Scary or not?
>>
>>136040470

Nigga manga.

True horror is Spiral.
>>
>>136040470
He does know how to draw things that are disturbingly out of place.
>>
Been meaning to read some of his stuff, where do I start?
>>

>TFW Silent Hills will never be finished

>>136040470
I don't typically consider his work to be scary, they're incredibly unsettling and disturbing though
>>
>>136040470

Nah is just kind of gross
>>
>>136040606
The Black Paradox is amazing and is what I started with.
>>
Is mostly disturbing but not really scary. Ibitsu is the only manga that as scared me.
>>
>>136040470
Sometimes, but more or less the stories just creep you the fuck out.
>>
>>136040636
I will never not be salty about this.
>>
>>136040470
His stories cover a wide spectrum from "what the fuck did i just read" to "unsettling", "creepy", "disturbing" to "scary".
If you add Cat Diary then he covers comedy as well.

Someone post the fabulous page from Black Paradox
>>
would you guys a Tomie
>>
>>136042843
Does she multiply? Can I have more than one?
>>
His stories are more disturbing than straight up scary
>>
you can't mention true horror without naming Tite Kubo
>>
I think the best word to describe his word is grotesque. I like it.

I love Ito, but I never really got scared while reading any of his works, his stuff is more to the disturbing and gross side.
>>
>>136040636
>>136041831
There's a possiblitiy that it'll be made under another name, if Kojima Productions can get Guerrmo back on board
>>
>>136040470
More unsettling than scary tbqh. Don't get me wrong irl if I saw that I'd be fucking terrified.

But in the medium of horror monsters you can't understand have always been the most horrifying. When you can't say it looks like anything else; I think that is a good monster.

Del taco already said hed gladly work with kojima on any game. Its a matter of whether kojima wants to or not, they said the first kojima production game since becoming independent will be small scale.
>>
>>136040470
this is wat 80% of the good looking anons look like so yes very scary
>>
The one about the bully was incredibly weird.
>>
I'd say it's more disturbing than scary.
If something is scary it should make you feel paranoid afterwards. Scary is the reason people don't want to walk through the woods late at night.

This is closer to lovecraft type stuff. Horrors beyond our understanding. Still really bloody good, but it doesn't leave me scared of spirals in the same way a good ghost story would scare me off sleeping in an abandoned shack or whatever.

Just finished it, good read.
>>136043967
The one with the plastic suits?

Junji Ito adaption of Kagewani when?
>>
>>136043967
I think The Bully might be favorite, unlike alot of his works it had a really good ending.
>>
Not.
>>
>>136040470
Japanese "horror" is just wierd not scary just wierd
>>
>>136040470
He is one of the twoartists I have seen in my life that can provoke a physical reaction in my through his art.

The only other one was some dead italian guy who made me feel physically disgusted and I had to leave the exhibit. He art was really unsettling, and I couldn't put my finger on why. It was all normal pictures, just his art style was.....ugh.
>>
>>136042243
>what the fuck did i just read
>that one shot where the pervs are trying to sleep with dead people but the dead people are alive and pretending to be dead it was all a giant retarded benny hill esque sketch.
>>
Goddamn did I really hate Hellstar Remina.

Not like "this is really badly written," hate, but, "I am really uncomfortable with most of this and hate the characters that you want me to hate, so good show, Ito."

Goddamn that part where they land on Remina

But Gyo was genuinely retarded.

And fuck you Spiral. Hey, the reason all of this happens is RIGHT OVER THERE. Oh well, going to lie down and die right here.
>>
That's nice and all, but how about some story time?
>>
>>136040470
Has anybody here read Jacaranda? It's not Ito I would highly recommend it to his fans
>>
>>136040470
Not really, his manga are more of the grotesque kind, but they're not really scary. A lot of his works could also be seen as dark comedy, especially the souichi series.
>>
>>136048841
I would, but it is 1930 here and dark out. So I'd rather not.
>>
>>136048702
I dont remember that story

Some of his stories are unnerving or make me feel uncomfortable but some of them make me laugh my ass off

>mfw the story about the people living inside chairs
>>
Honestly it's pretty hard to do horror manga and I think he does pretty damn well despite the limitations
