really have to say i like this anime, kind of remindes me of shiki and higurashi because the setting is quite similar.
however i tend to say the anime has also been a bit too slow till this point, sure they want to spent time to build up the story, but the whole "i don´t want you to tell what happen 26 years ago" just feels kind of unnecessary because the viewer pretty much already knows what is going to happen after ep 3.
also i hope the pace will be a bit faster for the remaining episodes.
Also as for ep 4
First of all the glass scene: ever heard of securing your freight properly...how could they have not put a rope arround that glass, seriously
second elevator scene: so i okay i know this anime is set in 1998 and every fucking elevator would have some kind of emergency brake by then
to sum it up...seriously japan WTF, you used to be the land with the most well setup rules of security and know you want me to believe this shit...
also te whole thing is just going into the final destination kind of way, or at least it just pretty damn hard reminds me of it
