paracosm 's review for:
Uzumaki: Spiral Into Horror, Vol. 3
by Junji Ito
This was a pretty good ending for the series. It’s different from the first two in multiple ways. While they all revolve around a curse involving spirals that affect a small Japanese town, the first two volumes are more episodic. Each chapter focuses on a small paranormal occurrence that obtains some sort of resolution at the end. The third one is also somewhat like this, but has a heavier focus on the way the town descended into swirling chaos. It all feels like one event.
One thing that improved was Kirie, the protagonist. She still has the personality of a wet cardboard, but has more agency and actually does plot-relevant things. I don’t understand why the author insists on having people fall in love with her constantly when she is boring as hell. It had a slow start, but the last three chapters make up for it.
