''[['''Requiem from the Darkness]]''''' (Kousetsu Hyaku Monogatari, Hundred Stories) is a series of novels; these novels were adapted into an anime and a Live Action show. The anime especially is known for it'sits rather bizarre plot-lines and story elements; said story follows [[Narrator|Momosuke]] as he travels around [[Feudal Japan]] in a search for one hundred ghost stories. But while doing this, he runs across a [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits]]. They fight evil; well, kind of, anyway. Think [[Darker and Edgier]] [[Scooby Doo]]. The series is also known for making lazy animation an artform, seriously they turn it into an [[Disability Superpower|advantage.]]
