Dark Gathering is without a doubt one of the most impressive horror anime I've ever seen.
This anime, which has the vibe of Pokemon but with horror and the aesthetic of When They Cry! (another anime that's on my favorites list), is superbly well thought out.
In a world where it's normal for spirits to exist, it manages to both surprise us and keep us on a leash to find out what happens next.
Unlike Mieruko-Chan, which was mainly written for its comedy, Dark Gathering also has its laugh-out-loud moments (like in the last episode, when Yayoi tells Eiko that there's nothing to fear from the corpse hanging at the entrance, he's harmless), but above all its more serious moments, when the atmosphere changes completely and we find ourselves in a real horror anime, where since real death can really happen, we start to fear for our protagonists and even for ourselves.
I hope with all my heart that we'll get a season 2.
