Gosick is a comedy/parody series

I had checked the tags, the synopsis, and the reviews trying to gauge if it was something I wanted to watch or not, and that turned out to be a complete waste of time ‘cause none of those could even figure out what fucking genre the show was in. It’s a parody of Edgar Allan Poe style horror/mystery, every scene is played for laughs. The closest to helpful, ironically, was a negative review comparing it to Scooby-Doo (albeit it went completely over the reviewer’s head that that’s exactly what the show was aiming to be).
So, yeah, the series is anime Scooby-Doo. Just getting this out for those who check the series pages looking for helpful info like I do.
