    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 14 Ch. 1 - Long Dream

    Probably the best Itou story. At the very least, the idea behind it is.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 13 Ch. 5 - The Bizarre Hikizuri Siblings- Seance

    A second chapter with the Hikizuri Siblings. Maybe Itou wanted to make them a series like Souichi? Well, I like them better, so it wouldn't have been so bad. Still, this one is way less fun to read than the first one. We learn more about the siblings, but sans the younger one, they are just not...

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 13 Ch. 4 - The Bizarre Hikizuri Siblings - Second Daughter's Lover

    This dysfunctional Adam's family is what Souichi wishes he was. Black comedy, funny when it wants to be funny and creepy when it was to be creepy. Actually, both at the same time, most of the time. The page were they all pop from furniture is awesome.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 13 Ch. 3 - The Adjacent Window

    Short and simple, but effective. The last page always gets me.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 13 Ch. 2 - Gravetown

    Love the plot, it gives us some really nice imagery. It could be shorter though.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 13 Ch. 1 - The Circus is here

    The perfect amount of funny and creepy to make it one of Itou's great stories. I have to say though, guys in this universe are really dumb.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 12 Ch. 7 - In The Soil

    Short and simple but still powerful. Predictable ending but it doesn't matter much since the execution works just fine. Maybe could had done the "weird girl" a more interesting character. A nice volume. Honestly I don't think none of the stories is great, but they all manage to hold a certain...

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 12 Ch. 6 - Love as Scripted

    The narcissistic playboy got what he deserved. Nice and short. Some implications are kinda disturbing but overall a bit too mundane maybe?

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 12 Ch. 4 - Memory

    I like this one. Thought it was going to be another instance of ugly = bad in Itou, but the final twist, wow. Works really well as an horror story, the real monster being the cute MC. And the final page is poweful.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 12 Ch. 3 - Heart of a Father

    Kind of a weird one. It's interesting to read and the father backstory works well. But I'm not sure about the plot itself. And also it's too long.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 12 Ch. 2 - A Deserter in the House

    Awesome twist at the end. Not the most interesting execution though. And the final page should be more powerful than what we got. Alright overall.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 12 Ch. 1 - The Bully

    Very good one as the starting chapter of the volume. Maximum creepiness without any supernatural element.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 11 Ch. 5 - The Supernatural Transfer Student

    Another weird one. More quirky than creepy, but fun to read. Nice for a change of pace? Still, the laser part was outright ridiculous, and it's a tad too long overall. I think it's kind of a good volume. It starts off strong, and doesn't really get bad at any point. Not the most traditional one...

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 11 Ch. 4 - The Village of Sirens

    Kind of a weird one for Itou. Feels more like a Devilman-related oneshot than an Itou-like horror story. Maybe I just can't help but see summoning demons as something not scary at all? But anyways, unlike Sword of the Reanimator, this one is actually good, so the change of tone is welcome.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 11 Ch. 3 - Maptown

    Love this one. Nothing too flashy, but the weird atmosphere the town creates totally pays off in the cliffhanger ending.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 11 Ch. 2 - Near Miss!

    Alright chapter. It's a short and concise ghost story. Nothing too remarkable.

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 11 Ch. 1 - Town Without Streets

    One of the bests from Itou. The privacy centered obsession the family of the MC and the town without streets share is really well done, and disturbing in a refreshing way. The ending could be better though, and definitely not a fan of the way the first part of the story gets connected with the...

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 10 Ch. 7 - House of Puppets

    Great chapter, no wonders the volume takes its name. Puppets always creepy, and this chapter exploits them really well. Overall if I had to describe this volume I'd say is the silliest volume of the collection. Most or the plots are just silly, if not outright dumb. Not even Second Hand Record...

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 10 Ch. 6 - The Gift Bearer

    Another one I'm not sure if I like or dislike more. I admit it's kind of interesting to read, the story makes you want to know what happens next at least. On the other hand, though, the creepy part is mostly absent, since the wooden dolls moving just lacks impact and even the implications of...

    Itou Junji Kyoufu Manga Collection - Vol. 10 Ch. 5 - The Sleeping Room (Den of the Sleep Demon)

    I feel like I should like this one better but something is lacking. Happens a lot in this volume it seems. Even Second Hand Record, which I love, feels it could have been even better. And maybe that's my problem with this chapter as well. I really like the idea, but the execution is terribly...
