| In shoujo, there is only one umbrella in the whole Japan and this show has enough umbrellas to kill people. Fucking awesome. That was retarded as hell. At least it offered great lulz. 4/10 |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |
| Another good episode,we get some answers and more questions,i really enjoy when Mei was telling the story,i always love that kind of shit. Also poor Yukari thats a painful way to die....even that i like it,and ya she say Mei and thats why she freak out...so people will start to die without doubt and i already want to hear the rest of the story! Cant wait for next episode! Also....never going to run downstairs with a Umbrella again. |

As it turns out, living was a punishment...  |
| OMG this is getting so good... can't wait to watch more *.* I'm guessing that those who can see Misaki eventually die because the girl who died seemed like she could see Misaki and that she was afraid of something, that must be because of the rest of the story concerning it, well so far it seems that way, anyway, the plot is getting really good ^^ |
 |
| I hope this is going to be one of the shows where everybody dies. |
 |
| So if those in class 3 die around Misaki... that's why Kouchi's mother died after giving birth? Y'know Final Destination killed others years after, so maybe it's the same? Still confused about how they thought they have seen him before he moved. ._.? |
  |
| I have the impression Misaki "exists" because people from school not accepted that she died and they still think that she lives. And these death(s) are maybe it's some revenge? Maybe when they will see her will die? |
| I w Kurimu-chan said: BRB, going to the toilet to throw up. GUYS, I WAS EATING JELLO AS I WATCHED THIS EPISODE. BAD DECISION. I was eating jello before I watched this thank god. That was as Fucked up as the school days ending. But I was not expecting that. Poor girl, I feel so sorry for her. |
 |
| What a tripp ending.. Literally.. |

D: That's what I thought at that moment :) Same here, even though I knew what was going to happen since I read the manga, but that was f***ing creepy, and also I'm watching this at 01:06 a.m...Holy sh*t!!! O_O I can't wait to see the next episodes, and I recomment to everyone who doesn't read the manga, don't read it because it will kill the suspence and the mystery(that do to me anyway) |
Sir_Lexa said: And call me crazy, but I have actually started to like the OP. xD You're not alone xD Anyway, I loved the ending. That was really unexpected. I'm probably gonna suffer waiting for next weeks episode. |
| So, he has time to read Lovecraft during exams week? |
 |
| OMG THAT ENDING! loved this episode |

| As someone who read the manga, it isn't like Final Destination at all. Lol How many people have been conditioned as to think that when unexpected deaths happen, it's that kind of ordered? No, don't let the order of appearances in the ED fool you. Honestly =.= |
 "Belief is the death of intelligence." ~Robert Anton Wilson~ |
| See the thing i dont understand is why didnt the class just tell him from the beginning not to talk to her or they will die. I dont get it |
| HOLY SHIT. O,o GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! |
  |
| ok class now what did me learn from that ending always hold on to the rail when walking down the stairs never run down the stairs with sharp objects and im still watching this anime the dolls forever creep me out |
 |

Honestly =.= Jeez, stop spoiling the fun of those who have not read the manga! What's wrong with people creating their own theories on the show? That is part of the fun of mystery stories after all! And if you really need to talk about it, at least use the spoiler tag! Anyway, I don't find this show boring. So far is pretty much what I was expecting. |
| The pace of this show is damn slow but it's awesome nonetheless! Unfortunately I knew she was going to die and how she was going to die thanks to looking up info on the novel on wikipedia the other day. I also know who dies next but not how as a stopped reading that friggin' wikipedia entry once it clicked that I was ruining an awesome series for myself in doing so! |

swordaxe said: the dolls forever creep me out This. I don't have problems with umbrellas killing people, but those dolls.. Still liking this, and I guess shit just got real. |
| The joke's on you wolf, the pigs are cannibals..~ |
| I was not expecting that ending. And there are people who say that the series is winding... Ep1 - Lifted the mystery. Ep2 - Played with the mystery. Ep3 - Confirmed the mystery, and... Lifted another the mystery: "staying around Misaki is trully dangerous"? |
 |
| Holy shit. It was a great decision to actually watch this at night, instead of leaving for tomorrow. Rather slow paced episode, creepy atmosphere all around was great. But that ending, i couldn't believe it at first. (And it wasn't even completely censored! o/) Definitely loving this show as of now. My theory goes like this, they all see Misaki (like proved by the glassess guy and his friend when Misaki was on the roof and Kouchi ran to see her) but refuse to believe in her thinking that she will eventually dissapear if they ignore her long enough. I guess that'd be current students trying to repair their ancestors mistake of believing Misaki was alive after her death. I'm not sure why they wouldn't want to tell Kouichi the story though, could as well just tell him everything and order to ignore Misaki... but i guess that'd be too simple and ruin the story. It'd be lame if all this turned out to be a device to let plot go on without any explaination though. There's also Misaki, why would she lie about Misaki being her cousin? Maybe she really was her cousin and Misaki Mei is alive and people are aftaid of her after 26-years ago story so they ignore her? Man, i really got into this, next ep plox. |

| Turn off every light in your home, and watch it when you are alone.Amazing effect xD Anyway, this episode was pure win.I LOVED atmosphere.I LOVED Misaki. But why megane-girl was so surprised when she saw Kouichi at the end? he is suppose to be the one that sees her, right? and the scene when these 2 guys were warning him on the roof.Im so curious what is going on. 5/5 9/10 |
 |
| Amazing how she managed to roll down the stairs instead of falling on her butt. She is really talented in falling downstairs. Kinda looked unrealistic, but I may be wrong. Usually when people miss a stair they fall on their ass. They only roll down when they trip, and her foot didn't trip. She missed a stair and rolled down. Still a great episode. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| Oh SHIT! Did not see that coming...and I believe that theory with a person seeing Mei before death might be correct, with Sakibara, it might be that he has already been predicted to die, but it just takes much longer to die for him... |
| -forever sad was hoping my prediction was wrong were it wouldn't be base around the deaths of class 3 *still hope i am* like others had said that they think people die right before they see mei,but i don't care how *unrealistic* it was i'm still weak to watching those kind of things but what makes it worst is that it's PA work's art so it looks really detail and brutal...also didn't help that i was watching this in the dark. and my only thought when i saw the teacher react to her death was * Sh** We lost another one already!* |

| Stupid girl, if you didn't run like such an idiot you wouldn't fall and get impaled through the throat by your damn umbrella. Protagonist is constantly asking what the story is and of course every time he gets interrupted in the middle of learning about it. This build up is getting more annoying than exciting really. Maybe its just because I'm not feeling scared at all. |
| ah...my precious Megana personnel . Seem like its too coincidence for her to die like that,having the tip of the umbrella stabbing directly into her throat.I guess she is fated to die due to the attractor field . |

| would be so cash if the guy ending up falling for Mei Am I the only one that gets a weird boner with the dolls? |
 |
| I think I can cross off any chance of a happy ending now. |
 |
AsianDude said: would be so cash if the guy ending up falling for Mei Lol I agree, it'd be so fucked I'd love it. Oh god. The ending with the umbrella was beautiful. Lmao. Didn't think this was that type of show, but oh boy. Colour me entertained. She was a dumb annoying bitch anyway, no loss here. ooooh I like the "one sees Misaki before death" theory. Seems to be legit. |
mycat8u said: I was waiting to see how this would be animated since i've read the manga. Not too bad... Me too! I don't get chills down my spine when reading manga for series like Another but when I saw it animated... holy crap... did they show A LOT. |
| Subarashii death scene, repeated over and over. I've been wondering, why is Kouichi talking to himself at the doll store and corridor :/ |
| . |
| God damn cellphones. You interupt live performances such as orchestras, and now you interupt Misaki's story. God dammit. Dang you umbrellas. |
 |
| HO. LY. SHIT. Best show of 2012 right here. Nope, can't argue with me. Nothing will touch this. THIS is how you make a show. Take notes, directors. This is the only show that I literally cannot wait for the new episodes to come out of. Watching it in the brand new 1080p Crunchyroll offers on a 42" HDTV was LEGIT. Nice reading choice there, Sakakibara. H.P. Lovecraft... couldn't find a more fitting author.

| One I don't like how everybody is avoiding the past. Something must really bad must have happened to Misaki. So Misaki Fujioka is Mei's cousin but Mei doesn't exist? I dont understand. And I will say the ending was a lil too brutal yet awesome. There will be prolly more death as the story gets revealed. |
| Shit got real. It's getting interesting. |
