This has a pretty good story. The whole series is divided in archs of about 4 episodes. Some archs are better than others depending on your taste: some are more horror, others thriller or even detective. Most archs take place at the same time but some events are altered which causes the outcome to change.

The dialogue is really well voiced. You can easily feel a change in atmosphere, subtle hints or threats.

More realistic art might have improved the effect of this anime but other than that I have no remarks on animation. Some scenes had some very fitting effects.

I was really shocked after watching the first and the last arch. Most of the others were good as well but a few were too realistic for my taste and didn't really fit in with the others.
