The art style used in this series is not everyone's cup of tea. LOADS of symbolism, some minimalism and futurism and surrealism/experimental Russian style for specific plot events. The extreme difference is art style between regular world and witch world is very interested. If you've ever read classic cosmic horror (Lovecraft) they usually narrate the otherworldly as "colours / creatures that cannot be described and drive you mad", "non-Euclidean architecture" and "names that destroy you if you try to pronounce them". For a 2D character looking at stop-motion collage, it's probably that kind of feeling if our 3D selves were to be put into a horror dimension. By the way, the series is the inferior medium. It's been reworked into 2 movies with a much bigger budget, better visuals, cut filler etc.

Did anybody else have weird syncing issues with this episode? I was watching the version on Crunchyroll, which seems to have the same translation as the Funimation version, since Anna and Ben were reading the same lines... But every so often I'd notice them reacting to lines and moments that hadn't happened on my end yet, and I have to pause them for a second to catch up. The Crunchyroll version doesn't have the Funimation logo at the beginning, but I matched it to the start of the actual episode, so that shouldn't mater... Do the two versions play at different speeds for some reason? ANYWAY, despite all that, I'm super happy for this reaction, can't wait for the rest. Thank you!

Does Crunchyroll have the Blu-Ray version? Funimation usually switches to the Blu-Ray version when that becomes available and Crunchyroll doesn't. I don't know if that's the case here, but that might be the reason for your issues. But like with any Shaft Anime you should always watch the Blu-Ray version, as they tend to make a lot of changes and corrections.
