Oooh, I hope they can successfully adapt the manga's unique art style. I hope the Vcomic cast get to reprise their role for the anime.

EDIT: Just saw the main site. If that's the anime art then there's nothing to worry about. It looks great.

Finally..

Unfortunately, I have yet to read the manga and have no clue what it is about except that the synopsis sounds like Biohazard minus the zombies. On the contrary, it might be more like Biohazard and Ga-Rei crossover. Anyhow, I am looking forward to it as of now. The least to say, I am looking forward to see the seiyuu cast and also the promotional trailer.

Ono sensei's animated works: Ghost Hunt & 12 Kokki were both very good
Hope the animator would keep this one with high standard too.

FUCK YES FUCK YES FUCK YES FUCK YES FUCK YES!


Seriously :3


THere's so much WIN, that my brain is going to explode from the great news stated in this thread :3

Now if only other manga I like would be animated(like High-school of The Dead or Fairy Cube :3)

Now the only what if is IF the animators will be able to portray the art correctly (like the negative-inverted truck driver or "under your bed" moments)

I can only hope that scenes like this:(slight spoilers)


Will look great and faithful...

Thankfully no.

In no way its similar to such mediocrity as Higurashi.

Its more like...welll think of Ito Junji works(like Uzumaki) crossed with unique and macabre art style and classic vampire horror lore. That's Shiki.

I just caught up and the manga is great.

And it's nothing like Higurashi. At all. I find it a lot better than Higurashi, too.

Anyway, looking forward to the adaptation.

I think you'd better read the manga anyway. The anime might make some modifications.
