Anime can often work as a platform perfect for combining unconventional genres and polar opposite characters, thus providing stories that are beyond conventional barriers. Of these, horror and supernatural themes have been among the most striking, eliciting feelings ranging anywhere from fear to fascination. Yet, very few anime can pull it off with many dark tones combined with humor and heartwarming moments. Dark Gathering is a series that aired back in July 2023 and managed to impress audiences with its special form of storytelling and the merging of genres in an enchanting manner.
