Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
MAIL was adapted from a Housui Yamazaki manga that ran in Comic Burger, a seinen magazine known for horror titles.
This came out during the dying breath of the J-horror boom, when studios were greenlighting anything with ghosts and wet hair. The 4.5 rating is almost a badge of honor.
