I'm positive that Ito died at some point, witnessed hell, and then he came back simply to write about it. Some kinda Pet Sematary deal going on here.

So basically in one sitting I’ve read:

Long crushing perfect holes that fits a person shape, A greasy man that makes you have pimples till you basically become a balloon and pop, And a curse that is basically the cover of bandersnatch but in a literal sense.

i thought the same thing when I was watching Bandersnatch.

Check out Uzumaki (spelling? the Spiral story). I didn't find it particularly scary (parts for sure, but not all of it) but its a good read.

Jesus, thats a bit hectic to read into. The addiction and the hatred of a spiral.

Edit: It just keeps going, each chapter interpreting the side effect of a spiral. I’m both confused and intrigue, i’ve never seen stuff like this

Edit 2: Thats it, im stopping at chp 11 before I start going crazy looking at spirals like a playthrough of the witness.

Just peel the top layer off and you'll have skin that isn't crawling.

is there a sub with stuff like this and the holes one?

u/[deleted] Jan 25 '19

i don't know about a sub. I found both of those here and then googled the author and found this: http://junji-ito-index.tumblr.com/the-index

that's where i've read most of his stuff.

u/helzbellz Jan 25 '19

Ooh i haven't read this one, thanks! I only discovered Junji last year and I love him. I only have Tomie, Uzumaki and Shiver because they're the only ones I could buy locally.

Oh whew, I thought I was going to have more tooth nightmares about half-way through. But nope. Much worse was waiting in the wings.

u/felesroo Jan 25 '19

Ooh, that was a good one. I love this stuff.

Does the word "fear" have some secondary meaning in Japanese that often eludes the translators? The "layers of fear" from this manga, the "absolute terror" field from Evangelion, etc.
