And the novel is inspired by Strugatsky's (co-written by brothers) "Roadside Picnic".

Interesting that it's marketed as a yuri title. I read the first chapters of the manga version of this and it was very light on yuri but - and that was what drew me more into this - it delivered really well on this STALKER / SCP / otherworld vibe.

Come to think of it - in that regards it kinda reminds me a bit of Murasakiiro no Qualia. Where I also started it for the yuri and stayed for the story/weird science/etc.

A bit weird seeing Yuri as a genre on something non-romance, but this looks interesting enough. More Supernatural and Mystery anime is always welcome.
Objectivity? In my anime scoring? Of course not...

Excellent, the Yuri is evolving and now encompasses other genres in addition to romance, leaving aside fan service and giving more elaborate plot ^^
