I was so dissapointed in this series. I am a great fan of the horror genre, and the japanese are well known for their high quality horror stories. Also setting it in feudal Japan, makes for so much material. But this wasn´t that good. At best it was mediocre, and at worst it was laughably boring. There were a few scary moments, and they had good concepts, but overall, the execution of it was very lacking, so I can´t in good concience give it more than an average.

I like this type of horror, it shows less bloodshed, more mistery and intriguing spooky story. Animation style is very artistic. I have to say main cast (seiyuu) did job perfectly! We see a three different stories. First part painted brutaly realistic, with feeling of disturbance in the story, second is fantasy horror genre with a love story and the final arc is something special. The last part is introduction for season 2.

this when i first saw this anime i was wondering if it was great or something because of the art style.

being a child and all, the graphics were strong and heavy. so i could only be pre-judice about this all because of the art style.

the story was deep and hard to take it.

commonly the heaver the style and detail it would strain the eyes and mind trying to watch. and less interesting.

gladly in less than no just watching the op of the series i immediately got hooked. that having low expectation and proven wrong.

like "gankutsuou" (read more)

I have never really watched a lot of horror anime in my life and was pretty excited to try out something new. It sounded fairly interesting at first so I decided to give it a try

The first thing that hit me was the animation. It is not of a good quality like most of the mordern anime series. This gives the impression that the series is quite old and may have been created quite some time ago.

The story is split into three short stories. There isn't much to them and they are each fairly entertaining to a certain extent. If you the kind (read more)

Don't be fooled!
When i download this anime, i was hoping for some great horror stories...instead it was a great waste of time!
I'm not saying that these aren't scary stories. I'm just saying that it ain't that scary to me! And frankly, i think all of the characters in this anime are just too damn "dense"! The story is a little confuse in a way you wonder "why the heck did he do that?!" o.0 probably i don't understand very well cause the story unfold in the ancient Japan, and their costumes are WAY~~ too diferent from european.

Anyway i saw (read more)
