Joshan K @RT09646605 Aug 22 I found this show confusing at times - especially the ending. The show was at it's best when RIrika's character was involved.

I dislike gore, but in this series, it does add an extra layer of macabre to the history of the house and its inhabitants. I would've loved to see another, final season that would conclude the story, but it seems unlikely.

Maybe it's lost in the Japanese-to-English translation, but a lot of what's happening is left to the viewer's interpretation. It's worth a re-watch but should that be necessary? See more 07/16/2022 Terrible. It had one decent scare. The time jumps were confusing and hard to follow. Made no damned sense. And the final "shock" death of the series had me laughing my ass off at its ridiculousness. Skip skip skip I joined this website solely so I could warn anyone I could. See more 06/26/2022 Assuming you don't find the concept of The Grudge as too cheesy, this is a good watch. It expands on how this can come to be, and it is rather terrifying watching the descent into madness of one of the young female characters. The plot is fairly simple and not overly complicated. It does not attempt to recreate the films or original characters. It breathes from fresh life into the franchise and is definitely worth it. See more 02/12/2022 A breath of fresh air into a franchise that's been beaten down by its american remakes and rehashings. If you're a fan of Japanese horror then this is a must, it's a twist on the Ju-On lore and isn't afraid to shake things up to make the show different to its prior silver screen counterparts, though the CG can be a bit bad at times it's far from the worst thing I've seen from a Japanese horror piece. The series isn't afraid to tackle dark and heavy subjects and also references real world tragedies that happened in Japan during the times that the show takes place, adding to that uncomfortable feeling that it could feed into something like this being real.
