Yeah. That made me a little sad. Tarou was so full of hope and cheerful and it looked like Miyako paid no attention. Well, of course with the corpse as everything it wasn't the best place for flirting but anyway...Originally Posted by Buffalobiian
And Miyako didn't say hello back.
I wonder what the mouse experiment was. Apparently the mouse was being remote controlled by a computer program. Pretty wicked.
Something to do with Miyako, and perhaps something revealing about the term Ghost Hound. Watch to find out.
Ghost Hound - 12
Good work, Tarou! You even made Miyako smile and found out why she appeared suddenly so cold. Based on this ep there is still much hope left for him. But I had to laugh when he was carrying Miyako and then stopped at the bottom of those bloody endless stairs, looked up and sighed.
One fine aspect of this series is that despite all the supernatural phenomena the characters still all seem very realistic and believable. Great many of them for sure seem to have problems of their own yet that only gives them more personality.
+1 for Tarou, even if Miyako had to climb the last few steps herself. I was expecting some CPR back there too. Talking about realistic characters, I find it kinda funny yet creepy that the professor proudly says "I'm bound by professional discretion." then goes to a nearby sake bar and says to some stranger "I'm treating so and so, he suffers from blah blah blah." He can't drink, so he has no excuse. Miyako's drowning scene reminds me of the girl who did the same thing in the stormy river. I think it's Miyako but it could be Tarou's sister too.
Yeah, I was also laughing at the doctor. Maybe he was still in too much of a shock after seeing the strange... girl thing in the classroom. I thought he would mention something vague but he just kept going telling more and more details. I don't think his elevator was quite ascending all the way up anymore that evening. But it would be cool if it somehow ended up bringing Tarou and Miyako even closer together.
Snark the Boojum:
Episode 13 - Genjo
- - - - - -
A somewhat strange episode. Not that strange episodes would have been anything strange in this series but this one largely took place in Tarou's subconsciousness and the other worlds, and not all of those served any such purpose that I could have understood what they offered to the story. I wonder if Snark is going to appear again later. Maybe, if Tarou finds his way back to the abstract realm.
Otherwise Tarou is heading down a nice path: Peeping at Miyako in his incorporeal form. Although it's no foolproof way since Miyako can see those beings.
I thought Snark sounded like the priest, but I guess not. The priest reacted quite urgently when Tarou mentioned that phrase, guess it's got a meaning even he's afraid of, and he's more of an academic than a priest. Ogami's servant is evil. That last guy saw it. EVIL.
I think all the Ogamis are somehow evil, Makoto included. It's also somehow connected to their business model, I deem. No doubt in the past their business was even more fear based than now. However, I have to agree that servant probably had something exceptionally nasty in her mind. Let's hope nothing happens to Miyako.
Ogami's servant looked freaking scary when she smiled. I wouldn't want anything to happen to Miyako too
<3 Tessa-chan! <3 Lucifus! ....chotto mate.
Evil Servant. Bet you she killed Makoto's dad.
Genjo Ep 14 HD
edit: Well, it's not like Ghost Hound episodes aren't content filled, but this one in particular was revealing. The priest thinks Miyako is reciting texts she's read before, while the psychologist is asking her if something's going to happen. Though she said it was the Princess's words, I think she set it up somehow. Firstly, she didn't come straight away, and was instead on a phone call, while the princess's words were "Come here." And when she left Miyako, her face said "it's done." Mysterious music, beautify HD and baffling content keeps me drawn to this series.

Ghost in a Hound:
Episode 16 - Genjo
They're back!!!
Episode 17 - Genjo - NOT 720p, will update when available. They just changed from Xvid -> H264 for SD release.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
"Why are you nervous when talking to an elementary school student?" They really are playing around with this setting. Hah hah.
Damn, Tarou really screwed his game in this episode. I hope he can still fix things up somehow. Well, he had no idea that was the worst thing he could have told Miyako but it was still sad to watch.
An interesting revelation about Ogamis. Still, it was high time already, of course.
Episode 17 HD by Genjo.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Ghost Hound is not listed as "ongoing" on what I gather to be Genjo's now official site. Anyone think that it's dropped?

Well, well. I guess it's time to give up and get them from Shinsen.
Looks like the case. The batch has pretty a pathetic number of seeds, but it'll have to do:

I got them all from Shinsen's bots, on their irc channel. Didn't take long at all.
It took a change of ISP to finally get enough quota for the rest of this, but I've finally finished it.
I didn't bother rewatching the previous eps (1-17) to refresh myself, since each episode's sort of intertwined in a weird mind-warping way anyway.
Like Chrome Shelled Regios a few days ago, I didn't try to pause or figure out the details, but it was still enjoyable anyway as a "friends help each other out on a psychological journey and heal their wounds" anime.
Makoto's storyline made the most sense, followed by dad's-a-scientist guy, Taro and Miyako's in increasing order of comprehension difficulty.
In the end, I understood it to be a conspiracy involving a religion cult having influence with the underworld mixed with artificial beings screwing up the natural order.
My favourite things about this show's been the picture and music though. Picture-wise, it's always crisp and clean, accented with HD broadcasting. The music can range from weird to eerie, so that's pretty appropriate.
Not everybody's cup of tea, I should imagine, but I'd recommend it for anyone looking something not necessarily fantastic, but a bit different. Character development, most certainly.
