This anime aired in Japan from July 9 to December 31, 2010. It's quite appropriate 6 months of airing for 20 episodes. Shiki anime is packaged in 22 main episodes and 2 special episodes. Incidentally, Mimin hasn't watched the special yet, but of the 22 main episodes, it's quite worth watching. Produced by Aniplex, well from here it's enough to be appetizing, Aniplex has spawned a lot of mainstream anime that you all know (SAO, Naruto, Fullmetal Alchemist, Bleach). So it never hurts to watch.

Apperance :
For the appearance of this anime itself, it has quite a distinctive style. The impression of the aura that is displayed is so dark and dark. It fits the genre very well. Then the characters also have their own characteristics from their hairstyles. It becomes easier for us to remember the characters in Shiki.
Not to mention, the setting of the story setting that focuses on the village makes the audience feel as if they are there. Because of that, we will get to know more about each character so that we are immersed in the story. Coupled with music and sound effects that are thick with a dark aura (it's really hard to explain)

Story :
Now we get to the heart of the story. So Anime Shiki is a supernatural anime because it presents mythical creatures such as Vampires and Werewolves. At first glance, maybe we are bored, why do we have to be a vampire again, have to be a werewolf again like the films that are showing. Eitsss...but Shiki presents something different, where the story will focus on two camps that will survive each other, the vampire camp and the human side.
So?
So...the story starts from a village called Sotoba Village. In this village, the people live in peace. In the anime, the story begins with a girl named Shimizu Megumi who is amazed and dreams of a luxurious castle on a hill. He also likes our protagonist Yuuki Natsuno. The story runs until the climax of the end of the episode is the mysterious death of Megumi. The village doctor, Ozaki Toshio was confused by it. Unnatural death is like loss of blood. Initially he was diagnosed with anemia, but it turned out that there were many irregularities that made the doctor dizzy because of it. And there were various kinds of strange deaths that disturbed the villagers. So with all his might, the doctor tried to find out the truth behind the mysterious death that hit their village.
At first, after watching the first episode, Mimin thought that the deaths were only caused by one person or the evil villain. But it turns out I was wrong hehe. This anime packs a story to create a quite satisfying ending and also hufh goosebumps

Conclusion :
Overall, for the Shiki anime, I give it 8.5/10. This is according to Mimin and should not be used as a benchmark hehe.
This anime really makes me addicted. The story is quite mysterious and the ending is extraordinary, which makes this a top anime for its size.
The ending? Yes, those who are still able, please open... those who are not strong, please watch for yourself hehe...
