Sato, Zenboku (August 12, 2000), Oshikiri (Horror), BigMaster, Omega Micott Inc., TV Asahi, archived from the original on May 7, 2021 , retrieved September 20, 2022 Fashion Model (from Souichi's Diary of Curses, 双一の呪い日記, Sōichi no Noroi no Nikki), a story about an oddly ominous fashion model. Kao Dorobou (The Face Burglar) - 2000 VHS or DVD | Request Details". Otsukai. Archived from the original on September 20, 2022 . Retrieved September 20, 2022. The Face Burglar is a doppleganger-focused tale, with a student being able to assume people's faces unconsciously. The Devil's Logic focuses on suicide, peer pressure, and how sometimes death can come from unexpected places. Love as Scripted, meanwhile, focuses on a man who breaks up with his girlfriends via videotapes, and his current girlfriend killing him when she discovers this.

Imagine every time you dream your dreams keep getting longer and a stage is reached when your dream become eternal ? BYEE , I am going what is this thinking? My personal fav till now! The Secret of the Haunted Mansion duology, featuring recoccuring antagonist Souichi Tsujii, wherein two kids find a literal haunted house. Collects: Blood-Bubble Bushes, Unendurable Labyrinth, The Reanimator's Sword, The Will, The Bridge, The Devil's Logic, and The Conversation Room Sensor is a longer story. It's otherwise known as The Succubus' Travel Journal/Travelogue, which might give readers an idea of what to expect. The story is connected by a psychic cult, a volcanic eruption, and eldritich angel hair that came from the stars. It centers around Kyouko Byakuya, a woman excavated from a 60-year entombment, and investigative journalist Wataru Tsuchiyado.Also included are brief commentary pieces for each story, along with notes and sketches. They add a little something to each as Ito illuminates how each story was conceived and I thought it was really interesting to see how he outlines his stories. Kurozu-cho, a small fogbound town on the coast of Japan, is cursed. According to Shuichi Saito, the withdrawn boyfriend of teenager Kirie Goshima, their town is haunted not by a person or being but by a pattern: uzumaki, the spiral, the hypnotic secret shape of the world. It manifests itself in small ways: seashells, ferns, whirlpools in water, whirlwinds in air. And in large ways: the spiral marks on people's bodies, the insane obsessions of Shuichi's father, the voice from the cochlea in your inner ear. As the madness spreads, the inhabitants of Kurozu-cho are pulled ever deeper, as if into a whirlpool from which there is no return... Me and my fear of dolls were chilling until Junji Ito created a short story about goddamn cooking oil that made my skin crawl. This man can do anything. If you’ve got trypophobia, be weary because this book will make you uncomfy. Funny enough, I’m afraid of dolls, and there was a puppet story in here that played perfectly into my fears. I loved it nonetheless! There are a lot of Junji Ito books. His longer horror stories – Tomie, Uzumaki, and Gyo – are each available as solo books. Then there’s his phenomenal adaptation of Frankenstein, which is perhaps the best adaptation of Shelley’s original novel that’s ever been made. Finally, there’s a wide selection of short stories. Junji Ito’s short stories do the best job of showcasing the diversity of horror in his ideas, his writing, and his art skills, and they can be found in collections: Shiver, Fragments of Horror, and Smashed, as well as featuring as bonus stories in the previously mentioned full-length books.

A cursed record that dooms its listeners. A mysterious jade carving that bestows a horrific disease on those who possess it. A monstrous fashion model. Ghostly blimps of the dead. A crazed puppeteer who turns his family into marionettes. A muse that drives painters mad. A man whose dreams distort time and, eventually, his body. A man determined to carry on his family’s lineage, no matter what. And a nightmarishly greasy house and the poor family the grease envelopes.Drawing Inspired by "Enigma of Amigara Fault" from Junji Ito | VIZ, archived from the original on April 23, 2021 , retrieved October 23, 2022 Collects: Bio House, Face Thief, Where the Sandman Lives, The Devil's Logic, The Long Hair in the Attic, Scripted Love, The Reanimator's Sword, A Father's Love, Unendurable Labyrinth, Village of the Siren, Bullied, and Deserter Shiver is one of Junji Ito’s better horror manga collections. Some of his stories are a bit weak, containing only a striking image or idea and a lot of fluff around it, but some are quite brilliant and unique. Ito’s stories are nothing i Kubo, Tomohiro (November 17, 2007), Tomie vs Tomie (Horror), Arcimboldo Y.K., Art Port, Asahi Sonorama, archived from the original on October 7, 2022 , retrieved October 7, 2022

It's notably lighter than other Junji Ito works, specifically because the protagonist survives her encounter with the various monsters. Tomie was adapted into a series of films, beginning in 1999. Several other works of Ito's have subsequently been adapted for film, television and videogaming: Collects: Tomie, Tomie Part 2: Morita Hospital, Basement, Photo, Kiss, Mansion, Revenge, Waterfall Basin, and Painter Painter (from Tomie), a story about a strange but beautiful woman named Tomie who wishes for an artist to accurately capture her beauty, and all the misfortune that happens as a result... Collects: The Woman Next Door, Sound of Grass, Graveman, The Seashore, Alone with You (a.k.a. Just the Two of Us), and The Scarlet Circle

Ito's work has developed a substantial cult following, [1] [2] and Ito has been called an iconic horror manga artist. [1] [3] [4] [5] His manga has been adapted to both film and anime television series, including the Tomie film series and both the Junji Ito Collection and Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre anime anthology series. Tomiewas Junji Ito’s first major work, originally published in Japan between 1987 and 2000. In 1989, he won the Kazuo Umezu Prize. Mimi's Tales of Terror (a.k.a. Mimi's Ghost Stories) (ミミの怪談) (collection of six one-shots, adapted from Hirokatsu Kihara and Ichiro Nakayama's Kaidan Shin Mimibukuro (怪談新耳袋)) In 1987, he submitted a short story to Monthly Halloween that won an honorable mention in the Kazuo Umezu Prize (with Umezu himself as one of the judges). [8] This story ran for 13 years and was later serialized as Tomie. [9] [10] Fashion Model” is about a gruesome, fanged, monstrous woman who somehow becomes a professional model, even though opening her mouth reveals rows of jagged (sometimes bloody) teeth.
