I give this ⭐⭐⭐ ½.
The Circus Is Here and The Window Next Door are both ⭐⭐⭐⭐. My favorite one being The Window Next Door.
Gravetown and The Bizarre Hikizuri Siblings are both ⭐⭐⭐ for me. The Hikizuri siblings are so unlikeable and the stories are not my cup of tea but they're still decent.

the average volume to be fair. The Circus Is Here had a really good premise, I usually love things that take place in circus' but this one was a miss. there was barely any background information and the events just seemed to continuously occur. I find The Hikizuri Siblings kind of annoying so those were also not for me but Gravetown and The Adjacent Window were both really good.

This is probably my favorite short story Junji Ito has ever written. Gives me chills just thinking about it

I really liked the concept behind Window Next Door but the rest was fairly boring really. As always I'm still enjoying the art, but the stories weren't executed very well.
