| 9:37am | HORROR! | Or is it just spooky violence? | | | | So I saw Mouryou no Hako and Kurozuka last week. I had no idea what was going on in Mouryou no Hako but there was hints of yuri and then random suicide? It was odd. I cannot be bothered to watch more to be honest. It was good but yeah not my cup of tea. It brought to mind thoughts of shows that bored... | | |

| 12:53pm | Dark twins of fall 2008: Mouryou no Hako and Kurozuka | | | | In a break from my usual fare, I decided to take on two shows with 'dark' themes. With most of the shows that I finished from 2008 of the more lively kind, it would be ironic to call these two shows a 'refreshing' experience. | | |

| 7:22am | Kurozuka - 02 | | | | Short Synopsis: A violent killer visits Kuromitsu. Highlights: Production-values are less than in the first episode, but nonetheless gorgeous.

| 6:32am | Mouryou no Hako - 01: Not Awesome, I Can’t Deal With That | | | | Girls talk too much right?
