High atop a cliff sits the mansion known as Shadows House, home to a faceless clan that pretends to live like nobles. They express their emotions through living dolls that also endlessly clean the home of soot. One such servant, Emilico, aids her master Kate as they learn more about themselves and the mysteries of the house.

Where it came from
Shadows House originated as a manga series by the creative duo known as So-ma-to, first serialized in Weekly Young Jump in 2018. The series was adapted into an anime television production by studio CloverWorks, debuting in 2021. The narrative explores the complex, gothic relationship between the shadow-like 'Shadow' family and their living dolls, using this structure to delve into themes of identity, social stratification, and the loss of innocence within a stifling, aristocratic mansion.
The visual direction for the CloverWorks adaptation, helmed by director Kazuki Ohashi, emphasizes a distinct gothic aesthetic that mirrors the source material’s focus on light, shadow, and claustrophobic mystery. Character designs were adapted by Chizuko Kusakabe to maintain the manga's unique artistic sensibilities while ensuring the fluid movement required for animation. The series was well-received for its atmospheric storytelling and its willingness to balance whimsical character dynamics with a gradually darkening, psychological narrative arc.
