I'm guessing that the industry in general is too safely conservative for even that most of the time. Shuffle! lol

Captain Invictus posted:it's very good and ends well Gotta reiterate, "Ookami Shounen wa Kyou mo Uso o Kasaneru" is one of those absolutely blessed arcs of manga. Has an actual arc that happens over a relitively short span of chapters, with an actual ending that actually felt was planned as a complete story from beginning to end. Will throughly recommend to anyone. It's given me the impetus to move on to the anime Wandering Son. Yes I know that it's not the same type of story, but it was the portion with the sibling that I felt wasn't touched on enough that got me to actually start on Wandering Son.

Wow, that's some really heartwarming anime on this page Anyway I'm looking for some horror Not necessarily gory or overall kill-happy, just generally horrifying in SOME way, through implications or otherwise. Labyrinthine plots and awesome creature designs are a plus. I generally liked the Kara no Kyoukai movies (with the exception of certain hella bad characters... you know exactly who) and Texhnolyze (if you wanna count that as horror - sure had great horrifying stuff, though); I really liked the almost offhanded terrifying stuff of Kaiba; Shiki was kinda cheap-looking, but I appreciated how the plot turned incredibly bleak AND bonkers at the same time. There's another notable one where I don't know the name; it took place in a village where people are starting to have murderous delusions, and there's multiple iterations with the same cast, each time someone else going mad. Turns out it's a time loop, and one character is aware of it and tries to break out (also, there's a ghost). Looked really cheap, too, but I appreciated how it kept hiding plot details and called back to them much later. I remember the ending being kinda TOO good overall, but hell, I suppose they've earned it. Can't find the title for the live of me, tho. ...and I loving love Madoka, if you didn't guess that already, and I'm totally counting that as horror too Is there anything close to this out there?

Dunno about the rest you mentioned because i think i never finished it, but this sounds like Higurashi no naku koro ni (localized to When They Cry, i think). It's structured into like 8 different arcs or something. The anime aged pretty badly, cuz it was done by a budget studio i think

Higurashi is definitely a story I would recommend playing the VN it's based off of instead; topical too since chapter 7 comes out on Steam in like 3 days.

Torquemadras posted:Wow, that's some really heartwarming anime on this page From The New World, if you haven’t already seen it? Not precisely horror, but definitely unsettling and bleak for the most part. Excellent show in general also, and a really good ED. Just one thing regarding the first half - there was a guest director who did two episodes (can’t remember which), and I found them pretty clearly worse than the rest. If you think the show’s fallen off a cliff randomly at some point in the first 12 episodes, that’s probably why, so worth sticking with it for a bit rather than dropping it if that puts you off.

And, holy poo poo, I DID have the impression that it fell off a cliff at some point, because everything looked like garbage and I just didn't care about loving molepeople and how the lessons humanity learned from bonobo monkeys made teenagers horny. (I don't even think I'm that far off actual events in the show.) Maybe worth powering through???

The manga is weird bullshit, the show is one of the best anime of the decade. (They're apparently both based on the same novel but I can't really speak to that.) You should care about the mole people, though. Squealer did nothing wrong

(I don't even think I'm that far off actual events in the show.) Definitely worth trying again I think. That particular director did something like episode 4 and episode 12, not sure exactly. But yeah, I got to that first episode they did and it was just awful all of a sudden. Whilst it may not be your thing in the end, I really found the rest of the show just fantastic, so well worth at least giving it another chance. As mentioned above, Perfect Blue is also a good horror film. The same director (Satoshi Kon) did a series called Paranoia Agent which has psychological horror vibes. Haven't seen that one myself yet, but I've heard great things.

I really liked Paranoia Agent - all of Satoshi Kon's works, really. Not sure why I haven't grouped that as "horror" in my head, even his tamest stuff has some DEEPLY unsettling things in it. Paranoia Agent in particular had some incredibly disgusting characters in it, holy poo poo. Paracelsus posted:My friend, have you ever seen SaiKano (aka She, The Ultimate Weapon)? .......nooooooooo?

Bloodborne has swish swoosh dashing and mid-fight powerups with energy aura and everything. Ergo: Bloodborne is even more anime than Dark Souls. Sekiro has motherfuckin ninjas and jutsus and monkeys and evil parents who are suddenly not dead anymore and farting lightning out your nippon steel and huffing dank carp juices to reach a divine hangout. Ergo: Sekiro is the most anime. Checks out
