EPISODE REVIEWS

What the heck. The red eyes at the end are so scary that I think they will haunt me in real life. It was so embedded in my mind that it’s creeping me out. The story is simple, but it will leave a mark on you.

I really like seeing how they innovate with the types of cameras used to tell the story in each episode. In this one, they use a camera from the front door of the house. Special mention goes to the change in the "insurance lady's" expression; it was quite chilling.

I think the reason they use rotoscopic because it helps the series feel more distinctly like an anime, while still preserving the actors’ real facial features, which adds a layer of realism. It may not be completely unique, but it’s definitely uncommon, and it works really well in the show’s favor.
