The Junji Ito Collection looks so damned good!
Thank you for introducing me to a whole new body of work I was not familiar with... I'm loving the genuine creepy and unsettling look of all of this collection, really does feel like some proper horror tropes.

Just like bikini Sable and shirtless hot pants David, I need to remind everyone of horror rule 101... All sexy people must die... please avoid them at all costs.
Stay safe, frumpy shirts and long skirts... preferably with a cardigan.

I'm a huge Junji Ito fan, so I'm really happy to see some of his creations come into the fog (even if it is only as a collection of skins).
They all fit the Killers / Survivors that they've chosen to adapt really well. The only down side for me is that I wish they were for Killers that I actually play as. I can see why they chose to adapt The Spirit for Tomie, but she could have easily been a Dredge skin as well. And Black Bird would have been a really good fit for The Artist.
I guess I could try playing some Spirit games… I usually avoid playing Killers that I don't enjoy facing as Survivor, but this skin could tempt me over to the dark side.
TBH, I believe the only reason people hate facing Spirit is she always runs back to hook and tunnels hard, and there isn't a lot you can do if that's what she wants to do… if you don't do that she is kinda hard to play and I find her quite a bit of fun to face. 😁
Be the Spirit you'd want to face dude ^^
I’m no amine fan, but these outfits are awesome!!
@UndeddJester @tjt85 you probably know it already but highly recommend Nagai Yume (Long Dream) by Junji Ito!
My problem is more to do with my stubborn refusal to wear headphones when playing this game (or any game). I don't want all that screaming and all those exploding noises pumped into my ears, so I'm usually just left guessing where she is at a loop and most of the time I guess wrong.
I don't doubt she takes a lot of skill to play well, though.
I’ll be honest, it’s the spirit breathing sounds that really trigger me lol she just sounds sweaty lol
I have a nearly complete collection of his English language publications, including some of the older Dark Horse collections. Like I said, I'm a fan. Yeah, I would recommend that one too. But his best work (and the best introduction imho) is probably Uzumaki.
I genuinely think he's a genius.
he definitely is! Haha I’m not surprised you have good taste based on your sound forum comments as always :)
Fair play, you could consider Dried Cherry Blossom to make up for that? Might make her less annoying for you :D
Crud… that's another manga I've got to add to the list and shunt everything else down😭
I’ve wanted Tomie in dbd for ages! I’m so glad she’s finally here <3
Apart from the lack of Gyo & Uzumaki based cosmetic, this is the second best collab collection this game have had so far imo.
