Lovesickness

Junji Ito's illustrations are so distinctive and disturbing — I wonder if there's a specific influence or process behind this aesthetic.

The way the story explores love turned into madness feels more unsettling than the ghosts or monsters. How did the themes of obsession resonate with others?

Some parts felt slow and tense while others were abrupt, which made me think about how pacing influences fear and anticipation in horror comics.
