Holy fucking shit.
I thought Junji Ito and Uzumaki were overrated shit. I heard about them all the fucking time, it was almost irritating hearing about them, but I'd never read anything of his before, so I read Uzumaki.
Fuck, that was awesome. Does /wsr/ have any recommendations of really great Junji Ito manga in particular? Is Uzumaki considered his best work or has he done better shit?

Long Dream from volume 14 of the 16 volume collection is my personal favorite.

That particular manga also has a Movie.
I think most people just like his unique art style. If your just into morbid Japanese art there is also Makoto Aida.

Things that over hyped can turn people off.

Still a better love story than Twilight

Most of his stuff is short stories instead of long arcs.
My favorites:
>Falling
>Hanging Baloons
>The Chill
>Undying Love
>Frankenstein
>the Enigma of Amigara Fault
>The Story of the Mysterious tunnel
If you want longer stuff then
>Black Paradox
>Gyo
>Hellstar Remina
>Tomie
But in the end I would recommend reading everything he has.

Oscar and Bosie is a better love story than Twilight.
