| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Oh boy, now that's what I can an age acceleration. RIP teeth and youth. |
 |
| I applaud the person who came up with the concept. It was finally an episode that only this show could pull off, and it came out pretty rad. |
| What a terrifyingly fascinating capsule toy machine; brings back the things from a person's past while making them age simultaneously! Good one this week as well. Moral of the story: "Don't dwell in the past for long." |
 |
| Favorite episode so far! |
| I guess he was stuck in the past as life just passed him by. This was a pretty interesting episode. |
| My signature is lame... |
| It wasn't scary at all but I liked the concept of the story. |
 |
| Yeah nice concept but still the atmospheres didn't get to me. |
| Moral of the story don't lose yourself to nostalgia. |
 |
| ^Exactly. And that's a pretty good moral. One of the most important lessons in life. I liked this episode. Much, much better than the previous one. Interesting and a bit creepy :D Hope they keep up like this :) |
 |
| Pretty good moral. |
 |
| Wow. |
 |
| The best this season, followed by the locker episode. Really creepy. ReaperCreeper said: Moral of the story don't lose yourself to nostalgia. Yeah. I should teach myself that moral lol :D |

| Fuuu this opening wasn't as good as the others... It seems like the guy that tells the stories was too fast, it's not cool, I really liked the normal opening :c Nice episode. |
| Excellent episode with an underlying message! |
| This is by far the best episode this season, I loved the concept and the execution. I hope they make ore episodes like this. |
| Nice concept, but still not scary. REMEMBER NOT TO BUY GACHAPON IN JAPAN |
 |
| Well done, Yami Shibai. Maybe not the scariest, but it was a good story, and it was kind of creepy. A major step from last week nonsense |
| That was siilly |
 |
| Nice idea and message, but when I started watching this show, I expeceted something scary. I cant help but dislike this episode, even though it had a neat concept. Not scary at all. |
| Way better than the other episodes this season imo. Nice concept, I like looping themes. Lacks in atmosphere though. |
 |
| This was the first episode where I wasn't scared even while waiting to be scared. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. It was very Twilight Zone-y. Not as good as the Twilight Zone, though. |
| I understood this way too well. Those who cannot probably will once they get a few more years on them. |
| so i guess we wont be getting horror scenes anymore, solely psychological concepts, which sometimes can be scary! |

Not as good as the Twilight Zone, though. Only so much you can do in a few minutes. ReaperCreeper said: Moral of the story don't lose yourself to nostalgia. The other moral could be "curiosity killed the cat". |
| Now that was a big step up over the rest of the episodes of this season. |
 |
| "Ahh this is the eraser I lost when I was younger." I laughed. Also at the figurine. |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| Well that was actually pretty interesting if you ask me, very interesting concept! |
 |
| Similar to most posters I really liked this concept; it wasn't necessarily "scary" but lbr it was pretty creepy. Psychological stories are just as good as jumpscares c: |
 |
| Curiosity killed the cat |
 |
| Miki-chan probably went with the bad boys, that's what real life girls are, ntr machines. being old is depressing and sad. |
 |
| Not scary at all, though I have to give it to the writers, the premise was creative. 3/5 |
 |
| addiction. it kills many people every day -w- |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
| Decent concept but the execution was poor. Maybe as an episode of full lenght show this could have worked. |
| I absolutely loved the concept of this episode. The idea of being so caught up with one's past and regrets that one cannot let it go. One can obsess over it and before you know it your entire life has passed you by anf you're left with nothing and no time to change the thinglish that got you to this in the first place. |
  |
| The never-ending cycle of mid-life crisis salarymen feeding on nostalgia continues on~ Interesting. I wonder what I'd end up getting from that machine (aside from the pointless stuff I forget where I put) coz I forgot what precious stuff I've lost due ta crippling depression. |
 |
| good and creepy episode :) |
| finally a good episode very well made 9/10 Just the idea that they toy capsule gives you toys of things you lost and in return takes away your life force so by the end you are literally drained out wow. And so the cycle continues huh, i like how MC saw that old man and then became the old man himself and bystander was looking at him the same he was looking at that old man in the beginning. |
| So that thing shows you things from your childhood memories and makes you old gradually fast in the process, not exactly "scary" but certainly an idea. Who takes care of the dead bodies? |

Who takes care of the dead bodies? I think the bodies are somehow absorbed by the machine cause I think that's how the machine has unlimited supplies of miniature memories. |
 |
| This was a very interesting episode. |
 |
| My favourite episode! |
