| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- Wow. This was really the only good chapter in the volume. Just read just about the whole volume today. It's been sitting in my Amazon purchases for too long, but I'm glad I didn't prioritize it. As a huge fan of Itou, I'm really disappointed in this series. Very, very repetitive, and focusing on such dull "monsters" was not creepy at all--just lame. |
| Are all chapters scanned and translated and if so where can i read them? ^^ |
| This was a very "Meh" read, some neat ideas and nice art hampered by bland one-note execution. |

| Bought this at a second hand store for cheap. Trying to bulk up my manga collection a tad. Not dissapointed, granted I've only read Uzumaki and viewed small short stories so I don't have a full grasp on Ito work but if anything the premise and result were more hilarious that scary or chilling by any means. Not a waste of time but surely not his best. |

But good to get a secondary recommendation for it. 👍` |

| Just finished this, and it wasn’t great... Absolutely not his best work by far, and the whole concept isn’t his best either. Like the guy summons a demon, and after meeting the demon he profusely apologizes to the demon and everyone he meets, causing their brains... to dissolve... and they die. What. The little plot device- Oops, I mean little sister character was pretty pointless and annoying. The “Meet Again” chapter wasn’t even a whole story! I found that one to be pretty stupid. Totally disappointing work from my favorite mangaka. |

Definitely a lot like his old classics. Aah, no translations yet? :) They’ll probably get translated soon, all the super fans who take the time to translate his manga seem to work quick! |

I have no idea if his adaptation of No Longer Human is being translated, and the other thing that released this month is just a collection of some old stories, it turns out. I own the first volume of No Longer Human, but I haven't read it yet. |
| Can't compliment the work, wasn't scary and it relies on gross elements for the horror part, it fails when it comes to describing the atmosphere. Bad very bad. |
 |
| This certainly wasn't one of Ito's best but I had a lot of fun reading this nonetheless~ A simple thing like saying sorry becoming deadly thanks to the devil is quite the unusual yet interesting concept. I also liked how the story's afterword made fun of the culture of public apologies and the attention it garners. |
 |
| Simply not Junji Ito level. A quick read so it's alright. |
| Not sure where the idea comes from exactly in its full depth, but interesting imagination to create a pheneomenom where "children come back to earth from where they were born" sinking into holes with lengthened torsos. 5/10. |
