Like his grandmother, Natsume Reiko, Takashi has the ability to see spirits. He has inherited the Book of Friends, a book of names that no one but Reiko, Takashi, and other spirits can read. Because of Takashi's strong resemblance to Reiko, he is often mistaken for her, causing spirits who hate Reiko to chase him constantly. He has decided to dissolve the Book by giving all the names back to their owners. He is accompanied by the spirit Madara, nicknamed "Nyanko-Sensei" because of the spirit's feline appearance. Takashi has promised that he would pass the book on to Madara when he died.
