Complicated
This was a weird one... I didn't like the Hikizuri siblings in their original stories, so unsurprisingly I didn't like this one either. The other stories had their moments. As is typical for Junji Ito, everything is very weird and escalates very fast in bizarre and unexpected ways. Pretty much what you'd expect from a Junji Ito collection. Not his best work, but probably not his worst either.
