Victoria's Secret Compartment: After returning from the other side for the first time, Baracchi coolly produces the first paradonite stone she retrieves from inside the chest of her robe and flips it to the spectators. Lighter and Softer: While still contain a lot of Ito's trademark, the story actually is much lighter on the scare and is more plot oriented. One of the things I enjoy about Ito’s stories is that outrageous statements like this make sense in context: “Kikuchi, who is he? This man with the stomach leading to another world.” Ito: Yes, there's a scene where body parts are attached together, so I think my experience was somewhat useful there. But what {my dental technician experience} really helped me the most was for the pens I use to draw manga, the tools of the trade. I learned techniques I could use to customize those tools, such as cutting and whittling down pens to make them shorter, cutting grooves into the base so they would be easier to hold, sanding them down to make them smooth and clean. That all came from the techniques I learned to shape and finish dentures.

Ito: Yes. The manga I was reading wasn't that scary. On the other hand, TV shows where they went into haunted houses or had a medium who could summon spirits, I thought those were scary. Interesting, but scary. I couldn't go to the bathroom by myself. Especially since the bathroom in my house was at the end of an underground tunnel. When they showed photos with ghostly apparitions on those shows, that was scary. I was scared by things that seemed real to me. As for manga, of course, some of it was scary but for the most part, I found it interesting and intriguing. I loved Kazuo Umezu's drawings. Strange creatures, the grotesque. They fascinated me, so I enjoyed reading his manga. But that bathroom was scary... Mad Oracle: After Dr. Suga chains poor Maruso to her bed, her psychic intuition goes into overdrive, and takes her sanity with it, until the tumor is removed from her brain.. Bait-and-Switch Character Intro: The first chapter introduces the quartet, and ends with the revelation that three of the four are fakes - Taburo is a doppelganger, Pii-tan is a robot, and Barrachi is a sentient reflection that escaped the mirror universe. The one actual human, Maruso, then encounters the real counterparts shortly after escaping. Oct 20 Final Fantasy XVI Producer Naoki Yoshida on the Game's Anime Influences and Design Philosophy Balloon Belly: When the jewels build up in Pii-tan's stomach faster than he can vomit them up, his stomach distends grotesquely, which is played for horror rather than laughs. Especially when he explodes.

As we reported earlier this year, Junji Ito is now celebrating 30 years since he made his debut with his first-ever published collection of illustrations in a handsome volume called Igyō Sekai 異形世界 (Grotesque World). A woman with a disfiguring birth mark covering one side of her face. She believed her reflection was coming to life and that this was foreshadowing that she would die. She has the spirit jewels valued and classified as a new kind of mineral, also putting them on sale under the name "Paradoxical Night." Ito: Yes, when I was very young, I watched Dracula or Frankenstein when they showed it on TV. I lived in the countryside where there were no movie theaters nearby, so I could only see movies on TV. In the 70s, when the occult boom began, I saw The Exorcist on TV as well. So, I watched many occult films, like Dario Argento's Suspiria, for example. Este manga tiene restricción de edad o algo? Es que madre mía, se juntan cuatro de internet para suicidarse. Para esto que no vengan los profesionales que vienen a los centros educativos ha dar diversas charlas sobre las redes sociales, el quedar con desconocidos y por supuesto el querer irse de la vida. Ya ves tú qué cada uno tiene un motivo para irse a cual más tonto... An attractive actor of whom Baracchi was a fan. She sent him one of the spirit jewels, which he wanted to share with his fans; unable to break the jewel apart, he fired at it with a gun, causing an explosion of energy which killed him and everyone present.

Me ha parecido asqueroso en diversas escenas, claro, es un manga de terror, pero una cosas es tener miedo y otra muy diferente asco. Es que haber visto a una cabra dar a luz es más agradable joder. Oct 28 NBA Star Rui Hachimura Gets Animated and Possibly Saves the World in New Crayon Shin-chan Episode Ben K: I understand. I'd like to change topics now to the anime series Ito Junji Collection. What is your impression of how it turned out? There are 6 chapters telling the story of four people who met to commit group suicide. However, their attempt lead to a bizarre turn of events that opened the door to the spirit world and all the disturbing phenomena it carries with it. A suicide pact amongst four people twists and warps into a bizarre and heavy-handed parable about humanity's greed and its self-destructive pursuit of energy sources. It's all a little dumb and a little dull though, with wooden and shallow characters whose terrible fates could barely stir a shrug in me.

Ito: There's an afterword, an explanation part at the end of the book where I talk about how I created each work in an interview format. I would be happy to see that translated. Hoist by His Own Petard: It is predicted by Maruso that Suga will at first be deemed as a revolutionary figure for discovering the uses for paradonite...only to then be shunned and tortured for leading humanity on a road to extiction. Ito: Hmm... This director was active in the 1970s. He's quite advanced in age now. Dario Argento, an Italian director famous for "Suspiria." I think he would film women very beautifully. Of course, this is just my own personal wish (laughs). Also, William Friedkin, director of "The Exorcist" series... He's also quite advanced in age... I don't know young directors very well. An interest in VR La historia no se parece a nada que haya leído con anterioridad y me ha dejado con ganas de leer más cosas de Junji Ito. La propuesta es interesante, el desarrollo sorprendente y en definitiva es un manga que he disfrutado mucho. Una de sus grandes ventajas es que se trata de un tomo único, porque últimamente las colecciones de manga me dan mucha pereza (algunas son interminables). r/junjiito is dedicated to legendary award-winning horror mangaka Junji Itō (伊藤潤二) and friends like Kazuo Umezz (楳図かずお), Hideshi Hino (日野日出志), and other horror mangaka.

Nobushi: Would you say that most of your works are based on experiences you had and information you learned in your childhood? reason to read Manga online is the huge amount of material that is available. When you go to a comic store or Nobushi: I was wondering about something. You say you began reading horror manga at 4 or 5. Kids that age scare very easily. But you were fine with it?Tengo que confesar que empecé a leer este manga con mucho escepticismo de que realmente me fuera a gustar. Lo único que había leído hasta ahora de Junji Ito había sido Uzumaki, y me pareció dificil que esta obra pudiera acercársele, por lo extraña y lo creativa que es. Es por eso que fue una muy grata sorpresa ver que otras obras de Ito pueden mantener su estilo y a la vez ser muy originales. Claro que mi miedo era un poco infundado, porque es obvio que un autor puede ser creativo de muchas formas, pero no soy muy fan del terror y quizá por eso mi mala predisposición. can save you. While there's nothing like actually holding a book in your hands, there's also no denying that the
