Line 1: {{work}} [[File:req_yea_9393.jpg\|frame\| Counterclockwise from the upper-left: Nagamimi, Momosuke, Mataichi, Ogin.]] ''~~[[Requiemfromthe~~'''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's~~its 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.]] {{tropelist}} ~~{{examples\|Examples Include}}~~ * [[Absurdly Sharp Blade]] * [[Anti-Hero]]: Mataichi, Ogin and Nagamimi are all [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes\|Type V]]. Line 22: * [[Giggling Villain]]: Tatsuta. * [[Half the Man He Used To Be]]: Men, Women, Children The [[Absurdly Sharp Blade]] makes no distiction * [[Humans Are ~~Bastards~~the Real Monsters]]: The final episode has shades of it at the beginning, but overall the show has a bit of an optimistic approach to this trope. * [[Jade Coloured Glasses]]: Momosuke dones these near the end of the series. * [[Kabuki Sounds]] Line 30: * [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Ms. Ogin, of course. * [[No Mouth]]: Most of the minor characters. The pic on that page is from this series. * [[Norio Wakamoto]]: As Nagamimi.{{context\|reason=Is this a trope?}} * [[Tears of Blood]] * [[The Noseless]]: see [[No Mouth]]. * [[Omnicidal Maniac]]: Kyogoku Tei * [[Scooby -Doo Hoax]]: A fair few of the sinners operate under this idea. * [[Wasn't Made On Drugs]] : Everything from the story to the animation. Houses bend and twist, Character designs lack facial features. Hell, Momosuke falls a sleep with a frog man sitting on his head...smoking a pipe. * [[Weirdness Magnet]]: Momosuke can't go five steps without running into some demon or serial killer. Then again, it is mostly his fault for actively seeking these things for his book. * [[When Trees Attack]]: Two for one special; decapitates a woman holding a baby. The women drops the baby. Then she falls on and ''crushes'' the baby. * [[Wide -Eyed Idealist]]: Momosuke, initially at least. {{reflist}} [[Category:MVM Entertainment]] [[Category:Anime]] [[Category:Requiem ~~From~~from ~~The~~the Darkness]] [[Category:Literature]]
