Ghost Hound is one of the greatest anime of the 2000s and it's often overlooked.
>>
>>285214908
it was meandering and mid at best
no idea what the point of it even was
>>
>>285215619
Yeah it was firmly ok. It had some nice parts to it but overall forgettable.
Excellent opening though.

I really like it despite the underwhelming ending, and as >>285215680 said, the OP was great.

Turn your monitor on

its the only horror anime with an actually scary scene

It's kino but ONLY for a certain mood. Watching it in the wrong one will ruin everything.
>>
>>285214908
I believe you. I'll watch it.
>>
>>285218531
What mood?

I liked the direction and mood a lot, and it had some very good moments, but overall it lacked focus. If it had managed to streamline all the different plot threads into something more consistent it could've been a classic.

I'm a sucker for these small town mystery shows, so much so that I even liked Ookamikakushi.

Morning mist.

Its very gay, it ends with the main boy crossdressing (Which is a good thing)
>>
>>285219604
He looked really good too.

Ghost hound is kino, Konaka does it again, fans should also watch marebito.
But not only does it have Konaka and his esotheric cospiracy shizoing, it also has Ryotaru Nakamura, giving the whole thing great atmosphere!
Anyone in this thread who hasnt yet watched ghost hound really should. The way it connects spirituality with psychology/neurology is very unique and memorable. Trauma being linked to the appearance of ghosts, the small town atmosphere, the psychologist who hyptnotizes a girl who in trance becomes a medium for a god possessing her, the genuinly unnerving ghosts encounters, its really great. Only a few small flaws here and there and the end is a bit of a let down, but its still very much worth watching. And the recaps at the start of each episode where speech is distorted as if through a bad radio connection, really unnerving sometimes, great atmosphere.
There once was a glorious time where Abe, Konaka and Nakamura worked together and i have very fond memories of watching these shows. Can only recommend
>>
alright I watched the first episode, the "music" and the sound effects are top notch. never heard something quite like those tapping drums. >>285219902
these wide shots are beautiful too.
>>
It's good but it shits the bed a bit in the second half.
Like there's a ton of buildup for this mystery in the first few episodes and then it's basically resolved at the halfway point and then it's just weird cults and Evil Local Corp from that point in.

The style and tone is impeccable, though.

>>285214908
I don't remember anything except the main boy having narcolepsy or something, but I recall loving most of it but found the ending underwhelming

Yes, though its funny such an atmospheric show gut such a straightforward end.
But cute boys save the day, I guess.

I'm 100% sure I watched it decades ago... yet I can't even remember what the show is all about.

not even after seeing images in this thread.

I remember the blond kid's dad coming home from his secret underground sci-fi lab job and immediately getting drunk while listening to discordant jazz. I've become literally him.
>>
>>285221825
you work in a secret lab?

I remember that. Came out of nowhere.

It's kind of terrible but in a comfy way. I like it but I know better than to call it good.

I really love these types of unnerving atmospheric shows, Mononoke is another good one.
