Another presents us one very interesting anime premise, and backs this good premise with a very pleasant setting, that is of course if by pleasant you mean blood-filled mystery curse. This anime starts off with the ‘’cursed school’’ horror story archetype and builds its whole story around that fact. What makes this anime particularly interesting compared to another horror story with the same style is the fact that Another grants us the blessing of ambiance, stress and suspense. Another stages the story magnificently, generating a true element of mystery and stress, giving us an ease to get into the story rather quickly and get hooked on to the anomaly present in their class. It also creates a rather satisfying buildup of emotions and horror which only augment the already well-established mood. Problem (because there almost always is one), is, it does both of these things up to the middle of the anime, where it lets down the mystery aspect and tries to explain the whole thing to us; the stressful mood quickly drops after that since we are given a ‘’rule’’ applying to the curse, placing us back in our comfort zone no matter what happens since it all goes ‘’according to plan’’.
