| Cool. Can't wait to see it. |
| 2011: The best year for anime since 2007. |
     |
| So hope this works out well. Could be really awesome. |
| best news in a long time! |
| gawd.. I want to watch this one! hope it goes at fall or what xDD |

| <Good> I feel the potential from this, and with ufotable making the adaptation it's even more like it. I'm in. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| Looking forward to it ^^ |
 |
| haven't heard of the manga 'til now, but since it's ufotable, I think I'm gonna like it ^_^ |

| ufotable plan to make a lot this year. And it's really good ) |
 |
| I approve. Go with it. |
 |
| I still would prefer Uzumaki to be animated, but I'm not complaining much since the anime world needs more whore... I mean horror!!! |
| junji ito + studio ufotable = a must watch kinda ironic because i haven't read gyo XD |
"everyone knows that the last toes are always the coldest to go." Telavators-the mars volta |
| what a weird poster of a fish lol |
| Wow, I just had a look at the manga yesterday thinking "This looks pretty cool. Kind of weird it hasn't been adapted into an anime yet though.". And look at that, it got an adaption the day afterwards! Definitely going to watch this. I'm looking forward to it. |

Pepelina said: It's an OVA, and OVAs allow for the most creative freedom in terms of mature content, so they probably chose an OVA format for the sole purpose of not having to censor it.I have to admit that I'm pretty excited about this, even though Gyo is my least favourite manga by Junji Ito. The story was either strangely hilarious or too silly to be scary, but it was a decent read in the end. Still, I really hope ufotable won't censor the living hell out of it. So yes, looking forward to see it no matter what. I might as well check this out myself when it comes out. |
Current FAL Ranking + Previous best::  [ |
| OMFG, great news. Now we need only anime adaption of Uzumaki. That would be even 100 times more epic. |
| This made my day. |
| Cover of the manga made me shit in my pants !xD |
 |
| Would rather have Uzumaki. But oh well, it's good to see of Ito's stuff animated. |
| lol, this looks like the type of B-movie they would put on mystery science theater 3000 |
| whoa this could be interesting.... il be looking foward to this |
     "If only if only, the woodpecker cried, the bark on the tree was as soft as the sky" || ♪My mind, heart is broken♫ |
| Yeah, I would have preferred Uzumaki, too...but I don't really mind that Gyo is getting animated. I thought it was a pretty entertaining horror manga :) (really gross, though, lol) |
| Meh I hope they fix the ending, Ito gets really lazy with his endings it's like he just gets stick of the manga and just tries to end it quickly as possible. |
| It doesn't think, it doesn't feel, it doesn't laugh or cry..... All it does from dusk till dawn is make the soldiers die. |
| Well Uzumaki is much more disturbing though.... So maybe they restrained themselves a little bit....just a little bit though.... |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| ufotable and in OVA form, im on this |
| At least its a departure from your regular horror stories. Weird choice though... |
 |
| Another horror from ufotable? Can't wait for it :D |
| Aww, I wanted to see Snail-chan and Jack-in-the-box animated. |
 |
| Invasion of the robot dead fish? After that it starts sounding like a pretty legitimate horror title, but I can't help but wonder why that was the route chosen to get there... |
| Looking forward for this :) ! .. |
 |
| Holy Shit! This is going to be epic hopefully it will have the same quality as kara no kyoukai. |
| Gyo was terrible. |
| Just read the synopsis here on MAL and it sounds like an anime/manga the Sci-Fi channel decided to make. Seriously, undead fish? I don't want to judge it until I see it, but that sounds incredibly stupid. Since everyone else is hyped about it, I'll give it a try anyways. I get swept away by the current too easily.. Undead fish. *Shakes head and laughs* |

| Uzumaki would have been a much better choice but, even though I didn't like Gyo that much, I'm still extremely hyped for this. OH GOD YES UFOTABLE. |

Undead fish. *Shakes head and laughs* You will be hallucinating monstrous, rotted fish with deadly, mechanic legs in every corner you look after you've watched Gyo. Seriously, Ito Junji is a beast with horror. But there's always someone who just find his works plain ridiculous. |
Naratchi said: I guess I'll have to wait and see; I was skeptical about Madoka Magica this season and it's turned into my favorite. And I've never really seen an amazing horror anime, so hopefully this will be good. If it's an OVA I'm wondering how long it's going to be. It'll suck if they do this like Mirai Nikki.You will be hallucinating monstrous, rotted fish with deadly, mechanic legs in every corner you look after you've watched Gyo.

| I sense this for halloween. Anyway's, cant wait to watch it. Loved the manga. |
| Awesome. |
| Minori Scramble, Fate/Zero, and now Gyo. ufotable's gunning for glory this year, and I'm bracing for epic win. |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| Seems interesting, put it on my PTW List. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
