About the Anime: (by Wikipedia)

In 1972, Misaki, a student of Yomiyama North Middle School's class 3-3, suddenly died partway through the school year. Devastated by the unexpected loss, the students and teachers behaved like Misaki was still alive, leading to a strange presence on the graduation photo. In Spring 1998, 15-year-old Kōichi Sakakibara transfers into Yomiyama's class 3-3, where he meets Mei Misaki, a strange student whom their classmates and teachers seemingly ignore. The class is soon caught up in a strange phenomenon, in which students and their relatives begin to die in mysterious ways. Realizing that these deaths are related to the "Misaki of 1972", it is up to Kōichi and Mei to discover the cause of these mysterious deaths and figure out how to stop it before it kills them.

My Review: This anime is really, really good. I watched it in the subbed because the dubbed voices weren't that impressive.

I loved the plot and all of the characters and it's really surprising; especially when you don't know what happens next.

I do, however, wish there were more episodes. It's one of the ones that needs more.

I really like the theme song, too. I'm not sure why...

Rating: 10/10
