Hello nerds, i humblyy request your assistance in this matter o7
Ive been looking to buy me some Junji Ito works for the shelf, the only one i currently have is Uzumaki, could you kidly provide upon me a list of which ones to purchase? Are there any of his works that are less appealing than the rest? Ive also read one of his shortstories and i really liked it as well, can they also be purchased in book format?
Or should one simply purchase them all?
Kind regards, a less nerdy nerd than some (but more nerdy nerd than others)

I'm not that well informed on the topic, but I do know that Viz Media has released a bunch of Ito's works. I have only read a couple of the story collections, but they have been great. So I can at least recommend those to you. Also, they aren't your typical manga booklets but rather hardcover books. Here's a link to VIZ where you can find them https://www.viz.com/read/manga/junji-ito/all
The one's titled "Junji Ito Story Collection" are the one's with short stories. I can't speak on his longer stories, but Tomie is pretty well known so I'd imagine it's quite good.

@Jahra When i said ive read Uzomaki, i maybe shouldve clarfied that i have that on my shelf already, so i am well versed in the fact that he releases in hardovers:D And that just makes it even more appealing to buy:> i love hard covers, and i personaly think more manga should make releases in the format. For example the big 3 etc.
Thanks for your words of wisdom myy good sir! o7
