Crazy episode. Well, I guess it's to be expected with this animu. For a moment I was really hoping crazy execution bitch would be the next to go, I can't stand how they still seriously listen to her, even though it's clear as day she is one of the most mentally disturbed in the group. But, oh well, I won't miss glasses jerk either. Assuming he's really gone.

Now, I know it's not supposed to be funny, they're being chased by elements from really bad experiences, but... A giant blob of silicone? Really dude? WTF.

i think Mitsumune isn't his name , in Episode 1 Hayato said : what's with your name (Mitsumune) or somthing like that , later in the same episode Masaki tells him that she likes his name then he cries , i think that's weird enough.

Well it got even worse than previous episodes were hinting..

And maybe there's something wrong with me because when I heard word Oppai, first thing which came into my mind was Saitama's T-shirt.

I also didn't quite get why lovepon immediately went towards "execution" as her mode of release. Did she even TRY to talk to anybody?! One neighbour closing the door on her doesn't really equal social abandonment on a level that requires her to become a sociopath...

And by the way...Masaki is a ghost...maybe...because Koharun did research on her, without ever announcing that she planned anything like that or had doubts on her...


I completely agree regarding Lovepon. Her Mother definitely had a poor excuse. All those years and she couldn't attempt to get a job while he's beating your daughter. I could understand the girl being twisted, but not her never trying to reach out or try to do for herself once she got to be a teenager. Been to Japan and the independence level of even elementary school kids is quite impressive. Most of all, why stand there close enough to watch him fall on the bottle where he could catch up to you at his weight?

Regarding Masaki, if you ever watch til the very end, you may remember the chick in the yellow hoodie recalling that Masaki actually puked on the bus. This might have been the end of episode 3. They brought up her being a ghost in ep.5. I was wondering why that mattered then. Ghosts don't vomit.

... And then, when people will ask what was the weirdest anime I saw, I'll go on and tell them "well, you see, there was this one series in which one of the characters was chased by a gigantic silicon boob and that was apparently scary as shit", and they won't be able to beat this one, not even in a thousand years*.

Seriously though, how can one write something like that, look at the script and say "yeah, this is it, this gonna be good"?

* nah, I'm actually pretty sure there are weirder anime than Mayoiga, but come on. Silicon boob. SILICON. BOOB. I just... I just can't.

I actually liked this ep. And I feel bad both for Lovepon and Nyanta. And a bit for Mikage though I still dislike him. Didn't actually expect Masaki to be a ghost. Maybe Mitsumune is also a ghost or something? :D I mean the flashback in ep. 1 and now in the preview...

I didn't get the idea that Misaki was a ghost. And, I honestly font get how nearly everyone thinks she is. Nothing in all of this weirdness that I am seeing, is suggesting that she is dead.
Has something to do with this crap? Yes.
Possibly the missing girl from the village? Yes.
Knows what's happening? Yup!
May feel (or be) that she is the reason for all of this (or feel responsibility for it).... YES!
Dead...? No. I have seen nothing to suggest it.

The military guy. That's just unbelievably stupid. So stupid it is beyond words. Seriously...... Implants? Really? He just needs to die. He's so stupid.
It would have made more sense if his fear was of boobs, and it was because his Aunt Tilly had huge ones and smothered him in suffocating hugs....

My grandfather had flat feet in ww2.
He couldn't get into the military at first because of that.
He kept harassing the recruiter and was finally let in anyway. Couldn't military/boob implant guy just try that? Or find a rack and stretch himself?

The cat/bee girl. She's already annoying. Has been annoying me for some time. Could she have done something other than piss off the bullies? I don't know, like get help? Report them?
I was severely bullied in school. To the point of being suicidal. But, really, she was not in a bad enough situation where that's all she could do. Unless there's more to her lame background than what we saw.

Lovpon. The same thing. Why did she seek no help? Yeah, he was a priest. And..…. its not like there are any.... bad....... >_>........ priests.... Anywhere.... Right..... >_>........ <_<... Anyone........... >_>........ <_<............
Yeaaaaah.......
There was nothing else she could do, aside from uselessly obsessing over killing him. And making lame (that fall would not have likely been enough to do much more than piss him off) attempts at killing him
And then transfers that to obsessing over anyone else who apparently wrongs her, in ANY way, whatsoever..... At all.

The guy with the laughter... Are they even trying to get our sympathies? For any of these characters? Why bother doing any flash backs of them. I have more sympathy for Jack-the-bully-killer and the Val-whatever-his-name-is, dude, that Koharun seems to be getting attached to.

I don't know what to think about Tokimune(sp?).

I'm mostly sticking with this because I like a few (small few) characters.

Also, I'm curious:

Why did the bus driver see his dead daughter, if everyone else is seeing their fears. What did he do to her?

Likewise, why a zombie penguin-toy?

Who's shadow do we see in the opening with Misaki? It looks like a guy.... I think.

Where did Koharun pill up that book so suddenly?
Yeah, sure, it was just lying around.....
What's the deal with that song, too?

Does Lion really see people who are about to die? What does she see when looking at everyone else?
Does she not see them until they are on their way out?

My thoughts on Misaki:
She ran away, is connected to what's happening.
Knows how to stop it (that shadow is likely at its source), and is trying to do so.

That's what I'm interested in and why I'm still watching.

I'm not sure how I feel about this episode. These flashbacks were waaaay more interesting than watching the dumbest characters ever doing pointless things. I was like hell yeah finally this anime shows something evaluable. But then we went back to the original storyline which is as stupid as always, (why the hell would Misaki be a ghost?) sooo meh I don't know. Best episode so far, but when I say best I mean the least crap.

I guess it was one of the most boring episode so far for me. It's like the atmosphre in the prewious ones was more and more chilly, but it was ruined by this ghost-scare-thing. Int he previous one girl saying she saw a giant Misumune was kinda... weird and ruining the mode? But these things are just nonsense for me. Like I get Lovepon scare-thing and feel bad for her, the bee was acceptable, but that breast thing?.... and happy train? I was feeling like they ran out of ideas. And the 20- minute episode showed like what? 10 minutes of they life? And flashbacks made the entire episode messy.

yes, but if you look at this like that... she was bullied and yet she gets bees? Feels like they took an easy patch here

It makes sense, but I would have liked the backstory to be a bit more interesting than "ohno, bullies". A bee allergy was all I could think of. It's still an alright background, though.

Don't tell me we will get more flashbacks of some mob characters I don't even care.. Urgh..

At least it confirmed that almost all things they heard and saw were illusions.

And this is precisely why you don't have a cast of 30+ characters in a 12 episode series. Cramming multiple 3 minute sob stories doesn't make me care for the characters at all, especially not with how ridiculous they were. Execute-girl sees her mother getting beat, so she instantly starts chanting "execute!" for the rest of her life? Survival-guy gets a head implant to make the cut and now he's scared of silocone?

Lol alright then.
It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether!

By the way, it's also another nice episode with some past details about some of the characters here but when I heard they revealing one by one about Masaki's profile, I cried a bit. Knowing that, they assumed her to be a "ghost". :'(

Nice confirmation of the previous episode, their fears indeed materialize as illusions on this location. Now we need to be served a good reason for it.

The researcher seems terribly good in his activity but rather forgetful to not immediately hand out such informations (instead of waiting the sixth episode). The way she also makes her conclusions is... I still didn't get it. She must have a big intelligence aura to get people to trust her insane logic and think the girl is a ghost. Waiting to know what Masaki's link with the surroundings.

I can't help but think of Stephen King's IT, which also took many forms. I'm not surprised by that end Masaki reveal, but is it really as simple as her being a ghost, or is there more?

It's not. This show is basically a crappy horror show mixed with slice-of-life backstory telling. And it's not one of those "so bad it's good" either, unfortunately. Though it's close...

I can let pass the abusive priest, the giant bee and the edgy Thomas the Tank Engine, but the CGI silicon boob monster was too much. This is getting "better and better" each episode.

Nyanta's past (and Megane-kun's past to an extent) was genuinely sad, but the past of the other two is truly ridiculous. Especially Love-pon, who became crazy just because she became obsessed with killing that priest. Still best girl, though.

The end implies Masaki is a ghost... I'm not sure, would be too sudden.

What the shit did I just watch? I really like the idea that the monster is whatever thing you've buried in your mind and you have to confront it. Maybe this village really is a purgatory where you have to confront your live to move on. Remember me of another popular anime, and the monster reminds me of a certain popular TV series from several years ago....

Oh so that's cool, they each see and experience their own fears followed by the back story.
So Nyanta was a giant grotesque bee,
Mikage was being laughed at,
Lovepon was the mask that represented her abusive father,
Jiqoku was some weird silicone gross thing,
and apparently Maimai was a giant Mitsumune.
Interesting. I hope we get to see everyone else's and to know more about their back stories.

So... it's a shitty Silent Hill anime.

I mean, I see what they're going for, but the execution is awful, no pun intended.

There's a few good shots here, though, when the characters is staring off and you can see from just their expression that they're seeing something horrible, but it's ruined when you see them being comically chased by some shitty CGI monster.

You know, I'd be more sympathetic with military guy if the manifestation of his fear wasn't a giant tub of silicone that has some semblance to breasts.

That's all I'm gonna say, because this show doesn't deserve any more.

LMAO at the next door neighbor. He closed that door like "Nope."
LMAO at Lovepon trying to hide what she said.
Now Nyanta.
Give Nyanta her bag back.
lol at Nyanta after she shot her.
Damn. Nyanta got caught.
WTF! She really wrote all that.
Is that a nipple?
WTF is that?

"Don't play the hindsight game with us."
Me: That guy would be excellent at AnimeSins.

Damn. Mikage screwed up.
Naana, Maimai, and Nettaiya looking so fine.
LMFAO Koharun euro-stepped Dahara.
Masaki is a ghost?

Koharun side stepped Dahara like:

Okay, this is easily the best episode. We got some backstories and they are far more interesting than actual story/actual characters.

Still nothing great, but man... it was kind of interesting. Taking everything into consideration this was a huge improvement.

Lovepon should hate old, bald guys or religious people not wanting to "execute" everybody. Somehow I do not see the connection.

The bee girl should be severly damaged after this. I am pretty sure she should have some scars.

Military guy is quite interesting and weird. I like it for WTF-factor.

Mikage is such an stupid ass. I was glad he got rekted. So much arrogance. His boss was a respectable man. He gave him a chance. He fucked it up because he was arrogant. This mistake would have never happened if he had worked with an assistent.

Masaki is definitely a ghost or something like this - she is not seeing anything at all.

I didn't realize the boob implant monster was a boob. I thought it was a big grub at first, like he had to eat them for his military training. (I ate one once: it looked worse than it tasted).

I actually thought the other monsters were scary in a Yami Shibai way.

A lot of info on one episode. Should've told some earlier so I could care about the characters before now.
