Synopsis

Adult life has brought its share of disillusions to 28-year-old writer Sumireko Ogawa, who was once considered a child prodigy in literature. Facing hostility from editors, she struggles to publish her work and progress in writing her new novel. As Sumireko starts to resign herself to the uneventful life of a book clerk, she is brutally plunged into the realm of mysteries after she reads poetry from a strange book, as she unexpectedly becomes a child again.

Sumireko is thrilled to have regained her inspiration and youthful enthusiasm. However, her work colleague Ren Adashino, who happens to be an expert in the occult, warns her that this transformation will eventually kill her unless she reads other verses from the book. Reluctantly agreeing to regain her adult form, Sumireko decides to help Ren and his sister, Oto, in their paranormal investigations. Although Ren's goals are still unclear to Sumireko, the young woman is determined to turn her new exciting life experiences into a lasting literary success.

I’m loving the trend of dark mystery/horror we’ve been getting lately. It’s a genre that’s severely underrepresented in this medium and Totokami is a good addition to the list. While it’s not as good as the recent Dark Gathering, it’s still a really fun watch and in my opinion one of the more underrated shows of the year.

Just like Dark Gathering, Totokami is a mystery based anime following the main cast solving “curiosities” that often involve aspects of Japanese folklore or mysticism. It’s very much a monster of the week type of show with a slow burning overarching plot in the background. The cases ...

Mixed Feelings
Mysterious Disappearances - It's not Dark Gathering levels of scary, but it ain't a noteworthy one either.

Some of you would know that I'm an aficionado for horror shows (a la Dark Gathering style), even going so far as to proclaim (in the review) that future follow-up works will have a high ground to try and beat the gory supernatural series. And as much as I've tried to sustain through the newest supernatural anime this season, which would be mangaka Nujima's Kaii to Otome to Kamikakushi a.k.a Mysterious Disappearances, it's definitely a case of Mysterious Disappearances, involving Maidens with a sense of mystery for some popcorn ...

Preliminary (10/12 eps)
Have a hard time to believe that I spent 10 episodes on this one. The opening is great but beside that.
There are basically four big flaws ruining it.

The first is the story.
It's just a kaii thingy, you don't even need a basic story to begin with but this one tried to go with it and is completely failing because the MC just doesn't care about what happens beside her.
So no matter how big of a mystery is laying around with an MC ignoring all of it without even a thought, it falls short.
The worst being that she goes with all the story because she is ...
