Popotan

ぽぽたん

A boy enters a seemingly haunted mansion and befriends three sisters and their maid who live there. They spend their days playing and having fun together. The oldest sister claims she can communicate with dandelions, which they affectionately call "popotan." These plants hold some secret the sisters are eager to uncover. One day, the boy returns to the mansion to play with the sisters and witnesses the house vanish into thin air.
