'Shishou Series' TV Anime Planned for 2016
Shishou Series was originally published on the 2channel board in 2003. It has been serialized as a manga series since the December 2013 issue of Young King OURs magazine. Futabasha has also been publishing the work as a light novel series since 2014. Both the manga and light novels have two volumes in print.
Actor Mahiro Takasugi (Kamen Rider Gaim) was cast as an "image character" to portray what the series protagonist would look like. In the story, the protagonist is a first-year university student who comes from the countryside. He meets an upperclassman whom he calls "Master" (Shishou), and the two investigate various urban legends and psychic phenomena.

Anyways, really cool and kind of creepy PV. Seems like something to look forward to, if delivered well.
When comparing this part with this one, there is somewhat a similarity between the two. I'm not saying that the beats are an exact match, but enough to remind me a song I listened to years ago. Definitely understandable if a PV of a horror series doesn't remind you of a kpop song XD
I hear it a little I think now. Lol you must have some good ears/memory.
