A topic of public interest, I’d say

Well that's a good episode!

Erika is a ghost or killer? Maybe both.

I need somebody who can love me at my worst
No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth
'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first
And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst

If you stay forever, let me hold your hand
I can fill those places in your heart no else can
Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah
I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim

Weak and predictable. Not a good start.

And it was aired, after all? Ehh.

Anyway, a weak episode. I think I'll just give up. I'm kinda tired of this show anyway and it's air time in my country. I always have the same problem with Pretty Cure as well.

I liked it a lot! Definitely a better start than whatever that thing season 13 started with was

I didn’t realize this came out when it did, coulda swore I saw a later date on LiveChart, but hey better than late never lol. And this was a pretty solid start to the 14th season, the story was kinda predictable but I thought the art was nice and unsettling, and Erika’s face contorting was pretty creepy too, I’d say the spook factor was good for this one, but RIP all those boyfriends, maybe one day they’ll stop someone from dying lol.

The intro to this season is also cool, the giant hand grabbing all those masked folks is a spooky way to start an episode, and the ED is pretty cool this time with the dancing silhouette, I gotta find out who the artist is too because I like the song. And lastly, this is the first season of the series that I’ve caught weekly after I finished the rest of Yamishibai, for Seasons 11-13 I hadn’t seen most of it yet but I fixed that over the last few months, now I’m completely ready for new spooks.

I kind of figured out the plot 2 minutes through. But just like the Spirits, had no way to warn him. GF is a Serial Killer.

I actually liked this one. While predictable, it was nice and simple. Easily told in a few minutes.

I always thought this series gets in trouble when it tries to tell stories that require far more than a couple minutes to be affective. Which, to be honest, is most of the stories it tries to tell, lol.

I think it was a good episode. Predictable but good. Predictable dosen't always mean bad. Not like we expect something big from this short series.

@Serafos

Little off question: If you droped that many precure why do you even started to watch the new ones?
