Another is a horror, mystery, and psychological thriller TV anime produced by P.A.WORKS, directed by Tsutomu Mizushima, with series composition by Ryo Higaki. Based on the acclaimed light novel by Yukito Ayatsuji, the story follows transfer student Kouichi Sakakibara as he enrolls in Class 3-3 at Yomiyama North Middle School—only to encounter the enigmatic Mei Misaki and become entangled in a deadly curse that has haunted the class for decades. With its suffocating atmosphere, relentless tension, and supernatural mystery, Another delivers a spine-chilling experience that keeps viewers on edge until the very last frame.

Set in the quiet yet unsettling town of Yomiyama, Another follows Kouichi Sakakibara, a transfer student who joins the infamous Class 3-3 at Yomiyama North Middle School. From the moment he arrives, Kouichi senses that something is deeply wrong — his new classmates seem to share a dark, unspoken secret that no one is willing to acknowledge. Amidst the tension, he becomes intrigued by Mei Misaki, a solitary girl with an enigmatic presence who appears to be completely invisible to everyone else around her. As Kouichi tries to uncover the truth behind the class's strange behavior and Mei Misaki's mysterious existence, he finds himself entangled in a terrifying phenomenon that has long haunted this particular classroom — one with consequences far more deadly than he could have imagined.
