Synopsis

In the light of day and in the dead of night, mysterious horrors await in the darkest shadows of every corner. They are unexplainable, inescapable, and undefeatable. Be prepared, or you may become their next victim.

Sit back in terror as traumatizing tales of unparalleled terror unfold. Tales, such as that of a cursed jade carving that opens holes all over its victims' bodies; deep nightmares that span decades; an attractive spirit at a misty crossroad that grants cursed advice; and a slug that grows inside a girl's mouth. Tread carefully, for the horrifying supernatural tales of the Itou Junji: Collection are not for the faint of heart.

[Written by MAL Rewrite]

Junji Ito Collection: A Glimpse into Grotesque Genius, with Room for Improvement

As a Junji Ito fan, I eagerly devoured the "Junji Ito Collection" anime, hoping for a chilling translation of his iconic horror manga. While it didn't quite reach the fever pitch of terror the source material conjures, it offered a glimpse into the unsettling brilliance of Ito's mind, leaving me both wanting more and appreciating the challenges of adapting his work.

A Symphony of Shadows (But Maybe Needs a Bass Boost)

One of Ito's greatest strengths is his mastery of black and white. The stark contrasts, the play of light and shadow, all weave a symphony ...

Being a massive fan of Junji Ito's manga, i'm terribly sad to be giving this adaptation such a low score. The same as for the more recent Netflix Maniac.

Horror is quite a peculiar genre, requiring a lot more suspension of disbelief than others and is usually much more effective the more it leaves to the imagination. Which is why it tends to work much better in prose, or graphic novels, where your mind has to fill in a lot more between each sentence or panel with your own personal terrors. This is true for all the greatest horror writers like Poe, Lovecraft, or Stephen King, ...
