I just finished reading Junji Ito's UZUMAKI ! It was great, I read it after I read GYO so I'm happy they are so different lol. Who's a fan of his stories? Which style of his did you prefer?

@karai · ebi I also read Amigara Fault! It was included with another short story in the special edition of GYO! It really is very singular and uncomfortable, and leaves a lot to the imagination. Uzumaki spends most of its length being an anthology I guess, but the underlying plot reminds me the most of my favorite authors like Blackwood and Lovecraft! ("The Willows" jumped to mind, as well as "Under The Pyramids" and M. R. James "The Treasure of Abbot Thomas" in the last few chapters loll.)
@tetsu_sama69 Army Of One and Tomie look great they'll be next for me I think!
@-Tetsu-I'll have to get on the anime adaptations soon!

I think I'm gonna have to pick gyo as the better one, uzumaki is unsettling but I feel it goes on for too long and the whole spiral climax not worth the wait for me. I still enjoyed it though.
My favourite is the Yami no koe anthology because it features one of his scariest characters (that tall woman).
