Oh God those poor boys. The torment...
Rainy days are never fun. Dat ending too, holy shit.
It's like they had money to waste and decided fuck it we're going to make this guy actually fucking move, great episode though it was a very hit and miss anime but the ratio of good eps to bad eps is telling me to rate it 7/10 which then means it's the highest rating I've given out for this seasons anime... fuck.
Jesus christ, way to go out on a high note with that jump scare Yamishibai
If anyone likes some good old fashioned horror, they have no excuse not to watch this. Multiple stories to cater to different kinds of tastes that are all 3 min long
That dance at the end made me shout a tiny bit, damn that was a nutty way to finish off the series.
Overall I thought this was a decent short. Near every episode gave me goosebumps and it was just fascinating how they blended the different animation styles together to make a creepier atmosphere. 6/10 from me.
Called their friend a wimp, HE SAVED HIS OWN ASS. lol Is it just me that the last scene reminded me of a titan from AoT? My gut reaction was to laugh I'm sorry.
Wasn't that scary of an episode compared to the others. I expected Tai-chan appearing into the binoculars, so it wasn't a surprise. LOL
Good series, even on a low budget, it has beaten the other horror animes I've watched so far, like Ghost Hunt. Great use of music as well. Would I rewatch this series? Hell no. Horror freaks me out!
The last few seconds are a bit scary as the boy is looking for his friend through the binoculars. Overall rating for this series is 7/10 as some of the episodes are not well structured.

^ LOL, that must be it!
Anyway, good episode, good series. I was not expecting such unique horror stories (though I haven't seen a lot of horror films or shows in my life, in general), and the art wasn't a bad mix with the horror.
In fact, I'll probably download the series as a batch just to keep and watch whenever, since I liked their stories.
8/10 because I had a lot of fun. At the end of the episode I jumped in the air like a rabbit does. The fact that the father was calling him out caught my attention.
Anyway, low budget but still very good. I hope they'll make a new season.

For those who say the dance wasn't creepy at all I pictured it like the Elric brother's resurrected mom moving like those Silent Hill monsters that shake extremely fast (or those from Jacob's Ladder)
I wish this series had longer eps at least 10-15 minutes long so they have enough time to explain some plot so there is at least some backstory on the myths or something to give it more substance. I think the shortness of them is what helps keep them creepy so a full length series is too much possibly but this should deserve to have another season.
Instead of being scared at the end i started laughing xD. Overall for a short series this was better than i expected it to be some parts very genuinely creepy, interesting and original while others were cliche and relied on cheap stuff. I'll give it an above average 6/10
This was surprisingly scary. I was not expecting this to have such a strong impact. This particular episode didn't scare me much but the 4th, the 5th and the umbrella ones were terrible for me :)
Pretty sick ending but well I still can't believe this is rated G for all ages! The animation style was so so but well it did give some interesting atmosphere to the story and well what you do to listen to some exclusive miku songs :D
That was really awesome, i laughed so much at the dancing part, and watched it twice. Yes and i hope they will make a 2nd season, giving more background of the story.
AWESOME! I love this series. i never thought anime could actually scare the beep out of me. hah! perfect for halloween, indeed a worth watch!
watch it alone, without the lights on, fullscreen and wear them earphones.. with the right atmosphere, this little treat is an effective scare.
This last one made me laugh. Them moves!
All in all, the show was great, there were
only two I didn't LOVE, therefore I'll give it
9/10, though even 10 wouldn't be too much
A good series, overall. Even a bit underrated, in my opinion. The episodes were short, but the atmosphere was creepy. My favourites episodes were about Zanbai, elevator and the one where a couple got possessed inside a haunted building. Time for season 2!
I'm not a fan of jump scares, but they were okay. The best scares were the ones that happened so fast, there wasn't any time to even figure out what was going on. Nothing screaming. Nothing appearing. Just a sudden cut. This show reminded me that horror can still work in animation. Good stuff.
