Ren Adashino's eyes from the opening of Mysterious Disappearances

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Almost every aspect of Mysterious Disappearances on Crunchyroll is unconventional, especially the small part of its story that makes this new series a reverse isekai, even though it's not official. However, these idiosyncrasies work quite well, especially since nothing about the series suggests that it will do anything except maybe cover instances where some things disappear, all of which possess an air of mystery.

The sub-genre, like isekai itself, is quite massive, and most series try to capitalize on any connection, regardless of how small. Rather appropriately, there are quite a few additional instances where Mysterious Disappearances strays from the beaten path, including how the series approaches seinen and explores the source of these eponymous departures.

As a result, it was assumed that the story of the first woman who came across such a book named Sumireko Ogawa would end once her tome, which can bring back the owner's youth, was collected. Most anime that follow an episodic format treat each of its individual stories as complete isolated incidents, especially their main characters, like in The Witch and the Beast. Only sometimes do these characters return.

This type of storytelling is mostly aligned with shonen, and yet, Mysterious Disappearances is a seinen.
