Synopsis
In the administrative domain of the underworld, order is maintained with ruthless efficiency thanks to the precise oversight of Hozuki, the chief aide to Lord Enma, the sovereign of Hell. Whether counseling the legendary folk hero Momotarou or entertaining envoys from the Christian-influenced infernal realm, Hozuki makes certain that operations proceed without a hitch, prepared to figuratively demolish any obstacle. An expert in tight control, possessing bargaining talents comparable to an experienced Wall Street broker, "Hozuki's Coolheadedness" follows the cruel yet collected Hozuki as he manages his everyday chores in preserving harmony within the afterlife. With a supporting cast of familiar figures from Japanese folklore and East Asian legends filling numerous administrative roles, this out-of-time dark comedy presents a novel perspective on the notion of "employer liability." After all, what could possibly be difficult about supervising a labor force from Hell?
