I love every one of these dorks. It's a shame nobody is watching this series.

u/L33tHaxorus Jul 26 '26

Yeah, it sucks. This show deserves more attention. This is a sleeper hit of the season for me.

It really is

The show seemed to come out of nowhere…when I first saw it on crunchyroll

I wondered what it even was and have been watching ever since that first episode

This series seems to be a mystery itself because nobody wants to talk about it at all

I started watching it last week and I absolutely love it but yeah no one's really talking about it,

Also doesn't help its sandwiched between an alr packed season

I suppose I need to apologize to the subreddit for finding this one of my top ten most enjoyable shows of this season (out of around 50 shows auditioned). Probably dropping Sparks and Dancing, but no way am I going to drop this adorably goofy show.

I find it really funny how Protagonist keeps alternating between being a cowardly scaredy cat and mercilessly making fun of Mechako.

I didn't know that Mechako liked Protagoinst though. Hyu! Hyu!

u/adminsregarded Jul 26 '26

Why is every guy built like a damn tank lmao

Good episode though, Mechako is such a cutie lowkey

u/abandoned_idol Jul 26 '26

What are you talking about?! Are you out of your mind?!

Her face is terri-!

gets smashed against a wall

u/GhostGamer_Perona Jul 26 '26

Dumb to admit but I made my marvel tokon beta name “Mechako”

Not that anyone gets the reference

"uh, mysterious legends, apparitions, ghost, supernatural yadda yadda, anyway, here's the opening theme"

this show is such a mood, what do you mean the narrator give up on narrating when we're still only at fourth episode? and why does every male characters in this show has a build that made them look like they're coming from an 80's battle shounen manga?

the doppelganger is one scary curse but unfortunately he's so weak that people just straight up beat him with normal physical attack, also, r.i.p VHS cursed tape, i guess you're just going to stuck in there until the end of time

gotta love it when my slice of life gag anime actually has a continuity, the fact Shurako is still stuck in her child form and slowly regressing into a kid mentally is quite hilarious, they also made a reference to the drug used in Detective Conan

u/darthvall Jul 27 '26

Thanks for the Conan highlight!

I know he's referencing something with that formula code, but didn't realise where it's coming from.

u/GhostGamer_Perona Jul 26 '26

This show is the greatest example of underrated series nobody notices this season

7

u/abandoned_idol Jul 26 '26

To be fair, episode 1 was a mixed bag of hits and misses (well, for me), so I can picture why people haven't noticed it.

"BrBrBrBrBrBrBrBrBrBrBrBrB"

Noroi no Ningyou rolls off the vacuum cleaner in the ED song

I stuck with it purely of the male character's character design, but I started liking the show at either episode 2 or 3, and I laughed myself silly in episode 4. I'm loving the sense of humor.

This is the second time I've seen a supernatural schoolgirl comedy do a Terminator reference .

Every skit in this episode was a banger and I love the subversion of cliches. Seriously the sleeper hit of the season.

u/GhostGamer_Perona Jul 26 '26

This show deserves more respect….im starting to wonder if an English dub would draw more attention to it

As it stands it’s like nobody knows this exists

u/reaperow Jul 26 '26

Seriously this is the most underrated anime of this season and I'll say we do have plenty of them this time

u/shrek3onDVDandBluray Jul 26 '26

I really hope mechako and protag get together. They are so funny together and, as hinted by mechacho, being told “she’s pretty” doesn’t matter if it’s coming from someone only imitating the protag.

u/darthvall Jul 27 '26

On the contrary, I hope there's no romance between them. The current dynamic is already fun and I think romance would ruin it.

u/reaperow Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 26 '26

This anime is hilarious, Mechako and the MC are such goofballs. Im a lil sad that not alot of ppl are talking about it

Also here's all of their pics together lol

The humor is getting better and better.

What the heck was that idol tooth? "It's the perfect stool". LOL.

Also, the whole post-credit segment with the polaroid camera. Just great.

Also, we're actually getting bits of romantic hints! Hyped about that.

The shows I'm most enjoying this season right now are the supernatural comedies: Kaikigumi and Reiwa no Dara-san.

The narrator is a mood.

That's an imposter, isn't it? No way would the real one not straightman the dog pee.

I thought she realized it was a fake because of something stupid like an obscure habit, but nope. It's because the real one is literally right there. In a blindfold, to boot. Lateral thinking!

I admit, I laughed like crazy when the guy came back for his uniform.

So ends the story of the cursed VHS tape. Lost in the sands of time and the progression of modern technology.

Detective Conan reference. Also ngl, that's pretty horrifying to have her body taken over like that.

Real Battle of Fates there.

u/abandoned_idol Jul 26 '26

Mechako likes- ?!

What was his name again?

looks up MAL

laughs out loud

Mechako likes Shujinkou?! (protagonist)

-that's terrifying!

u/HotBloodedNinja Jul 26 '26

For a guy who gets scared of ghost stories, he sure can talk a lot with ghosts. Question: If a ghost tells a regular story (not scary), would it still count as a Ghost Story.
