I loved the attention to detail of the drawing and filming style of this anime, especially in the first episode. Each scene is framed up very artistically, to match the main character's personality. Often having the camera set behind, looking through and in reflections of the objects in the antique shop in which he worked, often giving the feeling that we are one of the trinkets looking in at the scene.

The visual style is what kept me interested in the show, but the plot line got confusing as the main character (Eiri) is transfixed by the painting of Cossette, but then a Venetian glass. He falls in love with the haunted girl of the painting and gets sucked into her world. It then takes on a Jigoku Shoujo (Hell Girl), The Grudge king of ghost haunting story.

It's a short 3 volume anime, but well worth the time to enjoy the camera shots and details and of course the adorable gothic lolita.
