Itou Junji Kyoufu Hakubutsukan 9: Oshikiri Idan & Frankenstein
the three stories covered in this entry are the last three stories in the Viz's Frankenstein anthology.
Fixed Face is a very short little horror story about a woman who is forgotten in a doctors office in devicre that keeps her head in place. It's a good concept and the story is fine but I think it could have been better. The other two stories are about Junji Ito and his dog. They're very short and are genuine and heartfelt but there's not much to them either. So overall there's not that much in these three chapters but it will take you about 5 minutes to read them so for the time spent they're fine. |

Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection 16: Frankenstein
the main frankenstein story and "a doll's hellish burial" are included in Viz's Frankenstein anthology.
Frankesntein: I've never read the original story, but I believe that this is a very faithful retelling of the story, moreso than most adaptations. The monster here is not particularly sympathetic. Junji's art is good and he does these longer stories better than you'd expect. It's very solid. 8/10 Doll's Hellish Burial: This is a very short and creepy and sort of nasty body horror story about children turning into dolls and then decaying. 8/10 Memories of a Real Shit: This is included in Lovesickness. It's a very short and stupid little story. Bu it's also a strangely memorable and weird. 8/10 |

Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection: Kubi Gensou
these stories are all included in Viz's Frankenstein Anthology and all have the same main character, a boy called Oshikiri who lives alone in a big mansion which contains portals to other dimensions. They don't form a complete plot arc and the quality varies from good to mediocre.
