This anime might highlight horror but it's more like mystery. Though there are many questions left unanswered. Such as how the curse started?why didn't the curse permanently stopped?and so on. But even after this you might still like. It was not so special but still it caught my attention I couldn't stop to watch. So I think you should try it.
Its been a while since I've seen a good horror anime...'Another' is definitely worthy...
Sakakibara is a new student at a small town high school. He becomes friends with a girl named Mei who wears an eye patch and doesn't have any friends. Eventually she tells him the story of how every year, a strange calamity occurs in class 3 of 9th yr...an 'extra' person is present in the class and things go horribly wrong for everyone unless certain steps are taken in advance. I don't want to spoil it, but I will say that it may seem confusing to begin with, but things become clearer with time...
I liked virtually everything about this show...the characters, the animation, the storyline...maybe it could have had better music (which was a bit too slow for my taste). Also, I saw the censored version where they black out any blood or (apparently excessive) violence, which sux, coz thats half the reason I was watching it! Bring on the uncensored version I say!

I have a real problem trying to find good anime that has amazing twists and plots. Most of the good ones i have watched already so imagine my delight when a friend recommended Another to me. Firstly, there was a lot of suspense and you kept questioning what was going to happen. You are left in the dark and i like that the show allows you to question things and try to make sense of everything without giving away the story. ( which they eventually do) All the reviews give the basic idea of the story away so i wont bother to say that again. All i can is that this is a good series and its short and quick. I especially liked how dark the show was, and the random shots of dolls faces which was creepy. There are a few wtf moments in the show that could make you angry, especially with Misaki, but hey! everything cant be perfect right? Either way, its a good way to spend a few hours. Enjoy!!
"Another" is a standout example of the horror genre within anime, offering an immersive, haunting narrative that continually escalates in tension and intrigue. Its mystery-driven plot surrounds a cursed class, creating a storyline laden with fear, uncertainty, and suspense.
The careful attention given to the show's animation is nothing short of spectacular. The visually striking, detailed artwork creates an eerie, atmospheric setting that underscores the series' chilling narrative. The animation work crafts an oppressive ambiance, contributing to the increasingly fraught tension that permeates each episode.
Furthermore, "Another" shines in its ability to develop compelling characters. Through gradual exposure of their backgrounds and motivations, viewers form a deep emotional connection, intensifying the impact of each character's struggle against the supernatural circumstances they face.
However, the series isn't without minor flaws. At times, the intricacies of the plot may lead to some confusion, causing certain narrative threads to seem slightly tangled. Nevertheless, this minor issue does little to detract from the engrossing nature of the storyline.
Ultimately, "Another" masterfully blends horror, mystery, and high-quality animation to deliver a captivating viewing experience. The gripping narrative, combined with detailed artwork and emotionally resonant character development, cements the series as a must-watch within the horror anime genre,

A dark horror/phantasy anime with a touch of romance. Lots of twists and turns in the gripping plot. Sweet animation and characters. Very enjoyable. No ecchi. 8/10 with a smile.
