Honestly, I don't really even need to get that much into how this Itou Junji anime adaption is just plain out disappointing and dull. But here are some things I think why its like this.
The anime itself is a pretty average show, but for a Itou Junji anime adaption its not great, but definitively better than the last Junji anime adaption. But honestly if you haven't read the manga and are just now seeing the stories it adapted and the anime is your first time seeing them, it seems fine at best, maybe even alright for some. But when you decide to read the manga
...
of Junji's stories and start to compare it to the anime you start to notice the problem of how plain, kinda dull and sometimes even a little empty the anime did with animating it.
Like let's start off with the backgrounds, in the manga the background's are very well crafted even with an average day-to-day hotel but even with it was still able to keep the feel of the situation that is going on, with the anime's the backgrounds are just there and pretty dull especially the color palette with some of the backgrounds and everything else as well. Like the color palette just sometimes feels so boring, it's fine for background noise too I guess. (I'm gonna edit this later to add more stuff cause right now I'm not in the mood to do that)
Like if this anime wasn't a Itou Junji anime adaption and was I guess for example a original anime or whatever, it would be average and fine at best, but it's not a original anime or something like that its a Itou Junji anime adaption and for it to be this average it feels a little bit annoying, like it's really not worth watching if you really like Itou Junji's stories.
Which is why I'm debunking it from a 5/10 to a 4/10.
The Intro does slap do and maybe even the outro but it's mostly the intro that was worth watching.
