otakulys's manga / #ghosts(14)

Not my fave by this author, but definitely freaky. Some of those faces, dear lord. Even knowing they're coming, they still make me jump sometimes, haha. This one is more cohesive than previous stuff I've read by the mangaka. Less random snippets and more ongoing themes and connected stories. I'm not sure if I like it or not, but it's definitely interesting. We'll see what happens in volume three.

Very short, but a nice, creepy little snapshot. That face, man, lol. I hope it updates with more.

He has good ideas now and then, and sometimes I really wish he'd explore them more. Ultimately, his execution is just too clunky to be satisfying. He often either jumps around too much and too quickly, or he completely draws everything out for far too long. It's a shame, because he could do something really interesting with some of this, but it never really pans out.

So Itou didn't write this one, which explains why it isn't so jarring and clumsy, but the ending was still weak. I liked the creepy imagery of the people in the bath house though. That's such a freaky thought.
