Phantom Quest Corp.

Phantom Quest Corp (幽幻怪社) is a comedy/paranormal anime involving Ayaka Kisaragi, the proprietor of a company dedicated to helping those in need of paranormal aid. The title is a play on words. Yūgen kaisha (written on the cover as 'You-Gen-Kai-Sya') means "limited liability company" in Japanese; but when written with different characters, the word yūgen can also mean "the occult."

The series was originally released as an original video animation (OVA) in Japan between August 25, 1994 and February 25, 1995.

Plot
Kisaragi is a beautiful woman descended from a long line of Japanese exorcists. However, bored with their traditions, she started her own business, Phantom Quest Corp. The headquarters of the company is Ayaka's quaint little family home, nestled between the skyscrapers of the Shinjuku district in Tokyo.

Along with the traditional knowledge she possesses, Ayaka also uses very unconventional weapons while attacking ghosts and demons. One of them is a lipstick case that turns into what appears as a laser sword. She also has earrings that explode into spiritual energy.

Although she is very competent with her skills, Kisaragi's own bad habits (overindulgence in sake, karaoke, and shopping binges) often cut into the company's meager earnings and interfere with paying the various experts whose help she usually depends upon. Also, because of her drinking, she often sleeps in bed late, which her partner and business associate Mamoru Shimesu has to find creative ways of waking her up.

Along the way, and with a little help from various spiritual specialists, Kisaragi can usually be found battling vampires, poltergeists, and cutthroat competitors bent on driving her out of business... but she's not going down without a fight!
