So there is the shock by gore, but not shock by the narrative itself because there is not much to grab in terms of storytelling. I think that Junji Ito could reach the full potential with someone else's writing because he's definitely a master in his drawing, and he can match his f-up imagination with an artistic skill, there's just something missing to push the story to the finish line.

Besides, Shuichi had the right idea on page 14 of this 600+ page monstrosity. They should have left town the moment all that weird crap started happening, when they probably still could have. There was zero excuse for not getting the hell out after the thing with the kiln. Stay in a place like that, you deserve what you get.
