There aren’t any classics in the making here, but I’m always down for Ito’s line work. The only standout here is “The Bloody Story of Shirosuna”, which gets points for some grotesque visuals.

Another fun Ito collection. Some iconic stories like The Window Next Door, Clubhouse, Tombstones and The Bloody Story of Shirosuna. Theme wise it's like a mixture of Liminal Zone + Alley, with death manifesting in contained towns/spaces. 

It has some pretty gnarly body horror that I think is one of the most outlandish anthologies, on the more corny side too.

A collection of stories that are weird and creepy. Loved it!

I just love Junji Ito. I love the style of art and the absolute grossness of some of the stories.
