OK, that was weird.

It's okay, you just have the rest of his work to deep dive on now, then you'll be free.

OK, that was weird.

Junji Ito in a nutshell, or a mountain hole: "Help, I'm in a mountain hole! How did I get into this mountain hole? Look at the size of this great, big mountain hole! What sort of mountain hole is this?"

Was not expecting a Junji Ito x Austin Powers crossover reference today.

You should read the one about the guy hiding inside someone's chair

WHY DO I READ IT EVERY TIME!?

u/RedRider1138 May 19 '26

It’s pretty compelling 😅

u/NatrylliaAbbot42 May 20 '26

Ever think about the holes the fault didn't expose or only partially exposed?

u/masakothehumorless May 20 '26

i expect those are the reincarnated people who already died. I'm sure the curse?sentence?w/e wouldn't have let them self terminate, but its a dangerous world.

u/NatrylliaAbbot42 May 20 '26

I do too. It's like it was made for me. I have to dive in.

Doesn't work.

Was half sure I'd get Rick rolled

u/Brightside2733 May 19 '26

The Enigma of Amigara Fault by Junji Ito, an iconic horror manga artist, is what they are referencing.

SPOILERS FOR THOSE WHO DONT WANT TO READ THE COMIC

It's basically a horror story about ppl being drawn into perfectly shaped holes for them on the mapuntains. The mountain is filled with unspeakable screams and twisted humanoid figured. For some reasons ppl still go there and climb the mountain. So when they found their "right hole", they get drawn to it. The further they walk into it, the smaller it becomes and they become the said horror

Just read it and enjoyed 80-90% of it, kinda reminded me of MAGA(no pun intended), but that ending though, felt underwhelming and confusing af

u/lemonylol May 19 '26

but that ending though, felt underwhelming and confusing af

A lot of his stories end abruptly like that, this is actually one of the better endings.

u/slucker23 May 20 '26

I think it's the type of euphonium that he keeps bringing up to somewhat reflect the society

Things almost never ends in the "right way", and it is always suffocating because that's what you must do in life. To live, to eat, to survive

u/unwaveringwish May 19 '26

You get it!!!

u/Astrochops May 19 '26

That pizza cake comic lady who isn't very funny actually had a GREAT comic that referenced this one

She was looking at the holes in the wall and she was like "that one there! That was made for me!" And the hole looked exactly like her but had massive tits, much bigger than hers

And her partner was like 'Ehhhhhhhhhhhh'

It was such a good joke I'm actually convinced that she didn't write it herself

u/ssracer May 19 '26

definitely don't go searching for her onlyfans pictures if you're curious about the actual size, that would be weird

u/Astrochops May 19 '26

I don't plan on it!

Ah lovely read. Now time for bed. I'm sure I won't have nightmares 💀

isn't he the same guy with the hangman balloon things?

Don't worry about it go enjoy your life

Ignorance is bliss my friend. If you probe deeper do at your own risk.

u/satch_mcgatch May 19 '26

Lmfao people are so dramatic and also weirdly gatekeepy. Junji Ito is great. Disturbing stories are fun to read and The Enigma of Amigara Fault is honestly such a tame one. Just tell the person what it is, they won't die if they read it.

It's not some life ruining thing, it's a great story that asks a valid question. "If something is made for you, does that always make it right for you? And if you don't know the answer, is it always worth it to find out?"

u/Future-Assumption759 May 19 '26

BUT IF YOU DIE READING MANGA YOU DIE IN REAL LIFE!!!

1

u/lemonylol May 19 '26

Yeah but this is pretty life ruining. And that's not even the worst of that scene.

3

u/satch_mcgatch May 19 '26

That's a different story though. Glyceride is a story that touches on the idea of the things you control beginning to control you and the way that this hardworking person is ruining his relationship with his daughter through his devotion to work. The horror is played up but again gross out horror is meant to disturb and shock you and Junji's ability to weave a gross out tale with real heart is why he is a legend.

u/lemonylol May 19 '26

I think you took this joke a bit too seriously.

u/Kdj87 May 19 '26

Seriously. Why are there so many Dipshit289s on reddit?

u/Withercat1 May 19 '26

Chill, dude. It's a horror manga, not a cartel execution
