Senritsu Kaiki File Kowasugi: Final Chapter (2015)

The End of Evangelion of found footage

Beautiful ending for a great series. Man this goes places.

(Review written after watching the entire series):
This series is well and truly one of my favourite pieces of media ever and by far my favourite piece of horror media. Endlessly comforting, scary, ambitious, batshit crazy, endearing and likeable, disturbing, and infinitely intriguing. The universe Shiraishi-san has built is so complex and interesting it has been over a decade since it started and somehow it still becomes more intricate with every entry.

Jin Kudo is one of my favourite characters ever, partially thanks to the amazing performance by Shigeo Osako, but let's not forget the rest of the fantastic cast, Chika Kuboyama's Ichikawa and Shiraishi-san's Tashiro. It wouldn't be the same without any of them. Due to some circumstances that happened while making my way through this series, it is pretty personal to me as well, and solidified itself as my favourite piece of comfort media.

Thank you, Kudo-san. Thank you, Ichikawa-san. Thank you, Tashiro-san. Thank you, Shiraishi-san. You have created, in my eyes, a masterpiece, very close to my heart, and I will forever be grateful for it. Please release File 11 soon though, I don't want to wait too long.

Well...
It's over. But we will meet in a new world. This is just the beginning. We'll see you later. Thank you very much.
