Junji Ito Collection Anime Review. Even though this isn't considered the first anime adaptation of his. This japanese mangaka, who went from being a dental technician to becoming one of the most recognized and unmatched horror authors.

Interestingly, the anime adaptation was criticised for falling short of the original works, partly due to an inability to replicate ito’s incredibly detailed art style, and partly due to a lack of atmosphere.
