YMMV / The Sekimeiya: Spun Glass

• Awesome Art: The cover art and some of the CGs were done by KU and they simply look gorgeous.
• Awesome Music:
  • "Relentless Pursuit" by auvic, the music used in the trailer, perfectly captures the mysterious atmosphere.
  • "2085 a Space Odyssey" accompanies the scene where you learn about Isla's strange time-travel-related death. It captures both the tragedy of the moment, and the feeling of being helpless in the face of an inexplicable power.
  • "Fever Dream" is an enthralling, dramatic song which plays at several memorable moments, such as the end of chapter 1 where Atsuki and others realize that the door isn't going to open and they're trapped in the darkness.
• Nightmare Fuel:
  • The final chapter confirms one of the more disquieting properties of the Sekimeiya: if you travel to a location that's occupied by a solid object, it means a Tele-Frag. Even minor changes in the location of objects can result in chunks getting torn out of your body. Something as minor as world-switching while lying in a bed can be lethal: Since your body now slightly overlaps the bed's unoccupied flat mattress, a large chunk of your back body gets obliterated! The narration explicitly states that this would have happened to Miiya C, if she hadn't gotten out of bed just in time.
  • In one of the bad endings, the Sekimeiya causes a third of Japan's population to vanish from existence—simply because the Sekimeiya was left out of the cold too long, allowing its spatial and temporal range to grow to ludicrous proportions. It drives home how dangerous the Sekimeiya's very existence is: it can easily wipe out humanity (or maybe all life in the universe, for all we know) by mistake if slightly mishandled!
