Trying to decide between these two anime:
Poll: Which to watch?Shinsekai yori (18) 60% Death note (12) 40% 30 total votes Your vote: Which to watch? (Vote): Shinsekai yori (Vote): Death note
I've been wanting to try more horror since Another which didn't have much well, horror imo lol. Been also wanting to watch Death note for a while now and thinking more towards that. Both seem to be entertaining though which is my main criteria. Link: http://myanimelist.net/anime/13125/Shinsekai_yori

Watch SSY just because it's way better than Death Note. I agree with Nagi that neither is horror but SSY has some horror elements to it. I don't think an anime can go full western horror anyways. Cheap tricks and jump scares don't work with animated stuff imho. But there are parts with pretty creepy/suspense atmosphere.
Note: SSY has a lot more stuff to think about outside of episodes. That's was a huge part of my enjoyment. You have to know for yourself if that's your thing.

I'm not finishing Mikagura last episode no matter how hard I try... they put best song as OP again so I just end up looping that instead of watching the episode

^ Is it? I only just stumbled onto it and didn't realize that it's way better. I only said its horror because it sounds that way but yes, I realize that death note isn't horror. Thanks for the comments guys. Will probably take the plunge and watch SSY then

Sure, it's just my opinion but I honestly think it is.

I enjoyed SSY more than Death Note though it's not a fair comparison since Death Note was so many more years ago. SSY may start a bit slow, but I really loved it. After X amount of episodes, I felt completely compelled to watch the rest and was insanely hooked. Binge watched the whole show in one sitting.
|
Fuck it, 12 episodes is way too short for Mikagura. Too bad it's not popular.
+ Show Spoiler +That last fight was lolol. Stupid fun. I think this show had a lot of potential but felt really rushed. Well at least it was very fun, every episode was entertaining me a lot.
|
I was kinda hoping for more budget on the final fight in Mikagura but despite being pretty cool the budget just wasn't there it seems...
+ Show Spoiler [pic] +
top2 shows for me this season despite that.

What has this to do with anything?

+ Show Spoiler +Agreed. But I had the feeling it would feel rushed in the end 2 episodes ago. Same with Kekkai Sensen. It often feels like the writers just write and then notice they only have 1-2 episodes left for half the plot...
Anyways, the fight was pretty cool, especially bimi's commentary lol. Stating the obvious as if it was something special, especially when they did it the entire season. xD I'm a little disappointed about not having a kiss scene for Eruna and Seisa though.
Decent overall. Would have been awesome if every episode would have been on par with episode 8 but you can't have everything.^^ The only show this season that surprised me in a positive way.

I meant to say I watched Death Note so many more years ago that I don't remember if I enjoyed it to the same extent. =p

apparently the person reporting it was a bit overzealous and it wasn't actually confirmed also, no rumors or anything on staff
which makes me sad I only know that there are many gundam projects planned.

SSY is one of the best things I have ever experimented as entertainement goes. But it's not horror at all, well, not in the common sense of what you'd call horror. But it is deeply psychological. It's the only anime I have watched that made me think weeks after I ended it and it's the best anti-manichean story ever in my opinion.
Death Note is the best manga ever when you are 15y/o and like plot twist and trap over trap. All in all it's really good but imo no way near SSY in term of overall quality.

I have some of my own theories about the story so I can't wait to see what the end is like :D
