Yeah yeah, this may be a controversial statement, but I would love NOTHING MORE than to be proven wrong.

I genuinely believe that there’s no good horror anime out there. Something that actually gives you chills and makes you Avert your eyes from the screen just doesn’t exist. Junji ito is creepy and gross, sure, but I wouldn’t say it does enough to be considered proper horror

Other horror animes just have a creepy aesthetic or rely on dark story beats like shiki or another. I don’t know if it’s just the disconnect from being animated in the first place, but I don’t think anime is capable of delivering a true horror experience.

Please, if you disagree, prove me wrong, I need to be wrong about this

I think this is it, it’s just hard to imagine yourself in the characters place when their world doesn’t look like your world
