Forums - General Discussion - Can someone PLEASE help me find this anime!!!!

It's absolutely killing me that I can't find it. I only saw a few pictures of it while browsing through anime, and I promised myself that I'd go back to it later, but I forgot what it was called.

What I remember is that the anime had a strong focus on japanese folklore, which is what drew me in. From what I remember, most of the characters where fictional beings from myth. Like there was this one, seemingly fodder character, who looked like an oni. He was red and had horns, but he was in a kimono, and looked like just a regular not important citizen. I'm pretty sure most of the people were like this. They where all japanese myth creature living in this traditional old-school town like it was normal. It definitely must take place in the past. Oh, and I'm pretty sure there was a girl in a red... Something who is the lead. She looks like a human, though I don't know if there is anything special about her. The anime looks like it was made more recently, so I don't think it's older than like 2009.

Please help!

EDIT: One more thing. It doesn't look like the type of anime with like fanservice or anything like that.

Hard to look for.

Was it a series or a movie? Localized? What kind of genre, comedy, drama?

Never mind! I just found it looking through like 40 pages of a list of every single anime made so far lol. It's called "The Essentric Family," and it's literally nothing like what I described lol. What I saw was a specific part of a particular episode. This is the image I was talking about.



Lol. I watched that and it was actually on my mind the whole time as there are only very few folklore animes every season. It really is nothing like what you described^^

Depends on what you are looking for. It's very mellow and philosophic. It has a constant dramatic and melancholic vibe to it which never let's you rest easy though.

If you like highly philosophic dia- and monologues and can take it at a very slow pace then it's for you.
