EPISODE REVIEWS

The mood goes back and forth between calm and heavy, but it still feels tense the whole time. There’s this quiet, weirdly unsettling vibe even when nothing’s really happening. The music is subtle, and the silence kind of makes everything feel more stressful and uncertain.

This episode was a bit mysterious with different new loopholes, but coming up to this episode, the anime is going to unlock new suspense. Old Grandpa was doing something unusual out of a smooth, ongoing story.

A rather needed reprieve for all the main characters, especially the mom and the daughter. The city seems to be content with a hint of eeriness from the people, while the old man seems to be planning something rather different altogether.
