Always nice to have Yamishibai back. Between this and Aguu it looks that I'll have my horror anime fix for Summer Very Happy

Be fair, Season 4 WAS worth dumping on. Oyyyy.... Anime catgrin + sweatdrop

Season 5 was just...okay--in that it went back to traditional series formula and tried to pretend S4 never happened--but there's nowhere for it really to go, after Season 3 thought it was "wrapping up" the mystery of the Storyteller.

In the last S5 episode, we get a story without narration, spoiler[our hero dies at the end and wanders into some realm where he meets the Storyteller for a last philosophical word.]
Which sort of resembled the off-topic treatment of Pinhead in some of those cheap later direct-video "Hellraiser" sequels, where new producers basically had no idea who the character was, and had him just stroll in and out of the story like a vanity franchise celebrity-cameo.

[Edit]: added spoiler tags. Errinundra.

Mainly western people, and japanese don't really care their opinions.
