Gosick is set in the fictional European country of Sauville in the 1920s. Kazua Kujo is a transfer student to St. Marguerite Academy, a place where myths and superstitions are abundant. While there he chances upon Victorique, a mysterious yet highly intelligent girl who spends her days in the seclusion of the library reading its entire contents and solving mysteries that the local detectives cannot solve.
Following their (currently) Australian-exclusive English release of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai, Siren Visual felt content not to end their releases of supernatural mystery series with just that. opting to also licence and release Shiki in the region which was previously released by Funimation Entertainment in North America. To be honest I have been sitting on this series for a couple of months now since its August 2012 release after finding the first few episodes to be slow and rather dull. But as I don't generally write a review on a series without having watched every episode first after the release of the second Part I took to cramming it all in a day. and found it to be a surprisingly interesting watch.
