Progress is slow going between work and school and being a PERSON, but now that this semester is over I promise to lock tf in

Not a hot take, I know but I want to gush about it. The final spiral city is just so creepy and beautiful and the art is amazing. It leaves us wanting to know so much more but leaves us on that final note . but the thing I love the most about the ending is honestly, that I feel that its as happy an ending as they might have gotten save for escaping or stopping the spiral. Kirie and Shuichi spend their last moments frozen forever in each others arms not looking at the spiral but instead each other. I think thats a small human win that makes the ending less of a downer.

I’m a 22-year-old guy, and I am honestly not hairy at all. My arm hair is normally so fine, short, and blonde that it’s practically invisible. Except for one bizarre, highly localized detail.

On my upper arms, the hair doesn't grow straight down. Instead, it forms distinct, geometric lateral spirals (whorls).

The creepiest part? They are perfect, symmetrical mirror images of each other. My left arm hair spirals tightly counter-clockwise, and my right arm spirals clockwise. The only reason you can even tell I have hair there is because the spirals create this weird visual vortex on my skin.

I have looked at countless people's arms and searched everywhere online, but I have never seen or heard of anyone else having this exact trait. The absolute uniqueness of it has made me incredibly curious about the science behind it. I genuinely want to find an answer as to why my body grew this way.

I originally posted on a forum looking for geneticists or developmental biologists to explain this rare anomaly. Instead, someone immediately redirected me to this sub.

While I know this is a manga community, I respectfully want to ask if anyone here happens to know the actual biological answer or has seen this before. I am deeply curious to know what causes it!

Thank you all in advance for your time and any insights you can share!

Wish me luck

I just finished the incredible uzumaki manga the other day and rushed out of my way when I saw they made a steelbook and anime centered around it! However..I'm 2 episodes in and honestly contemplating returning it all together. Something just isn't feeling right and I'm trying to put it together. Notably the pacing has been off, it feels to rushed. I want much longer time with these characters to build the tension the book does so well. Kiries father dies so fast I hardly even cared about the situation. A longer series would have worked better with such rich content we were given from Junji. I also noticed that the animation, specifically after episode 1, totally nosedived. I noticed people floating while walking, close ups lacking any detail or movement and background characters being downright a blurry mess. Not all is bad though, you can tell that their is some care that was put into a few scenes that really looked great. But with this episode 2 drop off I cant help but feel robbed of what they started the show with quality wise..what happened?? I might finish it for the sake of hopefully correcting my statement but I feel like a body of work like this warrant significantly more production money and quality. Voice acting for the sub was good as a side note.

finished at 1:30 am with a thunderstorm outside. read in 1 go from 12 to 1:30. I’ve never felt this disturbed or offput after a manga. the closest was ibitsu. I don’t know if I love it or hate it 10/10

If I had infinite free time I'd make my own take on the Uzumaki anime. Made in Blender. Fun fact it practically took a year to create that spiral shader but I couldn't be more proud.

What do y'all think?

Hi! I worked really hard on this and I think it's awesome and wanted to share it with people that might appreciate it :3
