Uzumaki junji ito manga6/6/2023 ![]() I was on my way to visit family in Albania, and the ride there from Pennsylvanian is always long and dull. I read one of his most popular works on an airplane a few summers ago. Even though his characters can be rather bland, transparent and unrelatable, his stores still offer refreshing tales of cosmic horror. In some of his other works, such as Hellstar Remina (2015) and The Enigma of Amigara Falls (2002), one cannot quite get a clear cut reason for why and how his stories play out. Ito seems to focus heavily on abstruse themes such as the dread of facing unexplainable and hopeless events. ![]() It was extremely absurd, but still had a certain charm to it, I definitely consider it one of the best chemical warfare/sea monster horror spin-off stories out there, although can’t say I know many anyway. ![]() The first story I read of his was Gyo (2002) during my sophomore year in high school. ![]() For me, I first got into his work, as most people might have, by reading some of his short stories that get mentioned on social media or used for aesthetic blogging purposes. Everyone has their own story on how they first heard of Ito. Junji Ito is a popular horror manga artist for very good reasons, his art adds something new and unique to the medium. ![]()
