| To catch up with everything there is to know so far, you should watch this great video by Whang explaining the mystery! To summon it up, in 2015 there was a thread on 4chan's /x/ board where people talked about things they've found in the deep web and one person recalls finding an extremely grotesque anime about some girls who stay locked inside of a bathroom and end up killing each other in some very graphic ways. People have been trying to find this anime ever since. I'm bringing the mystery here because Whang's video has ignited my interest in it, and it has for a lot of other people too. I figured posting this here could potentially give us more leads. There's a subreddit dedicated to solving this mystery (https://www.reddit.com/r/SakiSanobashi/). If you wanna help, please join! Or, post whatever possible leads you may have in this thread! Any bit helps! |
| Finally got around to watching the video, and I must say, this is a really interesting case! I've never come across a lost anime type incident, so I'll definitely be keeping up to date with it. |
| Sounds sickening and depraved. Gonna keep my eyes on this mystery. |
  ♡ Harder Daddy ♡ |
| Awesome video, hoping we can get more of this and like this, fingers crossed. |

I tried checking MAL to see if there was a category or synopsis for it, but i went nowhere with it. Maybe if there's a big lead in the case, i'll try to see what i can find. |

| Sounds like an uninteresting creepypasta, anime won't simply disappear into thin air and suddenly be mentioned like this in some 4chan page. When you factor in that the content is supposedly so-super-gorey and "so shocking" then it's just all the less interesting and more obvious that this is fake. If it was that shocking in the first place it wouldn't go unnoticed. |
 |
| Taking all the information into consideration, it's hard to argue that the OP didn't just make it all up. The intriguing part, at least for me, is how well the person tapped into the public unconscious, so many people are so invested in it, and I too can see the artistic merit in an OVA like that if executed well (no pun intended). Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if some artist out there could easily do a successful Kickstarter to make it. |

If it was that shocking in the first place it wouldn't go unnoticed. That's true... BUT, this isn't the first time a story like this has popped up, and you know what? Those other times, the stories turned out to be true! Such as the clock man and that Halloween Nickelodeon movie. Many people gave up in the search for those halfway through simply dismissing it as some shitty creepy pasta, but those who didn't give up the search ended up finding out that they did exist. The Nickelodeon movie specifically took like 10 years to be found! Proving that it is completely possible for something like this to exist. If it's an 80s or 90s OVA, it could very well be just some really obscure anime made by some amateur nobody, or maybe it's the work of someone famous which has simply gone unnoticed. The real difficulty in this case is the fact that it's a foreign piece of media. In the case of clock man or the Halloween movie, we were able to find them mainly because they were English pieces of media and were probably created in the same country that they were being searched on, but in this case, it's an obscure anime that might not have any English search results on google. There might be people who remember this anime but they might be Japanese and have no idea that there's people in the west trying to find it. The best place to find obscure anime is actually not on the internet! It's in thrift shops and VHS stores... the latter of which barely exists anymore, which is obviously not going to be good for our search. |
| Reminder that there have been really nasty obscure shit films from Japan at that age like Naked Blood or Meat Doll so there's like a chance of it ever existing. |
DeathDrager said: I don't have a great memory of the things i've watched and sometimes my brain over-exaggerate things. But i'm sure i've seen it back then.... And it isn't really anything horrifying or "traumatizing" like the original poster said There are animes with much more effed up stuff in them There is a manga or doujoshin of a girl getting amputated for pleasure by herself. The original anon was most likely a 14 year old going through an edgy deepweb phase and didn't anticipate stumbling upon guro. |

| Unlikely it exists because there just is no evidence at all and considering it started with a 4chan post and no one has even given an actual URL of where it was they claimed tp see it which tells us it's likely just trolling. If it does exist it should be assumed it's not called anything that has been suggested and those were just troll replies. |

If it does exist it should be assumed it's not called anything that has been suggested and those were just troll replies. It is very possible that it does exist. A LOT of guro anime from the 80s is lost due to censorship issues that have come along the years, and most of it didn't make it anywhere near the internet (and if it did, it most likely got deleted and didn't get archived). Also yeah, it's pretty much accepted that Saki Sanobashi is not the real name of this anime and we won't find it by searching it that way. |
| Slightly offtopic , but I guess you mean dark web and not deep web, deep web consists of things that can't be found through a google search(or any other search engine). For example I can't look up your bank account balance or your MAL 'edit profile' page. Now im suspicious about that 4chan thread because they don't even know the difference between deep and dark web -_- |

Just because it's a plausible plot and just because media sometimes gets lost isn't evidence it existed. I could just make up a plot myself if I wanted and a simple backstory and someone will think that could have existed too. |

| I'm really into mysteries myself, but this is 99,99 % a hoax made for lolz and attention. Stop please, Whang's video was pretty interesting but it explained everything pretty well- thing doesn't exist. Unlike ClockMan's case, there is almost no one who remembers the thing, just OP on 4chan or Reddit (veeeery convincing) and a lot of trolls. No actual proof. |

| Sounds interesting. But I'll just watch from the sidelines because that's how I've always been when it comes to something like this. |
| Sounds like a plot similar to the 2009 film Hunger - a survival horror which plays on claustrophobia and deprivation. It also reminds me of the story about the creator behind "Midori" actively trying to ditch it and any association with it, and it almost crossed this threshold into lost media until it was recovered mostly unedited and uploaded worldwide. As a horror fan it's something which piques my interest, considering dearth of horror in anime. But the cardinal rule is that a daring premise absolutely does not guarantee a great final product of a show which actually delivers on it. Lost media is a big problem in general though. That's something you still hear about concerning the Doctor Who episodes from the 60s, and I always find it incredible anything past the silent film era can really vanish into oblivion as far as we know, but it has happened. Plus a lot of anime although thankfully not lost, have only raws available and either zero subtitles or atrocious ones (or just left unfinished). |
| So obscurity is trending. Like Whatever. |
 |
| I doubt this anime exists, but would be pleased if it did. |
 |
| Has it been confirmed fake? https://youtu.be/EvyC2-0CE7M?t=1208 This video was about this "lost anime", and apparently the op was just trolling around when first talking about this. |

| It's definitely fake. If anyone ever says something is "lost media" and gives a dark, ridiculous description, then it 100% cannot be real. |
  |
| While it mostly likely confirmed fake i'm still interested if there truly are some lost anime that may have been never released publicaly or can be found somewhere in deep web itself |
Figva said: While it mostly likely confirmed fake i'm still interested if there truly are some lost anime that may have been never released publicaly or can be found somewhere in deep web itself I know for a fact that there does exist lost anime out there! And how do I know this? Because this isn't the first time the topic of a lost anime has been brought up, and in those other times, it has been found! Example: |
| Just learned about this, gonna share it here since this thread got posted in again recently. This is extremely likely to be fake. The (alleged) original author of the post came out and confirmed it (hyperlinked here) |

| Years have passed and I'm yet to discover if this thing is even real. |
| Yeah, this whole thing was basically debunked by the OP who originally started the Saki Sanobashi myth (Somewhere, I don't remember exactly where). I'm surprised that this thread is still getting traction. |
Opinions are opinions, and differing opinions can co-exist. 🙂 But I don't do debate, life's too short to spend time debating people.  |
| Just imagine how much anime that have gotten lost to time and never got that much attention like this one. |
 |
| I honestly think this whole search is a misremembrance or a combination of different horror anime that the OP had seen at the time they made the original post meaning we wont ever find it. I did learn everything I could about the search though last year so if new info has since come to light I am open to changing my opinion. |
