Seemed pretty good, I'm looking forward to seeing more.
Even though it isn't 'scary' per se for a horror, horror isn't necessarily scary to begin with.

Enjoyed it. It had this creepiness throughout it, especially considering how the characters acted.

Also, Mei. <3 "Sa-ka-ki-ba-ra-kun"

If the next episode is good I'm going to shift it onto medium priority.

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me

Haha this Anime is freakin creepy! Like all the little cuts with the dolls is freaky. The eyes remind me of Hanairo but thats probably because the producers are P.A Works who also made that anime.

I wonder what's the thing they haven't told Sakakibara. I mean apart from the fact that Misaki is already dead. Hmmm.

Can I ask? What exactly so bad about Ali Project? Did they do something bad in the past? Some problem with their music? Or you guys just says so because all of the cool-kids says so?

First ep' was OK.
Decent introduction into the characters and all seems quite cute, though too much effort has been put into making this 'creepy'...
There was zero atomsphere as; 'darkness' is what we would expect, hospitals are always portrayed as sinister, there was no eerie scenery, and I'm sure we all expected a 'mystery' past off the bat, plus I for one like dolls.
Again, too cute to be creepy, but other then that, an interesting 4/5.
Seriously, I must be getting old as this doesn't creep me out. :(

Pretty fucking awesome first episode.

Sakakibara... Hinamizawa? Eh... it's a stretch.

Mei reminds me of a cross between Rei Ayanami (especially with the eye patch) and Ai Enma--except she talks more. I'm so for it.

OP was meh, but had a cool sequence to go with it. ED was alright. OST is legit.

Sexy animation, as one can expect from P.A. Works.

Seems interesting so far.

The animation is stunning! The story is so mysterious and vague, had me on the edge of my seat just waiting for something to happen. :S
Can't wait to see how the story unfolds with Misaki and the rest of Class 3. o__o

Annoying OP, but the anime has a good atmosphere, though I don't think the character styling really fits with the whole "horror" genre. ED was LIGHT YEARS better than the OP. Will keep watching. I BETTER GET SCARED AT SOME POINT!

I've been looking forward to this anime, & the first episode did not disappoint! Gorgeous, crisp animation with a rich palette; very easy on the eyes. The story already has me hooked!


Loved the art, the backgrounds are great and contribute to the erie feeling. I always felt like something scary was going to pop out even though I read the manga. on the edge of my seat.

It was strange to me how Mei wouldn't just tell Kouichi what was going on "You'll find out soon enough"
Just tell me what's up so i'm not suprised later lol (I guess I have too many real life expectations)

meh. boring.

nothing really pumped up my interest. If they're trying to set up the atmosphere they failed. most characters were supposed to be strange but they seemed flat to me. the random flashes of dolls weren't even creepy. and lol the horrible OP. For a moment there I thought I was watching rozen maiden.

I'm giving this a chance though.

If this was live-action maybe it would appeal to me more. Only a few horror animes were actually done properly, the rest relied on blood and other (not even scary) stuffs.

I, for one, loved the opening and the ending. But anyway, this is a great start to this anime. It gave me a chill.

And was anyone else at little freaked out on how his classmates were acting when he introduced himself? But then afterwards they were cheerful. Also, the short cuts to the dolls. Wtf was up with that?

I can't wait for the next episode.

Let's see. . . I don't really know what to think of this. I was really looking forward to this series since it was announced. I'm not a horror fan, but I'm a sucker for mysteries and. . . I guess I'm curious about the horror genre in general since I barely ever watch it.

I'm feeling a bit neutral about the premiere though.
It just didn't really grab me. In fact, I was feeling pretty bored throughout. And I'm not entirely sure why. The mystery itself isn't too compelling so far either, I think.

But I'll stick around for at least a while longer for this series; hopefully it'll draw me in by then. Horror/mystery always seem to have slower starts, anyhow. Which just makes the later parts more exciting, so the payoff is worth it in the end, I guess.

I don't know what to expect though, at the very least. I'm not horror genre savvy in any way lol. I did get the feeling that . . . everyone was dying slowly or something like that, though. (I mean, all of the sickness?) Perhaps not physically, but emotionally and mentally as well.

Oh, the scenery is gorgeous, as expected of P.A. Works. And the dolls were creepy. So creepy. I'm just not good with dolls and certain puppets in general, though. . . But they're definitely an important motif. I wonder what it means. And I hope they don't try to compare Misaki with dolls . . . If it's something I can think of, then it's no good www.

What a mysterious and dark setting, plus its got a pretty depressing mood along with it. I love it. The art and animation is so smooth.

Hmm... her other half? And wonder what's up with Akazawa, shes pretty cute tbh.

Umm... I don't sense any creepiness from Episode One. Probably because I've been watching too much other horror shows. Great music though. Am I the only one here who likes the OP? I never watched Code Geass so I don't know how Ali Project sounds like in other anime but the song they performed for this one is just fine for me.

the first episode was...okay. I didnt expect a whole lot being that the premise of the anime is mystery/supernatural, but there wasn't a ton to go on. Lots of questions to be answered for sure, but nothing really stood as distinctive or impressive to me. Mayb it will grow on me as we go along, I'll stick with it......for now.*cue anticlimatic laugh*Muahahahahahaha
