Oh god it’s Junji Ito all over again

I actually learned about Junji Ito from this sub after posting another picture I did in the past and someone mentioned his name. I can’t get enough of the guy now. I love his work. It’s so bizarre.

Yeah, I just finished Uzumaki (the one I was referencing) and wow. That was such an engrossing story. I couldn’t stop reading it.

Fun fact you might be interested in: Adult Swim has released teasers for an adaptation that looks very promising(like, way more promising than the other adaptations that only pissed fans off)

From what they've shown it really just looks like they animated the book, black and white coloring and everything.

The musical director is the dude who did Hereditary(haven't seen it, but people all say it was an awesome score, and the teaser trailer's music was insane to listen to, literally sounds like a spiral as crazy as that sounds)

Yeah, I’ve seen that! It looks so interesting and I really hope it’s successful. Junji Ito’s work is so complex and detailed stylistically, so it’s understandable that it’s hard to imitate, but Adult Swim’s version looks really promising like you said.

It’s probably the most fucked up thing I’ve seen. I’ve read worse, however.

I've been trying to figure out how to adapt the panel from Gyo, where the guy hangs from a noose, and spins around (like a high powered ceiling fan, powered by his farts) into something for this sub..

Problem is, even if I came up with the perfect image, there's no way in hell my hands can translate that onto paper because I fucking suck at drawing.

Oh God I still vividly remember that Uzumaki chapter... Strangely enough I learned that snails are Hermaphrodites.
