Another insanist story from Junji Ito that had me laughing out loud at the beginning because of how bizarre it was. The toxic (no pun intended) relationship was a good vehicle for this wild plot. 

CW: for suicide/suicide attempt.

extremely disturbing in such an interesting way and a very fitting art style but it lacked in depth so 4/10

3.0

The main story starts out laughably B horror, then midway through becomes unenjoyably gross. The ending could be satisfying if you liked the main characters and rooted for their relationship, but I found them profoundly unlikeable. The use of onomatopoeia is fun though and the art is compelling. The two short stories at the end are fantastic.
