The pregnant corpses that birth living children are devastatingly sad the true horror is in the behavior of the head of the household and the societal structure that encouraged that abuse. In Keepsake, only the firstborn, the heir, is truly alive - all the other children are conceived on dead women and they are perceived as monstrous parasites by the rest of the household. It also inspired Keepsake, where Ito takes the idea of men using women as mere vessels for their heirs and mixes it with necrophilia, a recurrent taboo. An Unearthly Love (1926), a woman finds out that her husband is in love with a porcelain doll, and it has a fairly classic structure. The anthology contains two Edogawa Ranpo adaptations. The brilliance of the cult is that it tries to crystallize, through killing and stitching, relationships that should be organic and flexible to be healthy. The climax of the story takes place during Coming of Age Day, a national holiday that honors all the young people that turned 20 that year, that end up transformed into naked ragdolls, a pile of discarded (but very social!) dead toys. This might be the perfect COVID-19 horror story (alongside The Licking Woman, a self-descriptive title if there ever was one), as it's about a shut-in hikikomori whose social anxiety saves him from a cult targeting anyone that's being social, killing the offenders, stripping them down and sewing them together. Billions Alone has some absolutely spectacular panels of massive amounts of people stitched together. Venus in the Blind Spot Hardcover Digital Actual prices may vary +232 This striking collection presents the most remarkable short works of Junji Ito’s career, featuring an adaptation of Rampo Edogawa’s classic horror story Human Chair and fan favorite The Enigma of Amigara Fault.
