Yeah porbably nice story but horible arts.
It might be be done on purpose but to me it looks like child's drawing, as such i'm having hard time to get in to story of a episode.
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list )

I really like the art in this anime. It's unique and great for the anime's atmosphere. The story is great too.

Kind of have 'Mononoke' atmosphere to it although not as intense.

Ogin is too damn sexy though. Her alone should be enough reason to watch the whole series. ^.^

What an catchy OP song~

Anyways, I decided to give this series a shot since a friend of mine saw it awhile ago and he really enjoyed it. I love the atmosphere of this show but whoa, that puppet scared me a bit there.

Very decent start so far. It's funny they also add a little comedy with Ogin in this. Oh and she's pretty XD

First episode was alright, reminds me more of Jigoku Shoujo than Mononoke though.

It was kind of predictable but the atmosphere was really creepy.

If there's anything that was good about this episode, it would be the start.
The animation is all over the fucking place.

But if we're going to talk about bullshit, then it's appropriate to say that the sound is fucking ATROCIOUS.

THAT'S SOME FUCKING HORRENDOUS SOUND DIRECTION. It's like there's a limiter, and a REALLY bad one.

The OP and ED however, that's a completely different story.

Looks like this is going to be a really inferior Mononoke that will follow the format of Jigoku Shoujo.

Instant crap.

Soooo the animations are really bullshit. It may should help the atmosphere but to be honest it just keeps me getting confused. Hard time to understand some scenes cause of the drawings o.o

Nice first ep sury didnt catch me as much as I hoped but oh well, I think I will continue this. Not gonna let go only for some imo bad art.

It was somewhat trippy, but I enjoyed it. Yes, one could call the story predictable, but it was fairly atmospheric. The strange animation/drawing style only contributed to this.

I liked the artstyle, it set up the mood very good.
The animation on the other hand wasn't really impressive, a shame.

Wasn't a thrilling episode imo, but well, it seems that it's episodic anyway, so I hope just for a better one. And of course more from Ogin.

Ok, so, I went into this with no clue whatsoever on whatthis show might have been about, I just searched for the "horror" genre and then scrolled down a bit on the list, and I don't know what made me choose this anime over another one, but well...

This firts episode of this particular anime signs my return to the anime world, coming back from a pause of about a year.

First thing I noticed was the art.
It has the kind of artsy appeal that I really enjoy, and the atmospheres were very, very good.

The story in itself was quite dull, but the peculiar art and the strange and dark atmospheres covered that pretty well.

My favourite part of the episode were the first 10 minutes or so, until the three otherworldly guys came to the shop, from there on I thought I was witnessing to a brand new "Hell Girl" season (which I heard is coming along!! Yeah!!).

OP and ED are nothing special, imho.

On to the second episode!

Really unique and trippy visuals, perfect match for something like this and completely elevates an otherwise average story. Interesting to see what future episodes offer. Oh, and a fantastic OP

I don't really like the opening (or the ending).

The art style is weird but It has its own charm.
This does make me think of Hell Girl a bit so far. I wonder how if it's going to stay episodic like it.

- I don't know if I like or dislike the art-style.

- The story was predictable, but the atmosphere was really great.
