What do I like about the show it's atmospheric. I really like the characters dialogues, It's something that is quite unique that is not usually seen. The mysteries are nice and about Japanese folklore. I think it is unique will still be unique in later seasons. And it is very horny and I respected.
Really nice character design that is unique that I have not seen in a while, and all the visuals has a good layer of Horror Aesthetics over it, with the coloring and the decay. And the main woman has a body I don't see often in anime, big busty and the camera man is not afraid to show it. The eyes design on every character looks so distinct and good.
Even through I don't know much about Japanese litterature and folklore, the anime explain what is needed and it's not so complicated, so you can still get taking into the mystery and detective work. It is nicely ordered.
Dynamic between the 28-year-old woman and a shorty that just keep on bullying her. It's just cute and entertainment it never get dull for me.
The main character having a midlife crisis in the late 20s just like me is so relatable. It's so good when anime does things with adult characters.
This is not an anime for ass men, this is an anime for real men that appreciates the breast. Surprisingly sexy camera angles, they know that we like goodly designed women and I appreciated it.
The anime opening was what sold me on this series. The strong colored choice and the sexy angle and the voice that sounds like it is desperate and fearful at the same time.
Enjoyable time but has the misfortune of the ending feeling like yeah, this is sort of a ending but it doesn't feel like satisfying ending, it's dat specific anime ending where, we have run out of manga so this is the best we can do, still would recommend.

When I started Mysterious Disappearances, I thought, "Wow, a story with characters who are neither good nor bad. Intriguing mysteries to solve and cute girls. What could go wrong?"
The answer was: almost everything.
Don't get me wrong, Mysterious Disappearances is not a bad anime.
Mysterious Disappearances tells the story of two siblings who are part of a magical world trapped in our world, whose only hope to return to their world is to do "favors" for a ticket seller of a magical train. The way to do favors is by solving mysteries and supernatural events based on Asian urban legends.
One thing I really highlight about this anime is its characters. They are all great and well-constructed. And the best part: there are no good people. Here, everyone is human. Humans with qualities, flaws, and vices. Without a doubt, you fall in love with and feel the soul of each of the characters the story focuses on.
What went wrong? The narrative. Everything is too slow, and the author wastes too much time. Literally, there are about three episodes where absolutely nothing progresses. The author forgets that this is a mystery story and it feels like we are watching a "Slice of Life" anime.
In the end, when the author realizes that too much time has been wasted, there is a super forced closure in the last episodes that leaves the story tasteless.
The waste of time is so great, and the closure so abrupt, that one cannot help but feel that they have wasted their time watching this story.
It's unfortunate. Episode 1 excites anyone, but by episode 4, you are already thinking about what the next anime to watch will be.
THE GOOD. Extraordinary characters with incredible personalities. Personally, I loved Oto Adashino.
THE BAD. A mediocre narrative lowered the quality of this work.
THERE WILL BE no more Otto for anyone in anime version :(
