Nene Yashiro, a student who loves the occult and dreams of romance, ventures into this haunted toilet… but the Hanako-san she meets is nothing like she imagined! Hanako-san, from Kamome Academy, is a boy!

The anime Toilet-Bound Hanako-Kun is based on a Japanese urban legend about a ghost that inhabits bathrooms, mainly in schools.

The original story differs from the anime in that Hanako really is a girl, usually wearing a red dress or skirt and a short haircut. Also, she is far from a good figure, as anyone who summons her ends up dying a horrible death.

The legend began circulating in the 1950s when World War II was still plaguing the Japanese.

Some say that she is the spirit of a girl who was killed in an air raid while playing hide and seek. Others that she was killed by a stranger or even an abusive father in the school bathroom.
