Tomie English Sub & Dub

About Tomie

Meet Tomie, a supernatural, drama and horror anime by Studio Deen (2018). Here is the premise in a nutshell. At its core: Memories, both good and bad, suffuse the high school experience. Whether it's hanging out with companions or cramming for tests, everyone has something they will remember from that time in their lives.

Along the way, at a certain high school, one class is faced with an event that can cause people to look back on their high school days in sadness: the death of a pupil. The deceased is not just any pupil—she's Tomie Kawakami, a popular girl with an almost otherworldly beauty. Her death was particularly gruesome: her body was dismembered and the pieces scattered.

With supernatural at the core, spirits, curses and unexplained forces shape both mood and plot. This one is best suited to fans of eerie, otherworldly settings.

Production & Appeal

Studio Deen is the studio behind Tomie, and its direction shapes everything from character design to motion. The supernatural focus matters here: spirits, curses and unexplained forces shape both mood and plot. With a 5.9/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. It aired in 2018, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
