I am a HUGE fan of Ito Junji
so I decided to purchase some of his books over the summer +_+
I really wanted to buy 'Gyo', but couldn't find it anywhere...
so I just got the Entire Volume of 'Ito Junji's Museum of Terror'
which is a collection of many of his works
Plus 'Black Paradox', 'Uzumaki', 'Ito Junji's Cat Diary: Yon & Mu', 'Hellstar Remina', 'Mimino Kaidan' and 'Yami no Koe'.
So ..These were pretty much everything i read over the summer break lol
Out of all the Ito Junji's stories, I really really really loved 'Lovesick Dead' which was featured in the 10th volume of Museum of Terror.
I couldn't sleep properly after i read this x_x
It's a story based on Japanese urban legend, 'Crossroad oracle(?)'
(sorry about my bad translation..)
On a foggy day, a person stand at a corner of a crossroad, and ask a question about the future (relationship/career or whatever it is) to a random pedestrian that walks by.
The person's fate is decided upon the pedestrian's answer.
I'm hoping to purchase a individual edition of this one day +_+
Anyway, probably a lot of people already know of Ito Junji,
but if you're into horror manga and don't know about him, please check him out!!!
Such a weird thinker with amazing skill :)
<I have no idea how to translate his name(?)...>
