With a small audience and a quick end, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for anyone who wants a laugh, sci-fi fans and animation lovers.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- 1 season: a few weeks of evenings, short, snackable episodes, about 8 hours in all.
- What might put you off
- Rated TV-14: scary moments. Probably too much for younger kids.
- It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
When nearby construction disturbs a spiritual resting place, its disgruntled denizens do what any supernatural beings would do after a rude awakening: they terrorize the local school. And that means it’s up to a scruffy band of young ghostbusters to expel their satanic schoolmates before everyone gets sent to permanent detention! So join Satsuki, her crybaby brother, the resident class stud, the school nerd and "physical researcher," a born-again beauty, and a resentful, demon-possessed cat in the funniest, scariest school you’ve ever enrolled in.
