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. 🤍

It was pretty good, though I didn't enjoy it as much as the first one. About halfway through, it just started to feel like the author was trying to one-up himself in how ridiculous he could make certain events. I still found it gross, which I suppose is the point, but I thought there'd be more world-building behind it.
