I started watching this, it's pretty good so far. It doesn't have any dubbed episodes yet, but I read somewhere that Funimation is suppose to pick up the series. This will do a better job explaining what it is/about.

Contract Payment (契約対価, Keiyaku Taika?, also referred to as "Remuneration" or "Obeisance")
True to their names, all Contractors must pay a price for using their powers, whether they wish to or not. Moreover, it seems that the amount of payment required is dependent on how much the Contractor uses his/her power. Although this payment can be delayed, especially in the midst of combat, it is ultimately unavoidable. Each Contractor has a unique remuneration, reflecting the chaotic nature of the Hell's Gate. Remunerations are typically difficult for the Contractor and range in severity from irritating to painful. However, there have been a few contractors who enjoy their remuneration and at least one who uses it in conjunction with his own ability.
Known remunerations include
Alteration of age, swiftly growing older or younger
Arranging pebbles
Drinking various fluids, such as hot milk, beer, or the blood of children
Earmarking the pages of a book
Eating various foods, such as boiled eggs
Inability to lie
Intaking and regurgitating objects
Kissing someone
Placing the shoes of the victim upside down on the ground
Regaining human feelings for a brief time
Self-mutilation or injury, including dislocating fingers and wrist-slitting
Singing a song
Sleeping
Smoking
Writing poetry
I like how it's either something mundane or bizarre or disturbing or obsessive-compulsive or emo
also at least one character has to drink a beer every time

Chairman Cat.

Well that too but it's all phonetic and stuff except Chinese people probably say NYAN or something like the Japanese do
Edit: Ahaha
A portly, ginger-haired man whose left eye is frequently shut. His contractor ability enables him to project concussive blasts from his palms. He appears to be Amber's right-hand man, carrying out operations necessary to the Evening Primrose. His remuneration is the consumption of boiled eggs - a fact he does not like due to the cholesterol in them.

The whole contractor idea of the series is really well done and its a pretty cool idea overall. This is a great series. It has a really cool plot line and is pretty deep, but if you're not even into that, its got enough cool fight scenes for the most action-savvy.

That's pretty good, thanks for sharing.

The show is pretty excellent. The developing themes later on are really well done once it breaks away from the mission based plot flow in the first part.

It was pretty awesome anime, ending was a bit anti climactic which disappointed me.
