- “you’re killing people?”
- “no, I’m killing boys!”
absolutely could not put this down.
I love the art in this manga so much, I think it’s my favorite now. for some reason I’ve never actually read any horror manga (weird considering how horror is one of my fave genres) and this was a great introduction. NEED to get my hands on the rest of ito’s work!!
I have a lot to think about with this collection of stories, I can’t really articulate everything right now - but damn, I loved it. the creativity is incredible. tomie is really awful but I just feel so sympathetic towards her at the same time.
deffffinitely will reread this. and I need to get a physical copy immediately so I can admire the artwork as intended 🩸
faves in no particular order:
- painter
- waterfall basin
- hair
- basement
Graphic: Fire/Fire injury, Injury/Injury detail, Murder, Blood, Cannibalism, Gore, Death, Suicide, and Body horror
Moderate: Sexual content, Torture, Vomit, Medical content, Rape, and Sexual assault
