| @Half_Bl00d I'm really impressed that they're still finding stories to continue. Are there still urban legends even after 10 seasons? |
 |
| @RobertBobert They went over the "100 stories" already but I guess they have an infinite supply. They've gotten really stale at like 5 seasons in though, it's not interesting any more :/ |

| @Half_Bl00d It’s hard for me to accept that the project has existed for 10 years. I still remember how some episodes of the second season made me feel uncomfortable. But unfortunately, for many years now I can’t even understand the essence of some episodes, lol. |
|
| Are there any anime that have more seasons than Yami Shibai, that are also one cour in length? 12th season is kind of impressive, ngl |
| @RobertBobert Wow it really has been 10 years, I was watching it from first episode of first season as it was airing. Time flies... Looking at my scores, I liked the first and second seasons the most, after that it was it was juggling between bad before settling on plain boring. @GakutoDeathGlare This is the only thing I found that has more seasons xD |

| @Half_Bl00d I only missed 2 or 3 due to the fact that I completely forgot about it and then didn't have time to watch in the ongoing. But even if I watch it a year or two later, it's still pretty much the same show. |
|
| I'm on the 5th installment so far, it's not a bad franchise, I seem to be returning to it from time to time... not forgettable at all! 😁 |
💢   |
| Did not expect new season so soon. |
| Its like that meme "We have reached the point where we shouldn't be, but lets keep going to see what happens!" |
 |
| Great news. More Yami Shibai is always welcome |
| Genuinely who is still watching this shit |
| In the end, all girls are like the rose bride |

| @RobertBobert Japan really like urban legends. There is a tv series called "Honto ni Atta Kowai Hanashi" a live action series where actors playing the role of characters in story that base of real experience. Of course we can say that all story is fake. But also can be a little naive and say "what if this really happend?". Japanese peoples like horrors. So they can make many story as they want. |
| For real, this anime has been going on longer than most shounen,idk who keeps saying yes to more seasons like this, but I gotta give props for the anime lasting this long. |

| @VivavideoUser2x Huh, try telling someone without context or knowledge that this show has been on for 10 seasons. The uninformed will think that this is some very old and respected show with a lot of fans. |
