Kurokami-sama no Bansan begins with the protagonist, who belongs to the Society for the Study of the Unusual.

Translation Notes (Angelus Victor):
Society for the Study of the Unusual = best translation for 怪異研究会
Kurokamisama = Literally means Black Goddess in here, but given the term is in Katakana, that there are images of a Kurokamisama herself, and the “English title” at the bottom of the Japanese logo leaves the term as is, I just left it like that.
