Reread it for the third time and it actually doesn't seem that scary any more. I remember feeling heavily creeped out by all spiral patterns the first time I read it. Now not as much, but the art for sure is still pretty haunting.

Super weird, super creepy. Hit me as both obvious in some ways and yet waay more unsettling in others than I expected. Like x files with a spiral theme.

Bless you Junji Ito. Such beautiful art. Kirie is stunning. Was immediately pulled in by the compelling plot. My jaw was on floor in awe of the horror that is created when beautiful art and compelling plot combined. Not sure how this can possibly escalate but excited to move on to Volume 2.

This feels like a series of creepy short stories that converge into a nightmarish climax. The chilling imagery was unforgettable and I absolutely loved it.

Absolutely delicious. This was my first Ito Junji series, and I'm in love with his grotesqueness.
