Shadow House Anime invites viewers to the Gothic mystery.

Mixed-sex children lined up side by side sing together in unison. Live dolls are happy to serve the Shadow family. Children pick up a glass filled with brown liquid and drink it. The TV anime that started with such a mysterious introduction is Shadow House, which is currently being broadcast. Based on the manga of the same name serialized in Weekly Young Jump by manga artist Soumato, up to 7 volumes of comics are currently on sale. In the large Western-style shadow house standing on the cliff, live like an aristocrat, and serve the shadow family of a faceless clan called Okage-Sama and the shadow as a servant. Living dolls live. The mystery surrounding the world of the work deepens with each broadcast, or the mystery is revealed, and the composition that is worrisome about the next week’s broadcast is attracting the attention of anime fans. The people of the Shadow family have black faces as well as limbs, and they can’t see their eyes or lips, let alone their facial expressions. As soot comes out of your body, things you touch and clothes you wear become black and dirty, and you must always clean the room. On the other hand, the living dolls who serve each of the Shadow family are taking care of the shadows around them, and are working hard every day to hone themselves to act as faces. Emilico, the living doll who is the main character of this work, is a little clumsy, but Kate who works brightly and hard to help Kate of the shadow family, and Kate who speaks with less emotional ups and downs is also positive and bright positive in everything. I like Emilico and look at her. Numerous pods of the original is a clunker or drop the shelf of dolls or defeat the vase is Emiriko act, the sound effect when taking the bread out of the pocket PanThere are many places where the artist’s design is helped and drawn with a pleasant nuance, but in the animation, the mysterious atmosphere of the original is extruded more deeply. I wonder if the voice, music, and background colors, which are elements unique to animation that is not found in manga, can express a mysterious worldview so effectively. It can be said that the fun of the original is a great example of being animated. Kenichiro Suehiro, who is in charge of the playThe instrumental opening theme a hollow shadow composed by ReoNa is drawn to the mysterious world of Shadow House with the melody of the strings wearing a Gothic mystery atmosphere, and the ending theme Nainai sung by ReoNa. The deep lyrics that are close to the content of the work are engraved on the minor chords, which fuels expectations for the next week. It is this work that makes you realize how important music in anime is. Why shouldn’t live dolls snoop around the Shadow family? Why is there a place in the mansion where living dolls should not enter? What is the relationship between the Shadow family and living dolls? What exactly is a shadow family that is not visited by outside visitors in the first place? Who is the great uncle who can’t even say a living doll? A number of mysteries deepen as the broadcast progresses. Regarding casting, while most of the shadows appearing in this work and the living dolls that serve them are played separately by the same voice actor, the main character pair Emilico and Kate are each in charge of different voice actors. Is there any reason for it? What kind of landing point will the Shadow House, in which the viewer pursues the mystery hidden in the story from the same perspective as Emilico and gradually unravels it, reach? Since the serialization is still ongoing, TV animation will have its own way of ending, but it is interesting to look at the ending of the disturbing and mysterious story described as a Gothic mystery on the official anime website. I want to.
