THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- There was a nice balance between the comedy moments and the more serious scenes, not too much of one as to mitigate the effects of the other. Quite a bit of "moe" as well, for people who are into that. The music and animation were good, and overall it was a fun one. That is, until the ending. I'm not sure what happened there. He nonchalantly watched the girl die, then it looks like he replaced her (hair style, etc.) with the spider girl. I'm not sure what was behind the screen in that shop either. It felt like they aimed for a twist ending for shock value, and failed to deliver any sort of impact. If someone has an explanation for it, please enlighten me. Until then, that was a horrible ending. Modified by MissileSoup, 05-11-12, 3:02 AM |

Oh my. This was brilliant. The shopkeeper said it was over if he got caught in the web, which happened. You could see the blue under the guy's eyes, which means he wasn't himself anymore. He snapped out of it before because the girl got hurt, but after he got caught in the web again he was being controlled(?) again. I was quite surprised of it. The only thing that was completly out of place was that thing behind the screen in that shop. My guess is that it's another monster of such legend. I remember Buta having a somewhat open ending as well. |

screw spiders! They amazed me how they are disgusting no watter in what form. I felt really bad for the girl to get caught in all of this (She was the one who break the seal though...)! And that's a bad ending, I thought the point of all of this was to find a way to bring her back to the book but it disappointed me. I mean... that's what you get when you tried to save someone? I like the animation very much though. The movements of the characters in the old mansion were very fluid and it was fun to watch and the ED was very beautiful!

Oh the twist... Very nice direction (especially the whole part in the old mansion), great animation and an highly unexpected ending made it a must watch for any short animation fan. This was simply brilliant (and unfortunate for the lead character). |

He snapped out of it before because the girl got hurt, but after he got caught in the web again he was being controlled(?) again. I caught that blue spark, but it didn't cross my mind that he was being controlled as it wasn't present and he seemed normal while on the web. Also because he still retained some reactions, yet when she fell it was minimal. I did had a feeling he was being charmed or whatnot, but it was still odd and felt inconsistent. I'm also disappointed that the story in the book didn't play a large part, after all the time they spent on it. And that monster behind the screen still felt unnecessary. Personally, I still don't like the ending, not because of how it ended, but how it was done. Thanks for affirming some points. |

me while watching this: (ó.ò) (^_^) . . . (^_^) (o_O) (ಠ_ಠ) (ಠ益ಠ) (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ (ಥ_ಥ) Anyway, for those asking the one behind the curtain is a slime. I can't help but feel this was at least somewhat inspired from "Inui Takemaru"s "Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou". At first it was just a series of independent color manga pages(nsfw) about 8 (IIRC) brothers each living with a monster girlfriend. Now I see this is actually a manga in its own right. It's a sort of prequel to those pages and it is less hentai. Back to Wasurenagumo, RAAAAGEEEE, they killed the girl!!!! |

..... I knew that little thing is no good... but.. WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THE ENDING!!! FUCK!!! I don't know how to rate this... I was very happy with the show, the animation when they're moving around the manor is just amazing. I like the cute little monster girl, though she show sign of evilness in her. And she charm the dude by instinct... BUT TO FEED THE GIRL TO HER MOTHER?!?! ...... 7/10 I guess... ![]() |

O.o How about the little one? I was under the impression that if anything, it'll be the little one who possesses the girl, because she laugh "Keee". ![]() |

This spider girl is able to change her appearance(or at least how she looks to others) as seen in this scene, when she watches the moon. I really liked this show. I often had the feeling, this could be a great full length movie or 13-episode show. at least i want a sequel to this. The ending is really unsatisfying(though a great trolling xD) and damn, i love this ending song ! Often it is not "2deep4u", but some people just being "2dumb4this" |

This was pretty darn good for a young animators project. Honestly my biggest gripe was the noise the spider girl was making, possibly the most unappealing sound I've ever experienced. "I don't post in every MAL thread, I just post where I post." - Hanekawa Tsubasa |
