Llevaba tiempo esperando este anime porque me volví fan de Junji Ito por el anime anterior #JunjiItoCollection
Fue en octubre del 2022 cuando empece a ver esas historias de terror y quede enamorado.
#JunjiIto Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre.
Cuando ví que iba a salir un nuevo anime estaba impaciente por verlo, pocos spoilers, solo comentarios de lo que me parecieron los capítulos.
1. The Strange Hikizuri Siblings: The Seance
Ame demasiado al personaje de Kazuya.
2.The Story of the Mysterious Tunnel/Ice Cream Truck
Me dio tremendo escalofrío con la historia del túnel./Jamás imaginé que pasaría algo así con la historia del camión del los helados, es brillante.
3.The Hanging Balloons
El simple hecho de imaginar algo así me causó una especie de cringe con miedo, imaginar que se puede terminar así es terrible.
4.The Room with Four Walls/Where the Sandman Lives
Me identificó mucho con Soichi, es de mis personajes favoritos, personalmente yo sentiría claustrofobia. / ¿Como será el mundo al revés, el mundo de los sueños?
5.Intruder/The Long Hair in the Attic
¿Como será nuestro otro yo en la otra dimension?
/Este capítulo es muy bueno y espeluznante pensar que tu cabello cobre vida.
6.Mold/Library Vision
No sufro por el moho pero si tengo humedad en mi cuarto, y si bien me da asco el aroma no me imagino vivir en el moho. / Estar encerrado en tu mente es horrible.
7.Tomb Town
Más que darme miedo, me causó mucha tristeza el final.
8.Layers of Fear/The Thing that Drifted Ashore
Me daría un shock terrible que algo así ocurriera en la vida real y más la locura de esa madre por creer en la maldición. / No soy muy fan del océano pero realmente lleguense a imaginar la vida de las profundidades.
9.Tomie: Photo
Ella es muy linda sin importar su monstruosidad.
10.Unendurable Labyrinth/Bullied
También me volvería loco. /Me causó una impresión muy grande, este capítulo es muy cruel y enfermo.
11.The Back Alley/Headless Statue
No fue de mis favoritos ya que realmente esperaba ver a los fantasmas. / Me gustan las artes plasticas, sería hermoso y terrible que cobrarán vida.
12.Whispering Woman/Soichi's Beloved Pet
Realmente se hizo justicia. / Soichi es un idiota.

Reviewing all the stories in junji ito maniac because I can, fuck you :)
The strange hikizuri siblings - uhh okay. Not scary nothing even happened. Okay a guy was a jealous simp, little kids are just like that, some guy threw up bread dough ig, then a ghost stared at everyone for a while and dipped the end
The story of the mysterious tunnel - Jesus Christ that was pretty spooky what the hell. Lost my marbles when he assumed the drop was water, and the kid in the ceiling fucked me up with her voice (dub) and screams
Ice cream bus - im never eating ice cream again. Jokingly compared the driver to William afton fnaf in the beginning but he was somehow worse. The dad pushing the kid away jumpscared me, then horrified me, and I needed a break from the show
Hanging balloon - so absurd it was kinda funny. The nonlinear storytelling added a bit if spook as I slowly realized who was at the window but idk the concept was just funny to me. Also I was so happy someone finally showed up to a horror plot strapped until I saw the result. Sorry random Chad with a crossbow, wish you coulda helped…
Four x four walls - thought something horrific would happen outside and he wouldn’t hear it but it didn’t, thought soichi was famous for being scary but he wasnt, I think this was like a comic relief in episode form. No spook, kinda funny
The sandman’s lair - *laughs nervously* what the fuck. No clue what happened, why would you tape yourselves like that, let me see his dream form damnit, the nature of humanity is we reinvent homestuck etc
Intruder - these kids are based tbh. Balls of steel, don’t blame the redhead, just move on with their lives
Long hair in the attic - also based, i had wondered where her head had gone but i shoulda known by the title, that grinding sound pissed me off tho
Mold - thank. God. It was in black and white. I choose to believe its dust. Also idc about culture or taboo if your floor is coated in inches of ropes and pools of mold just wear your damn shoes. Jesus Christ
Library vision - this one felt like it was calling out all of my anxieties about losing the things and memories precious to me. Also 10/10 Sean chiplock that final recital of hell of thorns was incredible and spooky. Also what the fuck was the ending
Tomb town - im never driving again. Also just call the cops surely you get a reduced sentence for actually reporting the crime. Other than that not scary lol
Layers of terror - im never picking my skin again. god ALMIGHTY why did i bear witness to this. Fuck that mom bro she sucks. I was thinking about how the proportions of human anatomy change as you age and how a toddler with such short limbs and a thick torso could fit inside an adult but uh… then they answered my question. And then it got worse. Funnily enough the 2yo looked like a monster id design
The thing that drifted ashore - was this supposed to be scary…? Oh boy they turned into fish people and promptly fucked off good for them ig
Tomie • photo - wow what bitches lmfao. Idk why she has a face growing out of her scalp hut I didn’t need to see the removal process. Or how botched the removal process was. Based that the photographer just fuckin moved on. “Damnit the blood ruined my pictures :/“ incredible.
Unendurable labyrinth - probably woulda been scarier if they were lost for longer but to me it looked like they took five steps, found the brother, seven steps, “aaaah we’re lost,” two steps, “theyre looking at me!” then suddenly the mummies have eyes, fade to black. Cool
The bully - I was sooo ready for retribution, then I got reconciliation and got even happier, then it turned into child abuse and I wanted to kill a bitch
Alley - pfft idk if its based that she killed those kids or not but it was extra based that they got revenge on her lmao shoulda brought a ladder bro
Headless statue - Jesus fuck that’s gross. Stop it. Also smash the statues again it worked brilliantly earlier. Or maybe jump out a window idk
Whispering woman - mega based. The nervous girl gains support and confidence, the attendant is freed from her abusive friend, the abusive friend gets violently killed, its just wins all around
Soichi’s beloved pet - once again a comic relief episode but tbh it was pretty funny, soichi was a lot less hateable this time too!
