Could this anime be the next Hell Girl?

Also, the manga sounds interesting. I hope it gets licensed.

Could this be the next magical girl horror series?

We've had a magical girl horror series previously, haven't we? Come on, babe, refresh me memory. Laughing

Hands up if you thought of Shiki!

When I think of XXXHolic I don't think horror, but that's just me.

That said, could this be the next Trouble Chocolate? They both have chocolate in the title after all!

of all the Ciao magazine series, this gets an anime? >^< I'd prefer that Chibi Devi or Kururun Real Change! to get an anime. But I suppose I'll still give this one a shot.

I'm always a little surprised at how popular horror is with ladies in Japan. But this one has chocolate too, so I can totally understand why it would get an anime. Yum.

So I'm assuming the catchphrase for this will be:

"Perhaps it is time to...

...eat some chocolate."

Goosebumps here.

If it doesn't have a name yet my vote is for Monkey Paw.
