Netflix surprised fans when horror mangaka Junji Ito appeared in their Geeked Week stream and revealed that they will be releasing a new anime adaptation of his works. Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre, will adapt twenty stories that Ito hand selected, including stories from Tomie. This is big news for fans of Ito’s work, as many would like to see their favorite stories animated. However, Ito fans are also pensive about the announcement. Junji Ito’s works have been animated before, but none have met the astronomical expectations. Some even insist that Ito's work simply cannot be adapted into an anime. His stories are masterpieces of manga, utilizing techniques that only comics can portray and containing an insane amount of artistic detail. In 2012, one of Ito’s most popular works, Gyo, received an animated film adaptation. Gyo takes the humorous idea of fish with legs to grotesque extremes as the ocean invades land and leads to humanity’s demise. Combining a fear of advanced technology with the many crimes committed during World War II, Gyo is a tale about humanity causing its own downfall. The film, however, is very different. Where the manga centers on a young couple, both of whom eventually are lost to the horror, the movie features a group of friends.

Uzumaki’s anime adaptation on Adult Swim has hit the ground floor running. For quite some time, many anime fans believed that adapting the works of Junji Ito to a point where a television series could live up to the mangaka’s art was a nigh impossible task. Luckily, Studio Drive’s latest spooky anime series has garnered quite a bit of attention as anime fans believe that they have found the ultimate horror anime. In exploring this creepy town cursed with a spiral obsession, now seems like the perfect time to explain why this Junji Ito adaptation has the makings of an anime classic with only one episode out in the wild. Videos by ComicBook.com To start, let’s dive into Uzumaki’s story. The story itself is a simple enough one as two high school lovebirds, Kirie and Shuichi, are learning that a curse has befallen their town, Kurouzu-cho. Rather than simply being stalked by a vengeful spirit or needing to ward off the advances of a hockey mask-wearing slasher, the pair are discovering that the curse appears in various unexpected and uncomfortable ways. Slug kids, spirals infesting a woman’s face, a man’s obsession leading to his own “twisted” demise, and many other arcs help sell Uzumaki as both an anthology-style series and a story with a haunting overture. Junji Ito has always been a master of putting to paper horror that cannot be understood and Adult Swim’s Uzumaki makes good on his artistic inclinations. Falling prey to the spiral in UzumakiWe Need Horror AnimeOne of the major tenets as to why Uzumaki will stand the test of time is that there simply aren’t enough examples of truly terrifying horror anime out there. Granted, some major anime franchises have their fair share of horrific elements, with series such as Jujutsu Kaisen, Bleach, Chainsaw
