It is also much less horror than I expected, far more just utilising horror and horror imagery to demonstrate mental illness/addiction and just horrible life choices.
The illustration was 11/10 as always with Junji Ito.

I've read the original book by Dazai and think it's fantastic. This seems like a very faithful yet additive adaptation. I plan on returning to reread and actually finish this sometime in the future.
