3.5

2/33 for my 2022 TBR!
CW: body horror, gore, insects, parental death, child death, abuse, bullying, cannibalism (ish??)

Junji Ito never met a body he didn't want to horror.

Similarly to Tomie, I feel some kind of way about how so many of these adult men treat Kirie, who is a child. But on the other hand - visuals cannot be beat!
