poor nurse. seemed obvious she was next. her brother is probably gonna go to. I don't know why they just didn't explain things to him since his "rule breaking" is screwing things up?

This is now my favorite spring-only running anime. o.O

And I hope it isn't one death an episode, otherwise things would get really predictable.

Other than what I said in my previous post I have four points about Mizuno’s death to mention of why the heck is it so amazing!

First Mizuno’s face in fear and it impacting and due to the force being like it is in the spoiler
was sick insane! I am losing myself.


Second, when they showed it the front in the spoiler
that alpha fuck in my brain. Wow the details and realism of this from the perspective of gravity and the way it felt. Wow, this is amazing for horror. The splatter and all was incredibly well.

Third point is the how the elevator was shown when it crashed. The dust and all but most of all the blood flow in the spoiler
that was sick ass. Same sick ass as with Yukari. It goes such gruesome chill. *goosebumps*

Last point is Mizuno’s hand in the spoiler
that broke me. I though of her like in the following,

, her talk with Kouichi and how happy she was. And now if you will excuse me I need to get a beer and smoke. The GIFs must be done of this for Mei’s club. The impact is OVER 9000 to what I had in the manga. Never would I think something like this would be pulled.

This is sick ass shit that only Ringu IMO can equal. I will post links and stuff on my original post later on but I do have a elevator in my place. SHIT! Taking stairs for at least till this is over. I swear!

R.I.P. Mizuno Sanae. You were pretty while you lasted.

poor nurse complete bystander of situation too ): when they were discussing over lunch, i thought frick she's gonna die and there she goes. also i know there wouldn't be a plot w/o kouichi being a dumbass poking around in matters, but geez get a clue he's pretty damn dimwitted for all these hints that people around him give

So really, I'm starting to believe that Mei actually exist, being that she said she won't go to school after the incident, sounding like she expects some kind of retribution. Then the whole class starts to kind of ignoring the main chara too.

Now I'm more and more interested in the "legend" from 26 year ago because there's just so much info missing from it and it's link to the curse that's going on. I WANT TO LEARN THE MECHANICS! (sorry, my MMO side got out there for a second)

Who made that? Yeah the cast is as big as the theater group one of Ring 0. We still cannot take all those people into account of death but let's see if any of them escapes town. I assume that is when the effect weakens.

That Kou-chan. Not only he has to mess with things not meant to be messed with, but he also doesn't have any common sense when interacting with his surroundings. His classmates are talking about not messing with things that don't exist and are all secretive about everything, and he shouts "Mei Misaki does exist!" boldly in the middle of the school. That's beyond naivete...

No would know. the problem is that if you talk too much the shit kills you through any means.

The glass part was the best example. The first person IMO is the shit (I call it like that because it's a bastard spirit that slaughters less I know its reason for the slaughter) and it was watching the Nurse already. Maybe it was out to get Kouichi himself.

That is quite shocking because in the manga none of that is around. It's a foreshadow that it wants Kouichi dead. It could Ayano but it might be also both.

Anyway calling now that the spirit has elemental control means. At least in the wind area to have done the glass falling incident.

This is how it went for me.... they layed down the story that someone will die every month... his next checkup will be on a sat which is 6th, aka a new month... i already knew she was gonna die next coz i read the effing wiki article :/ was still looking for wad to it. Also when the glass fell my first thought was, final destination lol, then i was like when she started screamed i really feel sorry for that class now as i know they are gonna die or family members are going to die. Another thing, i now think strongly it never happened years before because everyone ignored a person connected with misaki but that idiot had to go and acknowledge Misaki Mei and now the events are happening again as he started it like 26 years ago by talking to her and now the other class started seeing her one by one :/ When The umbrella girl saw her she knew this was the curse starting HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA. i love this. If they make a second season i want to see what happened 26 years ago too (: <333

I think the use of showing death of someone using an elevator is used into scaring lazy children into using the stairs to get exercise to prevent obesity.

Also I laughed so fucking hard.

Oh cmon not the nurse, she was like the best character since she was like the only character who wasn't all scared/ depressed... Ugh this anime is making me constantly think something bad is going to happen at any moment. Any little thing that anyone does is making me think ohmygawd don't do it or your gonna die nooooooo! Then I go phew and10 secs later, the cycle repeats. Dis anime. Well now it seems almost certain at least one character is going to die an episode. :(

Damn it I blame Kouichi for getting her involved in this lol. Why does he gotta keep going back to that doll shop, its so creepy.

i love how the beginning was a suspenseful recap and then BAM!!! the out-of-place OP kills the mood completely xDDD

this episode was going pretty smoothly, with plenty of strange occurrences building tension throughout the episode. and then the nurse's death at the end just blew everything away!!! what a gruesome death, with the face and whatnot. :S
So im guessing a character is going to die every episode now because of the curse :\

and misaki is so damn mysterious. i really cant tell if she's the ghost of the misaki who died 26 years ago, or some strange girl who's actually alive, or etc....

really loving this series, keeps delivering every week

Alrighty, watching this anime in sunlight from now on. those creepy doll transition pictures really get to you after a while..

anyways, it saddens me that this whole event could've been avoided by just telling him about the whole thing beforehand.. now everyone's dying and it's just a huge mess. an entertaining mess though :D

i really wonder if the acting girl was really supposed to have died there..or if the glass falling was just a coincidence. if she cheated death or not. she was horrified though.. "I DONT WANNA DIE" so yeah. weird though cause she didn't even mention misaki or anything. makes you wonder..

The only one you can safely attach to is Mei whom I love with passion. Dark passion so to say. Her horror works makes Sadako run off. They are far more gruesome and gory.

i rewatched episode 3 and then I realized when the main is talking to "misaki"outside the class just before the first death, she said that she is misaki´s cousin but that makes no sense whatsoever cuzz misaki died 26 years ago however the main didn´t react to this statement, is he idiot or does he suffers from attention deficit just as me?

I thought it was an okay episode. This series is predictable though. This guy is going to indirectly kill off alot of people. This series is just too familiar with many films and tv shows.

I will continue watching this series however, I don't expect it to be mind blowing.

Its too bad, I liked the nurse. A fun character to watch. Its only logical to predict something bad will happen to her.
