With much delay, the Ghost Hound fanlisting is for the most part complete. The icons for linking will be put up soon, as will Ghost Hound icons and avatars. The members page will be fixed shortly.

At this point, there aren’t many people watching Ghost Hound and subs have slowed. Most fans likely had very high expectations and were thinking that Ghost Hound would something else. It wasn’t filled with action and it wasn’t like Serial Experiments: Lain. Instead the anime tried to be in a class in it’s own in a way that many people didn’t notice. At least it explained itself, even those it may have cost viewers. On that note, I will do my best to have the Ghost Hound fanlisting complete and working.
The 19th episode is titled Negentropy. Another science word which means to become more in order. Was it ever mentioned that this is a depressing series? Fires, pills, death, and people turning into hound like ghosts. Mokoto’s mother nearly dies in a fire after trying to kill herself. It could have been worse, she could have died and they would have never had the chance to have a positive relationship. She did fall back to being a 17 year old again, she doesn’t remember Mokoto. Ghost Hound also has odd clothing fashion with Masayuki’s pink animal on his sweater as an example. And why is Taro wearing green socks in this episode?
Interesting how an anime where you expect to be serious and dark would have the main gang animated like Casper the friendly ghost Their ears and insides don’t help. Having eyes from above looked fine, but not this. The animation quality also seems a bit lower in Ghost Hound after the second episode. Since this is from early episodes, it’s not likely a spoiler.
Wish Ghost Hound goes further into showing the bully side of Masayuki in current time. Just love it. Hey, maybe he can go kill the creepy people at Makoto’s place. Still hope, I’m nearly caught up with the series.
In gaming news. Tecmo is releasing more about the new Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox 360. A real sequal this time and not a port, though it’ll likely be ported to the PS3…
Taro is your future local homeless drunky. Face it, he has sake all around him at home, pale, and is dealing with trauma. You can’t hold a job if you keep falling asleep. Poor future businessman Masayuki Nakajima will have to walk by Taro often on the streets. Likely randomly around the town with Taro looking bellow like he normally does. Then again, Makoto will probably move again before such.
Amazing how well Production IG animates Taro. Nearly every part with him, his hair is either moving or his emotions show well.
Enjoy the many faces of depression.
Taro Komori at the age of three years was kidnapped along with his sister. The event left Taro with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) and his sister dead. The spirituality part comes to play when Taro’s soul leaves his body into different worlds and dimensions. Along with a few other local kids that also are having similar experiences, Taro has to save his world from the spirit world. What’s kept the two worlds separate is becoming no more. Taro Komori, Makoto Ogami, and Masayuki Nakajima will likely be shown to not share the same views. Taro will likely come into contact with his sister again. Other characters include the witch doctor who is the grandparent of Makoto and the worried Miyako Komagusu. Ghost Hound is also known as Shinreigari and with Masamune Shirow leading the way along with the other well respected staff, this anime will be a fancy way to celebrate the anniversary of Production I.G. Especiallly with character designs by Mariko Oka.
