Anime Corner

I don't really watch horror anime, but I love horror manga. Probably because japanese-produced anime tends to blur/black-out any sort of major gore, which takes me out of the moment as far as viewing. It's less of an issue in the manga for me due to it being less censored in general or at least easier to ignore for my brain for some reason. Plus, I enjoy the black and white of most manga vs the full color of most anime, it somehow makes the art more interesting to me.

I've never been a horror genre person in any capacity. That said, I watched Dark Gathering anime over the last couple of weeks and enjoyed it quite a bit. I think it was because of the style of the spirits, the world building through the teaching how to fight the spirits and the droll, monotone "Let's go." battle cry.

I also watched the first episode of Dandadan last night which was bonkers from a visual stand point while mashing up occult, ufo and teens in high school genres. Looks like it will be interesting to watch.

Dandadan is a weird one, because it’s new this season and airing simultaneously on Crunchyroll and Hulu.
 
So two episodes into this season, and Dan da dan is the standout series so far. Hidive has only three new series this season and so far they’ve been pretty entertaining. Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon V, Loner Life in Another World (ugh, isekai), and How I Attended an All-Guys Mixer.

It's on Netflix too. First time being into the "It" anime at the beginning. Kind of fun but also frustrating trying to learn more about the setting without running into spoilers from the many folks "reactalyzing".
 
Dang, can’t believe I typed Hulu. I don’t even have Hulu anymore.

I just avoid all of the online anime communities. So i never have that problem.
