The episode honestly bored me... Felt like a freaking Goosebumps twist, "She was dead all along!!"

Found this one pretty interesting. Such a nice ghost to give her friend one last chance. This season in general is a nice step back up.
Sieg Zeon!

I didn't really care about this one, but the way it played out and the way it ultimately ended was really disturbing.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

This was honestly the first kinda good yami shibai episode since forever. Not all that scary, but there was a lot of character in such a short timespan.

I was expecting her to kill herself in a "copy this" fashion, but surprise, she's already dead.

this was more of a creepy stalker story if anything. Talk about dedication copying someone since childhood even the way she died was nothing more than a reenactment. I called it dedication earlier but what I really mean is how unoriginal. I'm surprised the mc didn't say they didn't have the same kind of boyfriend and the next day she has the same type of boyfriend as her I don't know I just thought that would be interesting if it happened. I'll be honest if that happened to me I would say F#@K this and F#@K you.

I definitely didn't see that one coming. I thought the copy-cat girl would be the ghost.
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you!

I honestly agree, so far this season has been pretty weak for me on the whole, with only 1 ("The Crow Children") out of 4 being decent so far; but still not even close to the quality of the previous seasons.

I was expecting a single white female type situation to happen, kind of like that ghost kid in one of the previous epjsodes, but knowing that she's dead already was a nice twist. That level or dedication is something else.

The real twist was that the sequel series managed to have a decent episode.

While it wasn't exactly creepy or scary, I liked how this episode was handled.
It was relatively clear what went on, and I actually liked how the spooky scary ghost wasn't malevolent and was actually caring.
This honestly doesn't even belong in Yami Shibai maybe. Could even expand on this and make it its own series.

Did anyone else notice that the girl doing the copying is in the credits? The pigtails and the silhouette of the traffic light make me pretty sure.

I was wondering who all of these people in the credits were!

The woman from episode 2 is in there as well, the one who gives a broach and lipstick to that creepy girl.

She admired her friend so much that she gone insane when she died and started talking to herself thinking that she's still there to the point of wanting to be with her even in death with a 6th Sense twist. The pain of losing a friend...

...wow. this is legitimately the first episode in many many episodes to really creep me out like the Season 1 episodes did. this was so well done! why can't all the episodes be on this level of quality man!

at first i thought she did that safely to make her imitate her and get rid of her, then it turns out she died and the friend was hallucinating the whole episode. pretty well done guys :)

Ok, I guess this was a good episode in the sense that it left me thinking about, since it left me a bit confused at the end.

That was pretty confusing. Not sure what really happened though lol

I guess Yukari can see Haru-chan as a ghost?

Why did Haru kill herself? Did she want Yukari to copy her again and then get herself killed?
