This one, so far, is still just a six, but it's a better six than average. The stories have fewer jump scares and they overall feel more calm. There are a couple of positive - relatively speaking - episodes, too, rather than just evil spirits or malice. Surprisingly, I quite liked episodes three through six. They're not bad! Let's hope the rest of this season follows suit.
The ending is weird. Art style is still avant garde, but not just utter scribbles. If you liked the series up until now, this is actually better than usual so far. Characters react in believable ways, usually.

It's more of the same - some stories are alright, others miss the mark, and others have jump scares. The ones with jump scares don't really work, the series could do with fewer of those. However, since this is season 13, it seems like resorting to some cheap tricks is expected. Overall, this is a solid six. It's not awful, it's not great, it's just alright. As usual episode 13 ties things together just a little more, and as the norm, each episode is a standalone story outside of that. Some of the art direction this season is a bit odd, a bit too much
