| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Another 6 minute anime :( Wasn't sure what to expect. Assumed it would've been weird since the guy looked like he was holding something odd in the cover. |
 |
| Well I liked it. Too bad it's too short. Wouldnt mind seeing it in a longer version with better animation. |
| I just lol'd xD |
 |
(
| The jump scare was good. Don't see many of those in anime. This was better then expected. 4/5 |
 |
| Legitimately scary - +20 six minute episodes - -10 I loved it, but it just had to be a short... |
| What's wrong with it being a short? Not every short is shit like Teekyu or Ai Mai Mi. Furthermore, it's hard for a horror story to create suspense for 20 minutes, so this short time frame fits the purpose of this show well. Women staring at you are always able to chill me, but man. I was genuinely scared this time, haha. Conclusion was kind of weak. Don't think my heart can take more of these stories ;__; |
 |
| Surprising how good this was for 6 mins ... will keep watching ... |
| I have to say the womans face was scarier than the ghosts. Anyway, it was better than expected. |

Like Folktales of Japan, there are three short stories that make up the episode. As it is, it's just one story per episode. And a short one at that. It's just kind of sad that there will only be so little shown a week. |
| That woman creeped the fuck out me when she appeared lol |
| Woah, yeah, that was one creepy short, and works well with that style, that lady really popped. D: |

It's just kind of sad that there will only be so little shown a week. I think the effect/creepiness would be lessened in a way if they tried to do multiple stories an episode. Unlike the usual shitty comedy shows that are shorts, this show kind of needs the atmosphere/immersion. |
Pie is delicious. |
| poor animation |
 |
| so.. i don't really get the story. What exactly happened? All i know is that the talisman were attached to the guy's table at the bottom and when he suddenly ripped them up, he saw a bunch of ghosts. I really don't get it lol. Someone tell me how the story goes with that woman who got arrested. Why did she appear in his room and staring at him? |

| 4/5 for this episode. Great one for a short series. To be honest, the style used here is perfect for series like this. The colors and textures used are in between the usual anime style and reality which makes it scarier. Then there's the paper-like animation to come with that and adds to the creepy atmosphere. I don't think it would be as good as it is if it was done with better animation (like Another's animation?). I think this series will be a compilation of japanese urban legends or something. Like one story per episode. Looking forward to the next one. |
 |
| While jump scares really aren't all that scary, its nice to see something like that in anime done at a correct moment. I loved the atmosphere of this episode. Can't wait for more. |
 |
| That jump scare!! Liked this episode, defo will be checking the next |
| really creepy! xD I didn't expect Hatsune Miku for the ending song.. |
| i laughed hard when the woman got caught. she's certainly creepy, but the idea of the police catching ghosts the same way they do with criminals was absolutely funny. edit: changed "fact" to "idea" |

Someone tell me how the story goes with that woman who got arrested. Why did she appear in his room and staring at him? im guessing the talismans were the things that were keeping the ghosts away and when he ripped it off the ghosts came back,the creepy woman snuck into the guy's room in order to place the talismans under the table, so the creepy woman was actually protecting the guy lol the creepy woman was arrested for trespassing |

| Love the style, I can't wait for episode 2. The Hatsune Miku song at the end is a nice modern touch. |
| The world is the illusion of the real world. |

You're totally right! I love this animation! it's perfect for this anime. :D I was so scared!! T_T |
| dafuq did I just watch.. 7/10 for the creepiness |
 |
| Wow that was great. The atmosphere was brilliant. I really felt it. That actually scared the fuck out of me I love stories like this. Will continue. |
| That was surprisingly interesting! OMG when that girl appeared in the room that scared the crap out of me Hatsune Miku ending? ;) AWW YEAH |
akira21yun said: My thought exactly, I guess he didn't watch enough horror movie.If it was me ,I would never take the talisman ,as long as I know they always protects for something. |

I completely agree with you, friend. The animation they used set it up as if it were a storybook urban legend, especially by having it appear as an oral legend told by the masked person in the beginning. It has a childish vibe from the animation. Overall, not too bad. Reminds me a lot of Fuan no Tane. |
 |
| Loved this a lot!! I jumped haha the ending sounds like VOCALOID? I could be mistaken though. animation and time is actually perfect for this. |
 |
| I didnt look at the length of the episode at first so when it ended i was like wth? but it was a cool little ghost story, i enjoyed it. |
| It was obvious the woman was trying to help him from the moment she was arrested... But what was the point of putting a talisman on the ceiling if the ones under the table worked? But why is the woman herself scarier than the ghosts... Dafuq. |
 |
| very good 6 min horror anime..it really scare me out! |
 |
| Um, that was strange. It's so short that there really isn't much going on before it ends. I also don't like the animation. It's not exactly scary, just kind of creepy. |
 |
| FUCK. I KNEW IT, BUT STILL THAT LAST SCENE GOT ME. Pretty short, but who cares. I like it. Also, the animations are the last things that I watch in a anime, so I'm okay with it. |
 |
| Yeah it was great, I really liked how they animated the woman appearing in his room, even jumped a little.

| I liked it the old woman creeps me the fuck out lol |
 |
| That was legitimately creepy. Also Miku + |
| wow, that was good. |
| 講廢話,被撞到. |
Mayros said: poor animation it's obviously done on purpose to fill the theme of the series, and I actually think it works pretty well (or at least for the first episode) I was surprised by this as I wasn't expecting much, looking forward to the next episode... |
| Wtf? Miku is singing in the ED ;o |
