伊藤潤二恐怖マンガCollection
This collection gathers early horror stories by Junji Ito, beginning with the infamous Tomie. Tomie is a beautiful, immortal young woman whose very presence inspires obsessive love and violent madness in men, leading them to gruesome acts. Her tales of rebirth and revenge are self-contained yet thematically linked, exploring the depths of human obsession.
The anthology then moves beyond Tomie into standalone tales of gothic and psychological horror. Readers encounter a boy who delights in curses, a thief who steals faces, and ordinary people confronted by phenomena like flesh-colored horrors, hanging balloons, and a girl transforming into a slug. Each story isolates a mundane fear or desire and twists it into a chilling, surreal nightmare.
