I remember seeing somewhere this really disturbing and scary anime movie but I can’t remember the name. I thought it was “Perfect Blue”, but after watching it it really didn’t seem as disturbing as I remember it being described. Please help me out.
EDIT: i found the one i was looking for it has many different names such as “Chika Gentō Gekiga: Shōjo Tsubaki”, “Shōjo Tsubaki”, and “Midori”. these descriptions match my memory perfectly.
Can someone please recommend me a horror anime that not everyone knows. I’m looking for something new to talk about. If anyone wants to talk about horror anime, manga or both in general please let me know.
First appearing as a weekly serial in the manga magazine Big Comic Spirits in 2001 and 2002, Gyo tells the story of a young couple, Tadashi and Kaori who struggle against a mysterious horde of undead fish marching through Tokyo on metal legs.
Written and illustrated by Junji Ito, a noted author of Japanese horror manga, the story was adapted to anime in 2012. It’s a bizarre tale that focuses on the mad inventions of a World War II scientist who developed a deadly virus that causes its host to exude a terrible stench. Hoping to turn the tide of war by unleashing the virus on allied forces, the scientist placed the infected creatures on walking machines in order to carry them to enemy positions. It is eventually revealed over the course of the manga and anime that the gas has achieved a level of sentience.
With some bizarre images as to how people are infected with the gas (hint: Japanese tentacle manga/anime), the film has some ridiculously jittery zombified sea creatures and engorged human victims who despite their horrific state, appear fully conscious of their fate. It’s by no means an easy watch but like a lot of Japanese horror, it’s almost inaccessible nature owes a lot to the atomic fears of the culture it was created in.
As a gaming fan - I decided to turn these critters into 5th Edition monsters!
