Uzumaki by Junji Ito

3.0

the story is told in a very dynamic way and it doesn't waste a lot of time developing the characters, I don't know if it's something common in this format because it's the second manga I've read, for example the character who narrates is a young woman whose father is a potter and has a mother and a younger brother, she studies in high school and her boyfriend goes to another school and they spend time at the train stop and that is almost all the information and perhaps no more is needed but this character goes through several events that should make him understand that nothing that happens in her town is normal and she goes from chapter to chapter seeing the progressive and not at all subtle decadence of the people and the town and on repeated occasions she herself rejects her boyfriend's theory about the curse of the place, that I find it incongruous with the character and it is something that I already realized at the end of the reading but it is still a good book to be scared for a few hours
