The Tombs story itself is excellent and the rest of the collected stories was varied and interesting. It's a bunch of horrifying tales and so many of them are so weird in the best ways.

After reading Tomie, I was burnt out from the same premise happening over and over again, as well as the misogyny. This collection truly shook me out of that and I'm excited to check out more Junji Ito again.
