I've known about Junji Ito for a while now but this is the first work of his that I've read, becaus that's what I do with the things I know I'll like, I put them off indefinitely. I'd say this is a pretty good point to start reading his works since it's definitely tamer than the rest while still being very entertaining.
soichi is SO annoying i love him☆
(i've been in a MAJOR slump for literally forever and i feel like this just saved me)

wasn’t really a fan of this i enjoy junji itos other stories because they leave me feeling just disgusted (in a good way) but this one had some horror elements but not enough for me to really like it or recommend it, only story i really enjoyed was about the cloth teachers because it had that creepy horror but otherwise it was just a story about a weird child, and that weird child was easy to defeat and not super scary overall
