Synopsis

College student Sorawo Kamikoshi explores "doors" which randomly lead into Otherside—parallel worlds in which internet creepypasta and urban legends are brought to life. Sorawo nearly dies in one of these worlds while encountering a creepypasta monster, but is rescued by Toriko Nishina, another young woman who is skilled with guns and is looking for a lost friend.[2] Sorawo and Toriko, with the help of another woman named Kozakura, return to Otherside to bring back artifacts and defeat the monsters, but the two are increasingly affected by the conditions of the worlds, meet other humans who are trapped in them, and find themselves increasingly affected by each other.

Characters

Sorawo Kamikoshi (紙越 空魚, Kamikoshi Sorawo)
Voiced by: Yumiri Hanamori[3]
A sophomore at a university in Saitama Prefecture. She loves and has a wealth of knowledge about urban legends and real-life ghost stories. She enjoys exploring abandoned buildings, and discovered the existence of Otherside through a door she found while doing so. She doesn't have many friends, but Toriko, who she met in Otherside, invites her to go there to explore, research, and earn money. Her mother instantly died in an accident, and her grandmother and father became devoted to a cult afterwards, causing her to repeatedly run away from home and explore abandoned houses to escape her disintegrating family, which was persuading her to join the cult, but after her grandmother and father died, she is now attending college on a scholarship.
Toriko Nishina (仁科 鳥子, Nishina Toriko)
Voiced by: Ai Kayano[3]
A woman who searches Otherside for her missing friend Satsuki. She appears to be a college student. Both of her parents passed away, but she was a soldier in Joint Task Force 2, a special operations force of the Canadian army, and is familiar with firearms. She has long blond hair and is, in the opinion of Sorawo, "extremely beautiful." Her character in the story is very positive, but she has a tendency to isolate herself from others, and has no friends other than Sorawo and Satsuki, who was Toriko's tutor.
Kozakura (小桜)
Voiced by: Rina Hidaka[4]
A researcher of Otherside who has a residence near Shakujii Park. A friend of Satsuki's from her college days, she was concerned about Satsuki's investigation of Otherside because it was dangerous and had warned her many times. When Satsuki ignores her warnings and continues with her research, she goes missing, which makes her angry and frustrated with Satsuki. When Sorawo first meets Kozakura, she looks so young that she gives off the impression of being in grade school, but she appears to be older than Sorawo and Toriko, and is shown drinking and driving a car. As a hobby, she has created an avatar named "Yozakura" on the Internet and has been streaming videos. The image of Yozakura is based on that of her friend Satsuki. In the past, she created another avatar based on her own image, but destroyed it due to the increase in the number of fans who disagreed with her intentions. For Sorawo and Toriko, she is a client of the goods they obtained during their exploration of Otherside, and is in the position of a consultant. The artifacts that Sorawo and Toriko have acquired in Otherside are purchased by Kozakura, while the funds to purchase them are provided by the DS Research Encouragement Association, a research organization that Satsuki and Kozakura joined to conduct research on Otherside.
Satsuki Uruma (閏間 冴月, Uruma Satsuki)
Kozakura's peer who was exploring Otherside. She disappears three months before the start of the story. She is a tall woman with long black hair and thick-rimmed glasses. She invited her friend Kozakura to be her partner in order to expand her investigation of Otherside, but Kozakura was afraid of Otherside and refused, so she went to search for a promising replacement partner. Toriko Nishina was one of them.
Akari Seto (瀬戸 茜理, Seto Akari)
Voiced by: Miyu Tomita[4]
A freshman student studying at the same university as Sorawo. She is a karate practitioner and won the prefectural tournament in high school. She is from Saitama, but lives alone in an apartment because her parents moved away for work reasons. Her personality is bright and curious.
Yōichirō Migiwa (汀 曜一郎, Migiwa Yōichirō)
A man who serves as the Director General of DS. Although he is not a researcher himself, he once went to Central America during his adolescence because of his devotion to Carlos Castaneda, and he has a tattoo of Maya scripts on his arm. He is skilled in the use of firearms, traps, and torture, and has a personal connection to a private military company, making him a man of many mysteries.
Natsumi Ichikawa (市川 夏妃, Ichikawa Natsumi)
Akari's childhood friend and confidant. After graduating from high school, she did not go on to higher education, but instead works at her family's garage.

1"Wiggle-Waggle Hunting"
Transcription: "Kunekune Hantingu" (Japanese: くねくねハンティング)
Tomoe MakinoTakuya SatōJanuary 4, 2021 (2021-01-04)[35]
College student Sorawo Kamikoshi is trapped in a bog pool in another world, afraid she'll die alone, when another woman named Toriko Nishina stumbles across her and pulls her out. The two then encounter a monster called a "Wiggle-Waggle" that will supposedly turn them insane if they look at it for too long. Toriko throws some rock salt at the monster and it turns into a strange cube with reflective surfaces. The next day, in the real world, Toriko tracks down Sorawo and asks her to help hunt more Wiggle-Waggles to sell them to a specialized researcher. After encountering another Wiggle-Waggle, the rock salt doesn't work, and neither does the pistol that Toriko carries with her. After staring at the Wiggle-Waggle for several seconds, Sorawo percieves the real form of the monster long enough for Toriko's pistol to shoot it.

Kōji AritomiTakuya SatōJanuary 11, 2021 (2021-01-11)[36]
After the events of their last trip to the "otherside," Sorawo's right eye now turns blue and Toriko's left hand turns translucent at random. The two head off to sell their mysterious cube to a girl named Kozakura, who specializes in otherside phenomena and pays handsomely for the cube, but has no solution for their recent body modifications. Toriko tells Sorawo that she's raising money to fund her otherside expeditions to find her friend Satsuki, who disappeared in the recent past. Back in the otherside, the two encounter a man who has been looking for his missing wife, and claims that the otherside has been sending agents into their own reality for some nefarious purpose. The man wanders into a building with Toriko and Sorawo notices a woman who looks like "Hasshaku-sama," but the man thinks she is his missing wife and disappears after touching her. Sorawo suddenly awakens to realize the Hasshaku-sama has been using her feelings for Toriko against her. Sorawo and Toriko then team up to banish Hasshaku-sama and escape the otherside.
3"Big-Head Village"

Yūta TakamuraIori MiyazawaJanuary 18, 2021 (2021-01-18)[37]
Sorawo tries to sort through her feelings about Toriko when the two of them return to the "otherside" to visit a shack that Satsuki might have used in the past. As they travel through the otherside, they remember the man's warnings about "glitches" and toss rocks along the path to ensure they don't die from a wrong step. Eventually the two come across a desolate village, though Sorawo notices an offering of rice left in the recent past in one of the houses. Suddenly, Sorawo and Toriko are on the run from "Big Heads," insect-like monsters with big heads who chase them in large numbers. Sorawo spots a shrine that provides an emergency exit back to the real world and escapes with Toriko.

Sorawo receives a warning from the "Space-Time Man", an Otherside being taking the form of a middle-aged man, not to investigate the Otherside any further or she'll be trapped there forever. Later at a cafe, Sorawo asks Toriko if Satsuki is even still alive after three months in the Otherside. Toriko abruptly leaves to go to the Otherside herself. The next day, Sorawo visits Kazakura to tell her about recent events, when Kozakura notices a picture of Satsuki on her phone. Suddenly, some strange people start banging on Kozakura's door. Kozakura unlocks a shotgun to face them, and Sorawo discovers that the door has become another portal to the Otherside, taking Kozakura with her by accident. Sorawo ignores a repeated warning from the Space-Time Man and navigates through some strange plant-like monsters to find Toriko in a copy of her apartment. Toriko believes she has finally found Satsuki, but Sorawo sees another monster and keeps firing Kozakura's shotgun at it until it disappears.

Reception

Constance Sarantos of CBR says that the series breaks the mold of the yuri genre, avoiding common stereotypes of the genre and creating a unique narrative, defying, in their view, "expectations for a yuri anime" as it delves into the horror genre and has a "Relationship built on crime and survival" rather than a slice of life about "interpersonal romantic drama."[41] Sarantos also said that the series shows how well the sci-fi and yuri genres can mix, combining themes of fear and romance, something which isn't often used in yuri anime, with the protagonists having to "work together to defeat frightening foes." Even so, Sarantos stated that while the anime doesn't "deconstruct the yuri genre" it shares storyboarding which "emphasizes intimate moments and loneliness" with Bloom Into You, Just Call it Love, Fragtime, Liz and the Blue Bird, and Adachi and Shimamura, among others, utilizing the "emotional scenery one would expect from a yuri series." In that respect, Sarantos said that it is similar to Kemono Friends and Girls' Last Tour, adding that there is an expectation it will "nail the aesthetic of yuri" even though it is an "unconventional yuri narrative." Reviewers for Anime News Network shared the sentiment of Sarantos.[42]

Caitlin Moore called the series "one of a kind" and a welcome addition to a series of yuri anime about "teenagers falling blushingly in love for the first time," with neither of the protagonists, Sorawo or Toriko, not based on stereotypes. Even so, Moore said that the chemistry between them "could have come through stronger," called the visuals a "mixed bag" and said that there has been "a real lack of queer genre fiction in anime" recently, meaning she is "all the more excited to explore it." James Beckett, on the other hand, said that he was only lukeworm to the anime and said that while he is "not asking the show to answer all of my questions upfront," he would like "a little more context" and that he hopes that it "manages to live up to its potential." Similarly, Nicholas Dupree said that he feels the show lost him the premiere, even while he called the two protagonists a "charming central couple," and can't "click with the episode as a whole" while Theron Martin was more positive, saying that the series could be "worth watching" just for the interactions between the two protagonists. Just as positive was Rebecca Silverman, saying that the series was fascinating and creepy, saying it will likely be a faithful adaption of the yuri manga it is based on, while saying there are "a few little missteps" and would like to know more "about the whole urban legend/internet myths piece" too. Additionally, Hannah Alton of CBR argued that the series stands apart from the "usual fare" of the isekai genre because it is a yuri series, with the protagonists not trapped in the other world, but can easily move from the real world to the fictional world known as the Otherside, with the danger within the Otherside, which is "populated by monsters from Japanese urban legends" which can be killed unless someone looks directly at them.[43]

Alton further says the two protagonists standout in the genre, with Sorawo as a college student who "keeps to herself" and Toriko who is experienced at using a gun, something which violates existing Japanese law, which tightly controls firearms. Alton concludes by saying that while the anime falls into the isekai genre, it is different "from the usual high fantasy adventures in empowerment." Others have praised the anime, along with Moyasimon and Genshiken, saying that this prove that college anime can "offer a different take on "coming of age" storylines than the standard high school tropes" while focusing on "serious adult issues" like interpersonal conflict, struggles over identity, and mental health.[44] Additionally, Christopher Farris reviewed the anime's fourth episode for Anime News Network, noting that the vibes and ideas of the episode fit the series, while pointing to inconsistencies with the storytelling, and stating that within the theme of fear, everything else "works wonderfully," praising the sound design and how it taps into people's fears.[45] Jordan Ramée of Gamespot praised the anime for starring adults, unlike most anime, calling it a "a refreshingly wonderful series" which has a "pretty cute and wholesome romance."[46]
