Dark Gathering (2023– )
7/10
Tensions are always there
14 January 2024
When it comes to horror-themed television, tensions are always there. Since, let's be honest, it resembles a Sports anime. It will undoubtedly be a failure in many ways if it doesn't succeed in certain areas. It will be mid at most. If the scares and other methods used to create such fear are ineffective, then horror isn't worth it. It will then collapse onto its face. Fortunately, Dark Gathering here offers much more than that and truly comes across as a fun horror series.

A successful horror show requires a well-balanced cast of characters. It would be undesirable to have a lifeless, uninteresting figure running around the show and ruining it. Fortunately, this show features a fantastic cast of characters that complement one another wonderfully and add significantly to the plot, leaving you wanting more and more. Hell, the entire Yayoi situation ought to be sufficient justification for you to read or watch Dark Gathering in general. It's what truly makes an anime stand out when one standout character combines strong storytelling, a compelling plot, and excellent presentation.

I must award this with high points for several reasons. To start, just take a peek at the cover! That serves as more than one example, as does the way the program is contextualized. Though at times it may seem a little mild, it has a lot more power to shock you when you least expect it to with its gory images that make for an uncomfortable watch. Then, to truly make the landing stick, a spine-tingling sound design is used to create an intense atmosphere that will have you on the edge of your seat.
