It has a nice flow and stillness at different moments, conveying the mystery of your perfect fantasy small town where anything can happen, almost begging for a horror monster to descend upon it. .... The other place where the animators go all in is with the horror elements, specifically with the nebulous physical form of whatever is pretending to be Hikaru, a creepy local crying out in warning, and the panicked buildup to a murder. It all made my skin crawl.

It may not be the happiest tale, but it is a heartwrenching and human one (supernat[u]ral monsters and all), so if you’re feeling brave and hungry for quality content, do yourselves a favor and STREAM IT!
