Great Horror

This is a rather late review of Shiki, however I felt that it must be done. The reason that I am posting such a late review, even though I watched this anime when it first aired in summer of 2010, is because since the story was really slow you have all the episodes to download at once instead of having to wait the longest week ever! However slow the story is, it is also really really great! My one gripe about the story though is that the ending was left really open, so unless there is a second season then the ending leaves you with questions. Another thing that I did not like about this anime was how the characters' eyes looked. It would be ok if only the vampires, or shiki, had eyes like that but it's not ok when all the characters do. Other than that this anime is one of my favorite in the horror/suspense genre. If you're looking for something in this genre to marathon, then I easily recommend this because once you get into you're gonna want to keep watching to see how it develops!
