Another is labeled as a horror anime, but it really is much more of a mystery thriller. It has several scenes of gore and I guess that's the reason behind the 'horror' label. Anyway, the mystery is handled just right in that it keeps you wondering. You'll want to watch the next episode immediately to find out what is going on in this classroom?

The main character is kept in the dark about the strange events that occurred in his classroom a long time ago and how it affects what's happening now. A mysterious girl with an eye patch is ignored by all the students, yet he is not told why. As the days pass and as people die he begins to unravel the mystery.

Although it doesn't have the most well developed characters, the mystery plot is more than enough to keep you engaged.

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.

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 was really amaze how they keep the atmosphere so surreal and very spooky.The story is just simply brilliant,it really kept me guessing till the very end. It started with Mei," is she a ghost?"Did she died 15 years ago?? Class 3 counter measures."Counter measures for what?"Koichi "is Dead?" or maybe not "so who is? "What Calamity? stop it? HOW?...etc...Just,list of my many questions and a lot more to list here and keeps coming as the story progressed.YOU will have no idea which direction the story will take you from episodes to episodes.This is one of those times I really wish I can understand Nippon...Iam just gonna have to read the novel.When it's available.This is one good Horror mystery Anime and with a brilliant story to back it.A must see!!!!

"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,

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.

I usually love Japanese anime for their amazing story telling and visuals and Another is one more master piece. Horror anime are tough to make but if they can make u keep on guessing whats gonna happen next and when your are shown something totally unexpected your hooked. A bit slow at the start but picks up pace from the 3rd episode and waiting for each episode is a pain. Finished 9 episodes now and with only 3 episodes left i don't know in which direction the story is going to go. For all horror or ghost story anime fans its a must watch. The basic premise is that a 9th grade class has a curse upon them in which students every year die. The main characters are trying to find out how the curse started and stop it before more of their friends die. I don't want to reveal much, watch it for yourself and enjoy!!!!!!!!

Another is an extremely mysterious story about a boy named Sakakibara who just transferred to school in his new city. He is assigned to the "cursed" as everybody calls it class C and meets the mysterious girl Misaki. From there the tragedy begins...

Well, for starters, it was totally worth it, you don't get to see real horror everyday in anime. And it wasn't only the deaths, the gore part. The author of this puts a real trial on the protagonists, destroying them emotionally and putting into real despair, so it is not only about solving the mystery but also about fighting themselves and for themselves. And that's what makes "Another" so special among others. Supernatural and Psychological horror in one mix of beautiful animation art.

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!!

A story is presented, small flashes of not-so-happy images are presented in the middle of the plot, giving atmosphere to the plot. A good performance, some loose ends, but it brings some surprise in the end, without putting heavy scenes and close to the real.

If you like suspense with a touch of horror and fantasy, a great choice.

I have watched a good variety of anime, but I am new to the horror genre. Not just in anime but in movies too. Another is the first anime in the horror genre that I have come across, and it was not my favorite. I did like the creepy tone at first and the moderate suspense on how the events would unfold and who would be the next target of the curse, but it didn't ensnare me like some other anime did. And the ending kindof crashed it for me. In my opinion, the ending of Another was as sudden and unneeded as the ending to Shiki. Way too much unnecisary bloodshed as people's minds fly out the window. And that ending was a little too bloody for TV 14 in my point of view. It was also nice to hear Greg's voice in the English Dub as Kouchii who also plays Sunohara in Clannad and Koda in My Hero Academia. I was used to his voice being played in some more lighthearted series. In all, Another has an amazing beginning and a mildly eerie opening theme. If you are knew to darker atmospheres in anime, then trying this series wouldn't hurt.

I've got no clue why this is rated so low. I enjoyed every single moment of the anime. It was intense, clever, slick, suspenseful and most importantly unpredictable. I absolutely loved it.

It's not too often an Anime keeps me guessing where the story is going, but Another certainly did that. From very early on in the story till the very climax of it all (which should be noted is extremely satisfying) Another never steps in the tracks of the expected, which is quite something for a horror story.

Though progressing somewhat slow in the beginning after the third episode the series boosts away and rarely stops to let you take a breath. As a mixture of true mystery/horror and Final Destination style deaths it's clear that no one is safe. Except for the "Another" off course.

Ki o tsukete!

It's not horror by any means, but this was a pretty goddamn tense show. I like how they build up the mystery, but they actually give you answers to the mysteries they are building up like halfway through the show. Then, they introduce a new mystery so that you are intrigued the whole time and not bored of the same thing, and the last episode is the big reveal of the second mystery.

The second mystery (the whodunnit type thing, as opposed to the "what the heck is even going on" mystery) was set up really well imo. I kept going back and forth between who I thought it was, and then I landed on someone that I knew for sure that it was and it turned out it was false. Looking back, they gave more than enough info for someone with a keen eye to spot who it was, but I still couldn't figure it out, and I think that makes for the best type of mystery.

The soundtrack is really good, not a masterpiece but it fits the show really well and makes it feel very eerie and tense.

The visuals were also really good, not on the level of say, kyoani, but they were more than enough to make this show enjoyable.

This is my first (2nd if you count erased in the same category as this) time watching an anime like this, and I was thoroughly impressed. I didn't think I liked this type of thriller/mystery thing, but I actually do. I'm not sure why people are saying the story sucks or giving this a bad review, but I'm also don't watch a lot of mystery anime so they could know something I don't. All I know is that I really enjoyed watching this, and I expect you will too if you are into this sort of thing.

'Another' tells the story of the student Sakakibara, who transfers into class 9-3 at a middle school in remote Yomiyama. He quickly realises that strange events are centred around his class, leading to series of mysterious deaths... The anime was a genuine surprise to me. I took me a while to get into it; it isn't until the end of the third episode that things start to properly unravel. However, from that point onwards, the series proceeds to get darker and darker, ending in a finale that is rather furious.

Personally, I don't think there isn't much about 'Another' that is not to like. The visuals are surprisingly great for a show that's more than a decade old. The soundtrack is fitting, although I found the opening and ending themes utterly forgettable. The story easily compelled me since the third episode; I watched the rest of the series in one sitting.

Parents are advised that 'Another' contains a serious amount of violence. But I highly doubt that many children would be interest in the show anyway; murder mysteries typically appear as rather boring at that age. There is no nudity or fanservice beyond the obligatory beach episode.

In total, I can easily recommend 'Another' to anyone who likes paranormal thrillers or mysteries, as long as you don't mind seeing quite a bit of blood. I was vaguely reminded of 'Final Destination' with regard to the gore (although the story of 'Another' is vastly superior); take that as you will.

The story is really strong and the suspense is what nobody can ever guess . first three episode just give for look around and find what you can. But that is not my taste I hate this type of show where too much death involve with the some important character. And after all that they are fine.

And if hate horror and can't handle death of the some of the main or many character then you should skip it I just can't handle what happen here. May be there is people enjoy but I can't.

In simple world if you like movies like final destiny then you can like it but you are other side like me not for you.

Usually I don't watch horror related stuff regardless of it's anime or not, but this anime really break my imagination towrds the general. This anime is amazing, regarding both the plot and animation, but some times I don't like how it purposely remove parts of conversation in reasonable way, however, I can't really accept that the character have more information than the viewer.

Great and mysteries series, deffinantly worth watching.

It was a pretty good mystery anime, that's all I can say about it. Even though it wasn't that creepy, it was disturbing in its own ways but at the same time, it was all good!

Definitely recommend horror fans to watch this anime!

Spring 1998. 15-year-old Sakakibara Kouichi feels unwell after transferring to third grade class 3 at Northern Yamiyama Middle School. The reason for this is the anxious atmosphere that prevails in this class. Attracted by the beautiful but mysterious Misaki Mei, he tries to get closer to her and in doing so only gets more deeply entangled in the mystery. Meanwhile, the next misfortune awaited her. What on earth is happening there?

"Another" is an anime that tells a scary story.

The anime actually got me very carried away and I kept thinking about who the additional student could be.

I think the animation is very good, even if sometimes it might be a bit too detailed for some... Also the revelation of the additional student I thought was a stroke of genius at the end.

However, I don't like the character design of the main character at all.

It just looks a bit boring to me.

It's creepy and the plot is awesome with the mysterious female protagonist.

I love this one worth watching. And also there are a lot of twists, those are great as hell.

Please watch it 🙏(Suggest:Watch at night with good headphones) The background scores are so great💥 It (literally)gives me goosebumps.

Please watch it 'cuz it is so underrated😢
