That actually looks like a very interesting read. I love Japanese horror, I just do not follow it as closely as I should I guess.

As for my avatar, it's Jeff Goldblum; it matches my username. I chose this particular picture because it looks like this one:

All that is missing the fedora worn by Coleslaw Smithey.

I have a feeling Goldblum knows better than to wear a fedora.

Ah yeah, I remember seeing that avatar, the one with the bunch of people (Those would be the cannibal snail-people you speak of right?). Looking at what Google Images shows, I'm sure this could be more disturbing than some of the images of Berserk that I have seen.

Nope, those are what the townspeople inside the giant spiral building have turned into under the influence of the spiral. They kept telling the protagonists that they couldn't come inside, and this was why. The cannibal snail people are still at large.

It's a slow burn, it starts off with just weird poetic justice stories with a spiral motif, but the endgame is the most disturbing apocalypse of body horror I've ever seen, and I'm a big horror nerd. Junji Ito, the guy who wrote it, is a master. He's mostly known for Tomie but he's done way better stuff like Uzumaki, and The Enigma of Amigara Fault (which is shorter and less shocking than Uzumaki, but will haunt you long after you finish it). I highly recommend his stuff (I did name myself after it).

The Japanese are the only ones who can make a horror story about people turning into snails, and actually make it fucking horrifying
