Otogizoushi follows a group of characters through 2 arcs: one set in ancient Japan, and one in contemporary Tokyo. There is a sense of mystery in the story, and it does reach an answer to the mystery at the end, for those of you that don't like open endings. The first arc is definitely the stronger of the two. Overall, worth watching if you like historical, supernatural, and mystery series.
