I've seen four episodes so far. This is the first live-action Japanese series I've ever seen. I saw Takashi Shimizu's The Grudge, but I never saw any of the Japanese films or the other three American films. I don't find East Asian horror scary, but this show is both bizarre and very intriguing so far. If you're looking for scares, you will be disappointed, but if you are fascinated by the creepy, the eerie, and the macabre, you will enjoy this series.
