rhamen's manga / #Itou junji(9)

it should be a universal truth that junji ito is one of the best figures in horror literature. his ability to establish something normal and normally not scary (spirals) into something so horrifying makes him an effective horror writer to me. this is one of those stories that you really like and constantly puts you on edge but would never pick it up again for the sake of sanity.

I've read almost all of Junji Ito's works and i can always say that he's an effective horror writer, some oneshots might be a miss for me but he never disappoints with full stories, gyo was scarier than uzumaki. Atleast for me ToT

junji ito is crazy for this one bcs it made me realize how the force of nature is hard to go against, like nature is not something you'd shoot bullets and missiles with and it would stop, it is far more stronger than all humans combined. all throughout the story i was on edge because they went all the way up outside the earth?? it's even more scary to me because it seems so true and accurate that when faced in life & death situation, a human's instinct is to survive for themselves. Junji Ito's really crazy for that. they survived but it's hard to think that at what cost, it ended ambiguously and we were left to think that they're gonna survive for atleast just a year. Junji Ito really proves that he is a mastermind in his filed bcs how can u even come up with this (?) he's so cool.
