Jack in the Box, le lumache, il faro: siamo sullo stesso altissimo livello delle precedenti storie, e anche quella sulle madri zanzare è ottima, peccato che il finale (come succede la maggior parte delle volte con Junji Ito) sia proprio buttato via. E l’ultima, quella del tornado che si innamora della protagonista, è del tutto trascurabile.

This is even creepier and more messed up than the first one but it's a bit disorganized plotwise, more like a collection of short stories.

I enjoyed/was super freaked out by the first few stories, specifically The Snail & The Jack-in-the-Box. But some of the stories towards the end didn't make this one as good as the first volume for me.

Junji Ito never fails to creep me out, his artstyle is so dark but somehow still makes you crave for more, love the fact that the chapters aren’t that long and the way that every chapter has its own short story is so beautiful. 🤍
