A short, low-budget horror anime. It's hard to write a review about it since it only has 6 episodes total with 10 minutes per episode. It's more like an introduction to the series with an already confirmed sequel on the way. First off it's important to mention that the animation is really cheap, it's more like a middle ground between anime and manhwa. It's not bad by any means, but you will definitely feel the lack of budget they had to work with. The art style and the drawing itself is fine, it's the animation that's lacking. The story so far is nothing complicated, with a 60minute runtime we basically can get a hold of the situation and how the anime is going to look like going forward. Without spoiling too much it's a looper horror. There's not much to say about the characters as they're not explored yet, in these short episodes the focus was more on "what is going on?". I like that there aren't many jump scares, those are cheap in my opinion. It's definitely not the scariest horror out there, but it has some intense moments and the anime might be a bit closer to suspense than to horror. It's not gonna rock your world but it's not bad by any means, it just takes an open mind to give it a try. Once you get used to the (lack of) animation it's pretty enjoyable and keep in mind that you can watch the entire thing in just 60 minutes.
