Pretty good starting episode. But with only 4 episodes I feel like a lot of things are gonna end up being rushed.

Ok, I'm down for four episodes of this. It's perfectly creepy for October.

It was an interesting opening to a horror anime with a lot of potential directions the series could go from here

It's not really an Anime, The Americanness really shows in that I could not find a sub only a dub and the writing style is not like other anime. The Mythos for horror it is using is Lovecraftian which is from America and it just feels like a adult swim show.

I was kinda shocked this was in English even though MAL lists it with its Japanese name, but after seeing that Adult Swim commisionned this that kinda made sense. Didn't know what to expect (only other horrors anime I've seen are Another and Mieruko-chan) going in, plesantly surprised coming out :P Wonder why only 4eps though..

Okay... I'm moderately interested, not gonna lie. Now let's see how they will handle the story with only three episodes at disposal.

It's a really nice set up. I wasn't sure what I expected but I do quite enjoy getting to know the characters rather than melodrama mid-awesome horror scene taking the time to fill in character development holes. I'm very curious for eps 2-4! Pretty solid start as "boring" as it was; it's nice to connect to the characters and have feelings about them before the horror begins

It was exciting seeing Yoshitoni ABe credited and went immediately downhill from there. Who the hell wrote this script? Lazy English performances aside, the dialogue is stiff as hell. It could be voiced by A-list seiyuu and still feel shitty. Nothing that these people say comes off as natural, Kimi acts like she's a toddler when she's nine, the side characters are bland and the way the conversations move feels like a chore. It's genuinely unpleasant to watch and not in the way a horror series should be.
Additionally, the premise seems extremely lazy just riffing off cthulu mythos on another quiet little island. My only hope for this show is that in the next three episodes it goes full trainwreck. Also the ED is kind of a banger.

The credits do list Japanese VAs so if the English is really a deal breaker you could watch with that, but I don't think it'll "fix" this series by any means.

This may be the first horror themed anime I've watched and I was surprised it's exclusively in English (at least as of the time of this posting). The episode was ok but with only 4 episodes total they're going to have to rush things. Curious how this will turn out and with it being October it's the right time for something spooky.

I really just disliked this episode of Housing Complex C. I saw Adult Swim Hyping up a new original Toonami Anime and I was like lets go this looks so good, but then this first episode was dog water absolutley no story development of any kind and just flat out boring. Hopefully it picks up in episode 2, because the previews looked awesome.

The english voice acting was truly horrifying. Great work by the VAs for all the wrong reasons.
The pacing is fine for a full cour anime but they only have 4 episodes, so it feels a bit slow. Abe's designs adapted here are on the same tier as Amano's designs adapted in all the new garbage, his name is involved like Gibiate. Also, weird how when the two kids are at the basement area, one person just passes between them, and they aren't even able to see who or what it is?

At least the NEET's waifu has this nice semi-mech outfit, so his taste isn't complete garbage.

By english sub you mean JP voice + eng subs or only subs? Few days ago, I watched only the opening scene and while it was still english dubbed, it did have subtitles, but after coming back to watch the entire thing, I can't find them anymore. The cat site does have subtitles.

I'm not sure anymore. I definitely saw the subs at the beginning of the episode, but same as you I didn't continue because I didn't have time. When I came back later the episode was taken down.

I really liked the first chapter because of the direct references it makes to the fishing village, as well as that mysterious character who spends locked up in his room drawing beings that do not seem to be from this world and with reference to the primordial god best known by fans and not such fans of the work of H.P.

So the story is set in August of 2000, but one of the girls has a smartphone. Quite the Chekhov's gun there, I hope.

That flashback at the start was pretty intruging. If I had to guess it seems like those people killed past life Kimi and past life Yuri's screams killed those people.

oh wow, I didn't make that connection, thanks

So Housing Complex C is an original anime mini series with the English dub airing on Toonami. On the surface it looks like everything is fine in the Kurosaki village where Housing Complex C is located, but that place has a very dark history. The Housing Complex is home to a bunch of old people and a young girl named Kimi. There's something off about Kimi, but we don't know about it yet. There seems to be an underground basement that seems to be more than just a place of storage(probably an ancient tomb/burial ground). Then you have a bunch of foreigners moving into the complex where we see another young girl named Yuri. The relationship between the locals and the foreigners is somewhat rocky as the locals don't know how to communicate or deal with foreigners which to some xenophobic behavior from the locals. This is typical with most Japanese people who aren't accustomed with dealing with foreigners especially in remote areas with mostly elderly people living there. Kimi and Yuri introduce each other and become friends and they start exploring that underground basement except they find these strange drawings. We lean that the Housing Complex is home to a shut in(hikikomori) who made those strange drawings.

sounds good in paper, after reading your essay I feel interested but the adaptation is a major disappointment, with that ugly opening and terrible voices... Anyway, this doesn't feel Japanese at all but it looks like it (anime), but that's not enough either.

This was something weird.. At this point it's difficult to tell who's supposed to be the main character - is it the painted rock or the dried up dog corpse?

Hahaha, this being a netflix AS anime those two options are very plausible you know.

TsutanaiFuun said:
Wada really said their prayers sounded demonic bruh. I'm sure there are places where people would have killed her for saying that.

nah man, if you past by a Buddhist temple in Japan you'll heard demonic sounds too, some foreigners laugh at it, not with bad intentions tho, east is weird.

Yep, this makes Another seem decent lol but not worst than mayoiga because we're still at ep 1 but still...
