Synopsis

Due to his father's job, 15-year-old Hiroshi Kuzumi and his family move to the mountain town of Jouga. While some teenagers might have to worry about fitting in or feel out of place in a new environment, Hiroshi is welcomed enthusiastically at school by most of his new classmates. In fact, it seems like they just can't get enough of him, and he makes two friends rather quickly: the clingy and overly-affectionate Isuzu Tsumuhana, who is also his neighbor; and Kaname Asagiri, who also recently moved to Jouga. All in all, Hiroshi's new life seems to be quite normal—until people start disappearing.

Hiroshi is told that the missing townsfolk have simply moved away or suddenly transferred, but he can't shake the feeling that something is wrong. Meanwhile, in the dead of night under a red moon, masked individuals led by a girl with a scythe stalk their prey in the darkened streets of Jouga. Who are they, and are any of the residents safe from their wrath?

Honestly, I don't know why this anime has such a bad score because it isn't a bad experience at all.

This show has a good story, good characters, good animation and is a great experience for those who are looking for a short and fun psycological horror anime.

In a first glance it's possible to see some similarities with Ryukishi07's other works like Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni. But as the series progresses, it shows that it has it's own ideas and themes that will be developed further and is in no way a shameless clone of it's ancestor.

The animation is mid most of the time, and ...

Mixed Feelings
Ookamikakushi isn't that great. That being said I've seen way worse and much more boring shows. I initially watched this after hearing that Ryukishi07 worked on the Visual Novel this was adapted from. I'm sure the visual novel is much much better than the anime, although to be honest I am not interested in reading it. Not because I don't like visual novels but because the story just doesn't really intrigue me enough.

Story - 5
It wasn't that great in my opinion. I had a hard time caring about anything that was going on and a lot wasn't really explained well. It seemed like they ...

I actually started watching this anime hoping for an awesome horror show. Well, I was greatly disappointed. It can hardly be called horror, and it's pretty far from awesome.


Story [3/10]

The basic story, while kind of cliche, seemed interesting enough. Well, now that I finished watching the show, I can tell it was far from interesting. First of all, the whole story was pointless. The roots of the main problem could have been eliminated long before the story would even start. But I am not going to start explaining that, it would be a spoiler. Another problem was the plot twists. It did have some of ...
