| You can definitely tell a different studio was in charge of this episode, which was a shame because the animation wasn't as much of an accoutrement as last week's animation. |
| The animation took a massive nosedive in this episode. And this show got delayed to many times... |
| A significant downgrade from the first episode, with highly disappointing animation and pacing compared to the first episode. The lighthouse episode, one of the best arcs in the series, was completely wasted, rushed to a conclusion in two or three minutes at most. While the art remains great—no complaints there—it’s frustrating that I keep thinking, ‘this could have been done better’ as I watch. It’s unfortunate that such strong source material was ruined by the team directing the second episode. I really hope episode three doesn’t continue like this. I don’t want another Junji Ito Collection tragedy. Anyway, here are some great arts from EP2 to bright you up      |
| This was just weird lmao, I dont know what else to say. I am not sure yet if I like this or not but its disgusting for sure. Pacing again very fast but at least they stayed consistent. I didnt notice a drop in animation quality but I have boomer eyes so thats probably the reason why lol |
I don't understand why, they had so many years to do this... dropped๐ |
 |
| for now this is the best junji ito adaptation, the pace is horrible and i like more the storytelling on the manga, even tho the animation felt kinda bad it was good to see junji ito crazyness adaptated, i think they nailed that parts and representated very good, they nailed the snail and snake. Well thats about it, manga better but this isnt bad |
 |
| Haha, they ran out of money after one episode. Jesus Christ, that's depressing. 6 years btw. |

IzanaSolos said: Again with this dude that only shows up on rainy days, and ofc, this time around he's got himself a Uzumaki on his back... because ofc he does. Though, he's probably the least of our concerns for now, seeing as the dude only comes on, again, rainy days lmao. Our big concern right now though, HAS to be the fact that Kirie's hair is turning into Uzumaki's as well. Actually, scratch the whole idea of not having to be concerned about the dude that only shows up on rainy days, BECAUSE DUDE TURNED INTO A FUCKING SNAIL??? WHAT LMAOOO. And Kirie's hair ain't looking much better. It just keeps on getting worse with the days. Out of anyone this episode who got it the worst though has to be the dude that only shows up on rainy days. His parents seeing him was just so sad to see. No rest either because dude who won't leave Kirie dies in the MOST STUPIDEST FUCKING WAY EVER, THINKING HE A HERO AND LETTING THE CAR JUST RUN HIS ASS OVER... LIKE LOOK AT THIS BRO  The insanity doesn't even end there, because Kirie and other girl get into a Uzumaki off? WHAT LMAO? She won, for better or for worse, because at least Kirie got rid of her Uzumaki hair thanks to Shuuichi, but other girl... just yikes. Then they try to initiate the escape plan, and in a way, I guess it worked? Man this show is just.. I don't even know. And now instead of Uzumaki's appearing on people, now it's people running in Uzumaki's???? HUH???? Like what the HELL is going on anymore. Then we got the sensei turning into a snail as well...???? Something to do with the lighthouse apparently, hm actually scratch that, it HAS to be something with that lighthouse because that ain't no ordinary lighthouse. As if the stairs up being an Uzumaki itself wasn't bad enough, the lens is also an Uzumaki that is just a ticking time bomb thanks to the sun and all... AND EVERYONE'S DEAD..???? HUH???????? So many questions.. so many just piling on each other. I'm not sure what I'm even watching anymore. Episode looked pretty rough though, I know that much. Wonder who that dude that came out the grave at the end could be though. i think it's the Jumping Jack Boy that ended under the wheel before. |

| @20david09 He's a horror author, what you'd expect from him? A battle shonen? |
| Kinda sad that the animation is all over the place in this episode |

| WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ANIMATION LMFAOOOOOOOO |

| This sent me straight up to read the manga from the beginning. I realized how bad of an adaptation this is. |
| When good anime goes bad... Guessing budget cuts and or brain drain happened? |
This episode looked beyond terrible, we can make a new term, "Uzumaki'd", to describe something worse than worst. |

| Tf was that animation? Turned into comedy there for a while. Though I will admit, the attention competition was kinda funny too by itself. Ending was cool though I am sure those children would disagree. |
 |
| bro the story is so good and so is the idea of the black and white but i cant get over that goofy ass running |

| @sadoldman The budget is set for the whole project. The issue was more of staff management, the studio and director from episode 1 are absent in this one. |
| Told ya, told ya..... it's Rushed as FUK |
| WISHED I COULD ALSO GET TRANSPORTED TO A WORLD FULL OF MAGIC And DUNGEONS, please take me there too if you could (โ โ โโ โฟโ โโ โ )โ โก |
