doram Aug 17 2021 2:21 am Hmmm I don't know what to feel about this movie.. The synopsis looks promising but after I watch it... my reaction was: will there be the 2nd season or what? ._. The main villain is like an urban legend, I was hoping things will get real and there will be some kind of adjudication to everything the main characters do, but...well.. maybe that is the intention of the mangaka. For those looking for suspense/ thriller/ crime/ detective/ action movies, this is not for you. I'd say this movie's genre is fantasy.

phikr1 Sep 04 2018 2:22 am i feel like this movie could miles better if they exploit more the relationship between usobuki and tada, the conflicting idea between them, who is correct and who is wrong maybe both ot them are or neither of them, i think that would be much more interesting than showing how they are trying to catch him

also it would better do away from some floppy act then again it might be the subtitle i used that make everything seems worse

Lia Apr 25 2018 4:01 pm So anyone know when we'll be able to watch it?

not exactly a boy version of Hell Girl because Tadashi Usobuki is still a human here and kills people for fun

RPL Jan 25 2018 3:56 am Honestly think the 4 eps special are not good. It only describes what Usobuki Tadashi always does with his victims, without giving explanation on his ability, relation with Tada Tomoko, or a the mistery around it. But I hope the movie will do it and might become better. I haven't read the manga though, but maybe have similar things.

You don't need to watch the TV series because it often exploits s*x. Ep 1 seems like I'm watching a porn video, then gore.

May Nov 02 2017 12:57 pm Tori looks sooo good in the poster . I honestly can’t wait for this!!

toriiii Oct 31 2017 12:58 pm babe omooooo i kenat wait he looks so good in the poster

Mirtika Aug 18 2017 10:53 am Wow, I love this manga (Funohan) and am really excited for this drama. The cast looks good. This is gonna be fun!

berceuse Oct 31 2016 3:58 am Okay, so Hell Girl but a boy version?
