Bizzare murder's happening randomly with a mysterious girl described as the key of all of the problems but is that true? In this special we discover about that mysterious girl Misaki Mei's past which clears her side of the story.

Story: 7 - We get to learn about Mei's life with her 'cousin' Fujioka and her point of view of what happened before the curse and the 'first' death. This special basically just shows us what Mei told us in Another so it isn't anything new except that this time we actually see what happens as this confirms Mei's story to be true. So basically even though there's nothing new you can watch for the 'moe' (?) factor of seeing Fujioka and Mei together.

Art: 8 - The art was pleasing as we got to see some nice views and character designs made this special worth watching.

Sound: 7 - Nothing notable but generally the soundtrack carried out it's job satisfactorily.

Character: 8 - The characters were the main point of this special as the past of a mysterious girl was revealed as we see her relationship with someone she cared for and what that person's 'illness' caused to make Mei as the aloof girl in Another.

Enjoyment: 7 - Though there was nothing new it was enjoyable as we got to see some eye-pleasing views with some emotional moments.

People who liked: Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni,Umineko No Naku Koro Ni,Elfen Lied,Shiki,Corpse Party,Mirai Nikki,Tasogare Otome X Amnesia,Dangaronpa - The animation and Denpa Teki Na Kanojo will like this series due to similarities in what's shown including the gore, disturbing moments and the emotional impact.

Overall: Overall I liked this special though it didn't make a major impact but for those who liked Mei's character this is a must watch.
