Meh this episode was underwhelming. Just a creepy fishtank and nothing else more that excited me.

This episode kind of reminded me of that graffiti SCP where those who see it are compelled to investigate further and get closer to it only to meet their end. That being said, no, I was not startled.
My signature is lame...

traditional teenage logic if you see an abandon building your first thought is to explore it, second would be to film it. I'm starting to hate the narration it kills the mode when the narrator explains everything that's happening.

this episode wasn't scary but rather funny here is a quick summary: My friend tells me about this creepy building we go in, upon entering I go into this dark room where I hear an eerie sound, I see a fish tank there's something in it but it smells like a sewer I get closer to the tank and notice something moving so I decide to put my face closer to the water as I get closer and closer............ the end.

I think people are expecting this to be scary but if you have watched any of the prior seasons or even read season 1 synopsis, you should know its Japanese ghost stories, many of which have been told over and over in different cultures as well as Japan. Its not necessarily meant to be scary but they should be eerie, strange and somewhat spooky. If you are looking to be scared, you are probably watching the wrong series.

I enjoyed this episode and giggled while waiting for what I knew was going to happen and I guess we can all figure out what happens after the end cuts out. Bwahaha :D

The fishtank very scary!!!

If the "thing" that inside the fishtank traps the boy, then when enter the second boy the chair is not near the fishtank? the "thing" can get out the fishtank and fix furniture without wet the floor!!?? xD

Some stories are better not to be told completely. Its better to make reader feel the eerie atmosphere by giving just sketch of the events. Nicely done. Not that scary but certainly can haunt ur mind if you think about it a lot.

Yeh thats true. This narrator kind of lightened the horror mood. But what made the mood even more less eerie was the ED which does not suit the atmosphere at all.
The theme wasn't disappointing, it was the narrator and ed which ruined to some extent. But its worth acknowledging that this season offering that real yami shibai vibe - quite unlike from previous two seasons. :)

This episode wasn't creepy at all with the narrator and lack of movement.

okay if I can be honest, this was nothing scary at all.
besides, how dense can one be to, when a fish tank clearly looks suspicious, get your head close, be aware of it, and get even closer?

Didn't really like it at all. The implementation of real footage was poor and there wasn't a real scare. And the overall tension was gone from the narrator commenting every single motion, even multiple times.

1/5 to be honest

That's what I thought. The first episode was better than this.

And I hate it when the episode ends without giving any explanation. That makes the episode more confusing and definitely not scary.
Like, that other boy entered the room, said that the fish tank was gross and the narrator said 'The end'

Whaaaat? Bitch I want explanations!

The new Narrator saying the intro in an enka voice and narrating throughout the story sounded pretty awkward...

The animation in here even looks cheaper than the previous seasons. I hope it gets better eventually.

That Fish Tank was a Mimic lol

They did it, they actually did it. They managed to make new season to be even suckier than the last two. I could almost believe that they actually hold a contest at the office to see who can make the worst sequel.

Lol, what was that? Easily the worst episode in the whole series so far... This narrator is terrible as well, totally kills the mood. Not to mention the totally unfitting ending song...

Too much narration again. I guess the whole season is going to be like this so the whole season is ruined.

Ok, I'm starting to see what people mean that too much narration can kill the mood.
That + the fact that we were expecting some creepy looking fish to come out of the tank but we got two human arms instead, with pretty much no explanation as to why the fishtank creature would have human arms in the first place.

Didn't like the excess narration. Also, tbh this season probably has the worst narrator yet.

I like how they include a girl clip in the middle.

Not that scary tbh.
