Uzumaki: Volume 1 by Junji Ito

5.0

This is so chillingly deep, as how spirals infect population like the bubonic plague whilst it serves as a treat to the inner vices and an enormous attention devouring capacities of humans. It somehow portrays the evils of modern times by this "spiral obsessions", in a similar way as the ancient generations metaphorized despair, turmoil, and sufferings as demons or something outright evil.
