Personal comments: This is the most highly anticipated new anime for me that comes out from this season. For starter, the author of the original story is Fuyumi Ono (
小野不由美), the author behind 12 Kingdoms and Ghost Hunt. That alone would be enough reason to follow it all the way to the end. On top of that, being a horror story is another plus as I am a huge fan of horror genre (horror, not gore).
