Super dark story and characters. Never really disappointed at Junji Ito's work. The story makes me want to read the original book to see how close this adaptation is. I can already imagine that the original book is pretty deep and the artworks help with some of the concepts

I would not recommend reading this if you are actively struggling with feelings of hopelessness and suicidal ideations, symptoms of psychosis and extreme paranoia, or are sensitive to themes of sexual assault and rape.happycroissant's review against another edition

Although there was a lot of triggering things about this book and some horrifically graphic scenes, I still believe it is amazing.
It really makes you think about the characteristics of humanity and makes you question others and even yourself. It’s a broadening book with its interesting plot and sense of philosophy.

I don't have any problem with Ito's own perception of Dazai's work, like the extra scenes and stuff. The bit where Ito choose to
All in all, one thing that I really respect about Junji Ito is how truthful he visualized Dazai's work. You can see how he honored No Longer Human by making it alive through his drawing and his own style to make the story alive. Respect.
