Any thoughts?

Cool. While I haven't read the manga, I think for that kind of shows using black and white palette of colours can make viewers soak more into the atmosphere and general mood of this kind of works of art.

Might be a good choice. Just in the virtue of being unusual, seems deliberate, giving a hope of director having "a plan." It's a good director, we should be fine. I'm digging it.

The trailers look gorgeous, monochromatic style really fits this atmosphere. Can't wait how it turns out!
Also, credit to the creators for bringing us something original. I love seeing different styles and types of animation, and this anime looks like something that could be worth watching even just for this aspect.

Oh damn, the director of Mushishi and Aku no Hana... He's the right person for adapting Junji Ito material for sure, imo

Good choice. Theres plenty of atmosphere to build with shades and music alone. The one thing Uzumaki manga lacks is atmosphere.

Black and white adaptation suits for horror anime. The music and backgrounds make it godly. It'd be cringe to see this coloured. You cant imagine it

Idk, I somewhat like it but I don't too, it doesn't look that good from the teaser too but I hope I'm wrong, too early to judge anyways.

Taking a wild guess that the reveal of what is underground will be in full colors(excluding the characters), aesthetic clashes always make me feel uneasy

Dude the style from that 5 second trailer looks so sicccckkkkkkk. I love Junji Ito and his work and I can't wait for him to have (hopefully!) an actually good adaptation of his stuff!

Great decision, and from the trailer it looks like things will look far better than the erm...other junji ito anime that came out a few years ago. I’ve got hopes for this, and it seems very promising. Wishing everyone the best of luck on the project, because at least visually, this anime will look gorgeous

probably a good choice, but then again, probably not for me since I rarely read a manga and I never understood what's happening in the story if I read a manga.

Like, I can't guess what color of the T'shirt the character's wearing or what color the hair is, since its black and white, and so on.. and if I can't cant figure it out, it will keep bothering me and making me not enjoying reading at all... Unless they show me the color front page art.

So. I dont know if I can enjoy the black and white style in this anime

I think it was the right choice, it adds to the ailienish atmosphere.

He is concerned with mastering space: solving problem of life in and under trees, mastering what tools he can, mastering social relations in the jockeying for power and status. Deprived of this drive to development and self-increase he devolves to pointless masturbation, in captivity, where he senses he is in owned space and therefore the futility of all his efforts and all his actions."

Are you all fucking stupid or something??? There's no way a Junji Ito manga can be well adapted into motion picture. Do you not remember that awful collection show with dogshit animation? Now, Production IG and Cartoon Network are gonna ruin another work I like after the disrespectful FLCL sequels. These people don't care about art. They only care about using your nostalgia to make money. Please buy the manga, do not support this garbage.

I think black and white would work better than a colored anime for uzumaki, but I could be wrong, either way i’ll still be hyped

Oh god. I don't know if I'll be able to watch this. I had a hard enough time getting through the manga since I get grossed out fairly easily and do not like body horror at all.
