I need to address, that i don't like horror. In movies, in games, in anime, i always found it uninteresting. And for me Uzumaki started as a very good mangа with a lot of wasted potential later on
Story 5/10
The story started surprisingly intuiting. It was holding the attention and you felt craving for more and more. But with each chapter it made me angrier and angrier with it's unlogikly and stupidly progression. Who in their right mind will see how people turn into spirals and die, how your hair starts killing you, how your pregnant cuisine is trying to drink your blood and kill you and stay at that place acting like nothing abnormal happens. And on the top of all, your loved one is advising you to leave as soon as possible, because all of this is not normal and you will stay at this town............ i just find it idiotic and unrealistic.
Art and Atmosphere 8/10
The art and the settings where very good. Probably the reason why i kept reading. It made you uncomfortable and tense. Jut the thing it was supposed to do.
Characters 6/10
All of the characters except Saitou and Kirie were tiny bit above okay. Kirie were dumb and naive, only her beauty saved her from being completely hateable. And Saitou was very good ans strongly developed character. He was saner that Kirie, despite the fact that he was going crazy.
