HOLY CRAP.
When I tell you I inhaled this book, I mean, literally INHALED.
Now I understand what the Junji Ito hype is all about because wow. the illustrations and the story just made me feel some type of way. It wasn't even terrifying, but definitely disturbing and it really creeps under your skin.
Just utterly disgusting. I only knew the “scary fish” pitch, but the imagery of bloated corpses with pipes up their asses scooting around on artificial legs was just... what the hell, Junji Ito.
Not to mention the circus. Oh glob, the circus.
The “whatthefuckness” alone is worth the read, but I wouldn't recommend reading it before a meal.
3.5 STARS!!!!
the art style was really cool and added a lot to the story.
i LOVED the bonus story “the enigma of amigara fault” at the end!!!! sooo good!!!
