This is the most peaceful story among ones that I’ve shared so far. (Maybe..)

He was ordered to join the ‘literary club’, which was about to be abolished, by his sister, who lives overseas. Not having a particular reason to turn it down, he joined the club, where he saw a pitiful girl, who was also like the incarnation of curiosity. This is a youth detective ensemble casting play, in which four members of the literary club grow through various incidents.

Suspenseful Horror

In 1998, a main character moved into a country town because of his domestic affair. The class he got into at high school was clearly being terrified by “something”. One day, a girl who has been treated as ‘an invisible existence’ by all the classmates, told an ignorant main character about this. ‘Once every couple years, dead people are slip into this 3-3 class. This year is the one and one person related with 3-3 class (students, teachers and family members) will die every month from April to March next year.’

As even a little incident leads to their death, the famous saying, “’(That little incident) might have led to death (might have developed to something unhappy that can cause death) if it was Another” was born.

Mystery Detective Novel

In 1924, the stage is Europe after the WWⅠ. A Japanese boy, who came to England for studying, met a fairy-like-girl at school. Even though she was a student, she never took her classes at school. Moreover, she was stubborn, selfish and unfriendly. But she could solve the truth of various incidents and strange stories just by hearing him. Two of them try to solve such occult-like-mysteries which cannot occur in the modern world, supporting each other.

 

 

(*´∀｀)ﾉ “How did you like them?! I cannot share other stories with you guys anymore because of the limit of the article’s length, but have you found your favorite mysterious story so far?”

 

 

(  'ω') “Well... I’d say ERASED (Boku dake ga Inai Machi) and Mayoiga. I really don’t like the one where many people die. I’d rather watch the one where they challenge the mysteries without people dying as much as possible!”

（´･∀･`） “Whaaat! The best parts of detective or mystery type stories are murder! But I can understand you too since we see so many grotesque scenes drawn in recent anime. How about Hyouka? That’s a youth solving-mysteries story! No blood in there at all!”

(  'ω') “Oh... this anime, right...? I really want to watch it but...”

 

 

(ﾟ⊿ﾟ) “But?”

 

 

(  'ω') “It sounds like sour-sweet. Like a little love-kind of story, you know? I’d rather want to know whether two people can love each other instead of the mysteries or incidents. I don’t think anybody will die and that’s why we tend to be more curious about their relationship, I guess.”

（；´∀｀） “Well... we can enjoy it that way too but... you think about it too much though. Oh, by the way, Mayoiga, which Boss likes, is now on air! It started in April so you can still catch on it, even if you missed some at the beginning!”

(  'ω') “By the way, I like to watch everything at the same time after all the episodes are completed. How do you enjoy mystery anime? Well, this is all for today!”

 

 

(人´∀｀) “I hope we’ll have more stimulus next week! Byeeee!”

 

Byeeee!
