Every time this…thing….comes on screen, I want to crawl out of my skin.
I genuinely think that Ghost Hound is significantly improving. We’ve gone about nine episodes now, which is a long run for a show to go from “this is interesting” to “this is actually quite neat” but I think they’ve finally set all the pieces in place and the rest of the series can just chug along by its own devices.
Or maybe I’m just really creeped out by that…thing…up there. But that…thing…was not the only creepy moment of this episode. The mandatory TOCK….TOCK…TOCK… part with the psychologist character (I will never get tired of that sound effect ever, it’s STILL menacing) was excellent, and it’s nice to see him, with his scientific mindset, get actually involved in the weird going-ons. And I think further evidence that Kakuriko is leaking–Makoto’s father saw worm-things surrounding his daughter (wife?) while she played Tetris or Puyopuyo or something like that.
I think this show is finally hitting its stride. Let’s all hope it doesn’t trip and fall over its own shoes on the way.
It’s when the black thing starts to run that gives me the creeps. You know, repeating the same thing three times and all.
