5.0

A classic for horror fans and still one of my favorite Junji Ito stories to date. Having the entire collection in one book is especially worth it just to see the author perfect his style over the years, it's truly fascinating.

Tomie will always have a special, undying place in my heart... whether I like it or not :)

Repetitive and boring after three chapters. And as with much of Junji Ito's other works, the ending isn't satisfying, it's just there

An interesting read, I remember stumbling into this series when I was younger before I learned who Junji Ito was. Can't say it's my all time favorites, but I like watching how his art becomes progressively better with each story as time goes on. That's pretty cool to see

i started this last summer when i was trying to get back into reading. for a while i was really into this, but eventually i found the stories felt pretty repetitive so i abandoned the book for over a year. but now i’ve finally finished it! the art is incredible and i’m looking forward to getting into more of junji’s work
