Shiki: Corpse Demon

[masamuneehs]

So, of course I have found only one of the newest animes (outside of fansubbing) in the past month, to be anything more than mediocre, and, of course, it's the one that doesn't have a topic on this forum.

GotWoot? how far you have fallen!

During a fiercely hot summer in Sotoba, a peaceful and quiet village with a population of 1300 people, a series of bizarre deaths begin to occur. At the same time, a strange family moves into a long abandoned mansion in the region.

I've been watching the episodes from a group called 'Umee' This is not one you're going to want from bad groups, because it is heavy on time-stamps, and name printings.

edit - the good Vampiric Minion Kraco has found umee torrents. See below.

Good cast, music, and proper use of SFX. Art style is crisp and often gets the spooky aspect dead on. Premise and execution are gold, and I like most of the characters. Pacing is a bit wacky, especially in the first episode. Surprisingly funny at times. This is my pick for 'serious anime of the summer'. In fact, I think it's the only serious anime of the summer...
