| Ooooooooooooohhhh!!! I am shocked again O.o""" Poor Mizuno (nurse) ><"" such a terrible death ><" This accident and the previous one left me speechless, shocked, & sad ><" This anime attracted me even though I am not a fan of horror animes ^^" Yukari.. Mizuno.. RIP... justinas said: Poor nurse, she should have taken the stairs. It's healthy and stuff like that, you know. No, I don't think it is a good idea -_-" Last epi (epi-3) Yukari died on the stairs ! ><" So it is a bad suggestion .. haha :P |
amrxrz said: Nice catch with the shadow.After seeing everyone discussed the OP and ED might show us some clue, I tried to review them. And what I found was in the OP, after the falling chandelier and creepy librarian guy part OP ep 1,2,3 - Yukari was shown OP ep 4 - replaced with the nurse's brother Better pay attention to the next OP ;) Yeah the OP seems to be giving hints to who's the next victim, hmm well I am gunna be looking out for that the next episode and see if the theory is really true. |

It is really basic physics lol. I will answer in forces, final speed, and energy that was released. All I got to say is many of these things are based on averages. Only read if you like math and physics lol wow ur smart. XD i hate math lol but thanks!! :DD |
"Wait for the signal, and I'll meet you after dark" |
| T_T This reminds me of Higurashi but instead of mad lunatic curse here is cursed accident deaths -.- ... ...... But amazing anime!! Its kinda sad ! But i hope anime will end good with curse getting lifted |
 |
| the sudden death in episode 3 blew my mind along with the straight up revelation that mei doesnt exist. but now if its just gonna be 1 death per episode, tatll be kinda boring. i like the unexpectedness of this show and i want that to continue. and plus, the characters are seemingly indifferent after the death of the first girl. they need to start taking ppl dying seriously and like do something abt it. if it just continues llike this itll be kinda boring anyways, the nurse's death was expected but i guess the way she died was well portrayed. i hope this show can surprise me more, and i hope i cant just predict what will hapen. |

| After this episode, I feel a bit scared to enter elevators ^^" haha |
DMK said: i knew that nurse was going to die! there has to be something that causes those incidents (incl. the glass incident) hm....the story says that each month, someone dies, does that someone have to be a Class 3 student?, if so, then how could Mizuno's death be explained? They mentioned that each month someone will die.. and said that the victim can be a student from this cursed class or a relative of one of the students (Parents or siblings).. and as you know Mizuno had a brother in this class.. I hope that I answered your question :) ^^ |
Akimi-kun said: After this episode, I feel a bit scared to enter elevators ^^" haha Well there is a chance for this to happen... Every time you enter elevator you risk it. But it happens rarely so no need to worry :D |
|
witchhuntress said: Also, if the curse doesn't take effect every year...Then... 26 years ago from 1998=NOTHING HAPPENED 25 years ago from 1998=SOMETHING HAPPENED? & 1997=NOTHING HAPPENED 1998=SOMETHING HAPPENED They kinda hinted some rules in play for the curse to activate. For example they keep stressing that the class rooms rules need to be upheld. I'm guessing breaking school rules such as turning up late results in the curse activating etc... |
BlackListHunter said: so the school puts some innocent looking children in a class to die? Oh yeah I was wondering! on which basis the students of this class were selected to be in this cursed class?! ^^" Still they didn't mention it yet -_-" |
| ^^ kinda silly that they didn't tihnk about the safety of the students but like the countermeasurers said they kinda don't want anything to do with it and leave it up to students that's why twin tails was so mad because she was sick the first day. |
 |
DMK said: i guess that quite explains it the last date mentioned was June 6, so apparently Mizuno died around that date. wait a minute!, i think this explains Fujioka's death! there's one thing that's confusing me, that dollhouse, what are those dolls? also, there's a doll that fell on it's own, could that be referring to the next victim? oh, at the part when they mentioned the date June 6, I felt that they were scared.. not completely scared.. but they said that they need to be away from troubles.. something like this ^^".. I didn't understand it completely.. but maybe because in Japanese culture number (6) is considered as the devils number.. and especially if it was three numbers of (6) like this >> (666).. but in the episode it was June 6 (6-6).. so maybe they considered it as a cursed day and that something bad might happen, so it is better to stay away from troubles.. Maybe ^^".. About the falling doll, I really got scared ><" I hate dolls.. But, in the epi, this doll might have fallen accidentally or maybe because there is a spirit inside it that moved it... As you know, Dolls are empty from inside (hollow), so spirits can enter it and move it.. and Mei last epi I think told Kouichi to stay away from dolls because they wants spirits to enter their empty body.. |
DMK said: wait a minute!, i think this explains Fujioka's death! What do you mean? ^^" |

DMK said: hm....interesting it's all starting to get connected together. Mei said that her other eye sees what should not be seen, she also said something about hollow dolls,this possibly means that Mei can see the spirits haunting these dolls,right? hmmmmm^^" It is a very difficult question.. haha.. well I don't know.. but maybe it is true.. |
Gogetters said: note to self, get the fuck out of that townI liked her... Note to self - Never take old rusty elevators. |
Immahnoob said: Jizzy, I know you have no idea how to argue for shit, tokiyashiro said: Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| I really liked that Nurse. Since I was little, I was afraid of using elevators... Now I can't use them anymore haha. I'm loving that anime... I don't know why, when they die I start to laugh a few moments later. |
| Now every time an episode finishes, I remain shocked and speechless for a few seconds. |
     |
| man i was really squirming while they were chatting next to that glass pane, this show really keeps you on edge |
| man the deaths are brutal xD i did see it comming previous episode (when the girl died in a brutal way haha) and i'm sure they are going to kill all the nice chars (glasses girl No. 1, nice nurse No.2,...) and i think i know who's next in line (or maybe not the next but she'll get her final destination) :( oh and the part with the window/glass was a bit obvious :D |

| I love how this series is turning out. I have a theory that all of the girls that get close to Sakakibara in any way are going to be targeted my Misaki/the curse. I wrote a full review of this episode on my blog c: |
| Uuh, this show really started getting creepy to watch late at night. :s So everyone is gonna die one after another, huh? ohoho I wonder who's gonna die next~ |
| Nuu, the nurse died. She was cool. I'm really not liking the way the conversations often have the chars talking about "it" but not ever saying what "it" is. They do this a lot with all kinds of things in this show. Very cheap tactic from the scriptwriters. Also, if class 3 had problems like this in the past, there's no way they wouldn't have closed class 3 down by now. They're just asking for their kids to die, which is ridiculous. Ignoring all these glaring flaws, I like this show. Good atmosphere and good suspense. |
 |
| all i can say after the nurse's death is GODAMMIT GODAMMIT GODAMMIT GODAMMIT NOOOOOOO NO NONONONONNOOOOO!!!!!!! why did she had to die T_T i hated this episode :'( |

| *Sigh*... I was hoping it wouldn't be an anime version of Final Destination... there had BETTER be some kind of kickass twist toward the end or else I'll be very disappointed. |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| This anime should have been entitled " The Another....Final Destination " |
| always knew the nurse was going to die so far, only girls have died. i wonder if the next will be a boy |
 |
| Really nice episode. Well, the ending at least, but this only gives us more material to theorize what is going to happen next. I felt that the nurse's death was much more realistic than the glasses chick. The umbrella impalement was a slow and painful death, while the sudden impact of hitting the elevator floor was sudden and quick. Me like the elevator death more, plus it's more brutal IMO. :P I await the next ep. |
| When the nurse's face hit the ground hard, I literally said to myself, "Holy shit." That was completely unexpected. But on the other hand, this show is getting more and more interesting, I think I'm liking this anime. :O |
| hmm this is rather depressing !! :( but oh well we just have to wait and see what they gonna do next :O |
Sir_Lexa said: Wordsmith said: EDIT: Poor nurse, she should have taken the stairs. It's healthy and stuff like that, you know. Sure, the girl with glasses from ep3 can attest to that :) LOL xD Just goes to show that neither the stairs nor the elevator is safe anymore :( Might as well just jump off the building XD |

Akimi-kun said: It is true. I saw IRL movie about that. Girl gets a eye transplant and she could see ghosts. DMK said: hm....interesting it's all starting to get connected together.

It's hard to determine what the eye does exactly but we do know it's from a doll and even which one. Based on that and where it came from IMO it's cursed so perhaps that eye curses you or just plain sucks away your life. If I remind myself after Kouichi stared too long at eye was he not weaker more? |
| Wow, I took a bit longer than usual to see this episode, like a day or too, and this discussion have 13 pages already AND I got spoiled on twitter about the nurse's death with this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Mo4bbLEfCEk (I've stopped it at 3 seconds when I saw it was from epi 4 but too late, could see that coming already). I guess that means lots of people loving this series just as me. What I really like in all this is how from the "winter season 2012" list I could already think this would be that awesome. Well, main thing so we won't fall into boring and foreseeable patterns here - there's countermeasures being made / sis said something important like "abide to class rules", must be related to countermeasures, a way to stop the deaths / Misaki Mei said to Sakakibara to take care in school, as if she doesn't want him to die but may not be able to avoid danger to him, so she might be a ghost or whatever and still not be the villain killing everyone. So, one death per episode end or not this series can still get a great unique ride if they play all those cards well... |
| Great episode. Can't believe the nurse died -_- noooooooooooooooooooooooo |
| HOLY SHIT |
| Btw, I've just saw this elsewhere... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmloyCC7MOY&feature=player_embedded lol |

You meant "The Eye," an Asian movie, right? ^^ Well, when I heard about Mei's reason, I was thinking that maybe she can see "dead people who pretend they're not dead". It's quite a lame ability, but it could be a plausible "The Sixth Sense" reference...although it would be anachronistic since the latter movie was released the year after 1998. Hmmm I really have a feeling that for Mei's eye to be sort of downplayed...is a trick. It might be a really important device in all of this curse thing going on. And...I do feel for Kazami (cute glasses guy). He must have been absent...because of severe heartache. It's really sad for him. |
 "Belief is the death of intelligence." ~Robert Anton Wilson~ |
| Yep, this anime is pulling me in more and more. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON AND WHY EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT IT AND WONT TELL KOUICHI! That ending just makes me want to watch until the end. Amazing episode. |
justinas said: Wordsmith said: Poor nurse, she should have taken the stairs. It's healthy and stuff like that, you know. Sure, the girl with glasses from ep3 can attest to that :) LOL. Damn i liked the nurse too and she had to die a gruesome death. |
| Expecting more gruesome deaths as each episode goes by. This horror series is picking up quite well. |
