    Very creative show
    Want an anime that's action packed and a well executed storyline? Then look no further than karakuri circus. I've been watching this anime for about a week now and it has me hooked. The puppets are very creative and some are quite spooky (if you don't like dolls), think of Annabelle in an action movie. It's been a while since I've watched a good anime and I watch them by the bucket load. When overlord and my hero academy ended their 3rd season I was looking for a replacement to tide me over until their return.. and boy does this one deliver. I hope this gets more viewers because its one great anime.
