Horror as a genre certainly isn’t close to the scale of romantic comedies and/or fighting series within the realm of anime, though there has been some attempts in the past, with the likes of The Junji Ito Collection, Shiki, and Blood C to name a few. Certainly, while not categorized as straight horror, there have been some supernatural series such as Berserk, Bleach, Jujutsu Kaisen, and various Shonen series that haven’t been afraid to dive into some creatures that definitely don’t look like they come from our Earth. While there are still many mysteries revolving around the story of Housing Complex C, the new trailer certainly isn’t shy about adding buckets of blood to the unique story that is set to arrive from Toonami and the animation studio known as Akatsuki.
Adult Swim shared the trailer for Housing Complex C which landed on Toonami earlier this year, giving fans the opportunity to catch it on Youtube to try to pierce together the story beats before this horrific original series hits the Cartoon Network Programming Block:
