i think the first ep scene was satoishi, and not the main character. The girls however are creepy as hell. This is definitly added to my watch list. Gonna love to find out how all the stuff plays out in the end. Is it me or are the girls scared of the bat?

It seems that there's three girls with creepy eyes running around, at the moment, third one being that little blond girl. The girl with the blue hair hasn't been "turned", yet.
Oh, and one musn't forget that there could also be some crazed villagers running around as well.

Maybe he was in shock or maybe he was just stupid, but why in the hell would anyone eat food from a box, given to him by two creepy looking girls, with unearthly eyes!? And just a minute ago they were threathening him! "Come to school tomorrow, or else...*Creepy eyes stare* ... Ah, and do enjoy that food we gave you! Bye"

Ep 4 is out

What I guess is right,the main character is the one in the first ep scene.And after he kill two girls at his house,he kills himself later at the phone booth due to some drugs.I think just like the photographer.But WTF main character died at 4/26? But whatever this is a good ep and the series became more interesting as it goes on

Ep 4 looks like the end of the first chapter, and Rena's storyline. Though I don't know which is creepier, Keiichi snapped and Rena's fingers stuck in the door, with her "earnestly" asking for forgiveness, or Rena's maniacal laughter when she trapped Keiichi with the machete in the woods.

Either way, looks like this chapter has ended. Rumour about the next chapter, and subsequently this anime

They will do a "reset" so that each girls got their own time in the spotlight. Wataganashi seems like Mion's turn or something

Wow, so far this is one of the more disturbing animes I've seen. However, I'm not sure that those girls really are psycho. Everything seems to have been from Keiichi's view so far, even when it's shown in third person. Some of the events just don't add up correctly. Here's my thoughts on what's happened in the first 4 episodes:

When Rena tries to get him to eat a needle, Keiichi throws the ohagi at the wall. Later, when he looks for the needle, he finds no mess at all. His mother never even mentioned him making a mess.
Keiichi received a shot as part of a cold remedy. Colds cannot be cured with shots.
The girls managed to overpower him to give him an injection, and yet somehow he broke out soon after and killed both at once.
Rena seemed hardly affected by his slamming her hand in the door repeatedly.

I think that most of it is in his head. Rena didn't actually try to kill him with ohagi, he didn't even get injected by the girls in episode 4. Oishi obviously knows way too much, he's got to be involved in the paranoid breakdown that Keiichi experienced somehow. He seems to be intentionally feeding him speculation to try to make him paranoid.

Wow, this anime ROCKS. I knew it when I saw the batting in the 1st epsiode and the anime OP, this series would be interesting. But not until the 2nd episode, it really hooked me up Smile

When Rena suddenly changed, it really send a chill down my spine (that eyes , they are creepy as hell), and it being executed nicely as well like what mistabean said.
Plus, even before she scream "That's lie", the line has sent out the creepy feeling (the voice actress is awesomely good in doing that Very Happy

), and in addition, I watched the episodes alone in midnight, it really freaking me out Shocked

After watching the 2nd episode, I just can't get enough of it, so I dl the 3rd and 4th episodes and watched it straight away. Man, just hope I don't have a nightmare tonight Very Happy

(Get chased by 2 cute loli carrying butcher knife which suddenly changed to demoness Wink

)

Too bad the guy (Keiichi) died, and I thought he is the main character too. Rena and Mion also died damn fast too, just when I started to like them Laughing

So, I think next episode will have new main character, and the 2 little kid will start to "change" and drive him to his limit too, or maybe there will be new characters introduction.

Ep 5 is out, by wind.

It rewind everything to before watanagashi festival, so it was before the girls went nuts, and as you have guessed there are lots of comic relief in this episode too, sort of like a calm before the storm Smile

Plus who would have thought Mion has a twin cute little sister name Shion, and seems like both of them like the main character too. (Like him enough to kill him later Shocked

)
I think all the girl has been injected by the drugs, so they think they "see" the deity "Oyahiro-sama", and I bet the "director" is the "Oyashiro-sama" who told them to kill people. The problem is, how come when the drugs is injected on the male, they tend to kill themselves, but on women they just went nuts, how unfair Very Happy

Hmm...Ep5...

It seems that everything rewinds to the begining!I wonder why?They should at least have some sort of explanations?

Just watched till ep3 so far and Sad to say... but same things doesn't work twice especially when it comes to creepy or scaring someone...
I'm immune to those Reptile eyes, and Keiichi's fearsome face doesn't effect me one bit... killing someone with baseball bat is dead boring. I guess I'll download a few of the ep then only I start watching...

Well for starters. If youre going to kill yourself, why do it the hard way? Because banging your head in to a big knife sure as hell aint the quickest way Razz

Well maybe she was being possesed or sumthing...

It was somewhat creepy when all those townspeople came out and started to stare at the "outsiders".

Really can't say much about the plot, yet.
Maybe govement or some nameless croup are conducting some weird tests with a new drug/Bio-weapon? That makes people see something they really shouldn't? Nah... I'm rooting for a supernatural cause Wink

It is rewinded to get the stories of other girls in. To completely end an arc and to start with a new one is kinda hard, the easiest is the "reset" button

Episode 5... Can't decide what to make out of this. Seems like more like putting the basis in...

Okay, same concept, but this time we got Rika banging her head into a knife, and Shion laughing like hell. Expected ending has been shown, but I think in the first episode (opening scenes) it shows Rika and Satoko, but in the end it is Rena and Mion.

My bet is that Shion and Mion will go fighting over Keiichi. Mion isn't as devious as she looks (her cute side shows at the lunch box thingy, and the last few moments of it.), and Shion isn't as cutesy pie as she acts (Motorcycle, how she "blatantly" taking chances over Keiicihi's confusion over who really sent the lunch box, how she make the first move). And Shion will be the one banging her head on the (blunt) knife... Now to see how the story unravels...
