I enjoyed the last collection more; because it was a grab-bag or an anthology. I think that's a better way to read Junji Ito than to read a few hundred pages on the same concept (even tho he did vary the takes on it a lot.) The truly weird shit his brain conjures and the variety of it is way more engaging than pages of, oh she's pretty but now she has a bunch of weird heads. I think I'd have enjoyed the Tomie stories more if I'd read them sort of organically... Here and there between other Ito madness. The way I did it; (Read the entire manga in a day) felt repetitious. But as I say that's because I bought a trade. Stories themselves are fine.

I bought a manga! For about the second time in ten years or so. An acquaintance persuaded me to buy the Junji Ito "Tomie" collection. I'd read the "Shiver" collection previously, recognizing the author/artist's name based on having read the Enigma of Arigama Fault when it was a meme. Going to try to have it read by Monday.
