Beautiful art from Junji Ito as always.
I don’t know how to explain it, but the dialogue in a lot of manga, including this one, feels stilted and campy. Not a big deal in most cases, but tree are times it doesn’t fit with the tone of this particular story. I chalk it up to something getting lost in translation.
Considering it’s supposedly autobiographical, simply said this is a sad tale. I’d never heard of the author until now and it has me curious to seek out Osamu Dazai/Shūji Tsushima’s works
