to make it lighter. Noroi Nikki is a completely private place to do exactly that.
