    • Spiral into Madness
Taking place in the small coastal town of Kurouzu-cho in Japan, Uzumaki mainly follows the characters Kirie Goshima and her boyfriend Shuichi Saito. Their town is a quiet place until some people begin acting crazy with a strange obsession over spirals. It is not long before these people's obsessions turn to complete madness until the spirals consume them and start to affect the entire town. This was the first Junji Ito work that I have ever read. I found that this book was quite enjoyable in several regards. The most notable part of this work is the art itself. I found that the artwork throughout was superb that is not only very detailed in everything, but also does a great job to tell this horror story. The characters are very expressive and distinct and the various settings and backgrounds are well detailed. The artwork really helped in the worldbuilding in this regard. This includes some of the more horror and fantastic elements of the story as people, and the town itself, descend into madness. I thought that the story was interesting as well. Ito is known for taking various inspirations from other authors such as the American writer H.P. Lovecraft. In Uzumaki, Ito constructs his own world of a Lovecraftian-type of horror. The premise of something like the shape of a spiral sounds difficult to take seriously at first glance, but Ito uses this premise excellently to tell his tale. It is an interesting take on how something so simple on its face can lead to some horrific consequences and the various twists and turns of the story as the reader discovers the extent of what is happening. My only criticism of this book would be that some of the chapters, especially the earlier ones, are a little too episodic without much continuity between them. It was a bit jarring, for example, to see Kirie go through some supernatural event in one chapter only to head off to school like very little is wrong in the next chapter. However, this is only a minor criticism that did not seriously affect my enjoyment of the story. I found this to be a fascinating read and I would recommend this to those that like horror stories. ... show more

    • Crazy, surreal horror that gets more extreme as it goes
Kurouzo-Cho is a normal town unlike every other until spirals can be seen everywhere in plants, ashes coming for a crematorium, whirlpools, whirlwinds, and even the topography of the town itself. Uzumaki is an anthology of stories about this town with two main characters that connect all of the stories: Kirie Goshima and Shuichi Saito. These two are teens that are going to the local high school and dating each other until Shuichi's father becomes obsessed with spirals. He collects every object he can that is spiral shaped or has spirals on it. His wife becomes concerned by his behavior as he only stares at his objects, forgoing work and anything else not spiral related. She throws all of his things away and he opts to find spirals within himself leading to his grotesque death when he crushed his entire body into an elongated spiral. When he is cremated, his ashes take a spiral shape and fall into Dragonfly Lake. Much like Tomie, the stories told have that seed of obsession throughout on a bigger and bigger scale as the book goes on. Each story is related in some way to something that has happened. An artist gets clay from Dragonfly Lake and becomes obsessed with his pottery that comes out of the kiln with bizarre spirals with a much sinister origin. Shuichi's mother fears spirals with as much furvor as her husband loved them, even removing them from her own body in hair, her fingerprints, and eventually inside her ear. Kirei herself becomes effected as her hair spirals, growing larger and larger, and attacking her when she tries to cut it. Classmates and others flock to her hair's mesmerizing power until another classmate vows to be more popular than her. Azami, a Tomie-esque girl, entrances anyone she sets her eyes on. When Shuichi rejects her, she becomes obsessed with him. A lighthouse with no power lights up again and hynotizes people to go to it. People start turning into giant snails. Spiral cursed mosquitoes bite pregnant women with monstrous, disgusting results plus even more stories. These stories have transformations, murder, mayhem, and, beneath it all, a town that largely ignores every instance and goes back to some semblance of normal. During the last few stories, the curse of spirals amps up to completely isolate and change Kurouzo-Cho. The spiral curse is simply too big to ignore at this point since life has completely changed for its inhabitants and anyone unlucky enough to fight their way there. Six hurricanes (of course as giant spiral storms) surround the city along with deadly whirlpools in the ocean, keeping rescue away and keeping people from leaving. Inside the city, any sound above a whisper creates a twister that will tear through the city. Some people use this power liberally as a weapon while others prefer to live as peacefully as they can. As a result, the enture city is in shambles with the only true shelter being old row houses that were deemed as slums in more normal times. The row houses are rebuilt, but the curse doesn't spare them even where the whirlwinds can't enter. If people move too slow, they turn into giant snails, a source of food for the starving and less morally burdened. I didn't know how a story at this scale could end, much like Gyo kind of had a non-ending, but it eventually settles down until the next cycle (or spiral) who knows how many years later. Through all of this, Kirei goes about her life as normally as she can while Shuichi becomes a sullen, justifiably antisocial harbinger of the harm these spirals can do. However, they still remain in Kurouzo-Cho for no reason. In Tomie, the title character is the connective tissue for the stories, but this one doesn't quite work for me. If any normal person had seen a fraction of what they have, why would anyone stay in that one city? It's stated early that none of the surrounding cities are affected so they would have been safe if they moved even one town over. The only other thing I have a problem with is Ito's habit of characterizing the majority of the young women in his stories as completely vain and obsessed with popularity. It's a rehashing of the Tomie story which was proven to be much more than just a misogynistic stereotype. In these small moments, it seems more like that is the case and it's disappointing. Uzumaki is another successful horror anthology that serves up surrealistic horror, gut punching and grotesque surprises, and horrifically detailed art. Each story is more extreme than the last even when I think it can't go any further. While I see some storylines or concepts that Ito likes to return to, many of the stories are completely unique and go places I never expected horror to go. I especially enjoyed the Sunnydale vibe about the town that refuses to see what's really going on and eager to go back to normal as soon as possible. If you like Japanese horror films or Lovecraftian, surreal horror, I would highly recommend just about anything Junjo Ito produces. ... show more

    • Captivating
I read it in a matter of hours. The storyline and the graphics were good. I really enjoyed this piece of work. It was a horror story to me be it was a good read and escape from reality.

    • Blew me away (into the spiral)
I don’t think I’ve ever in my life finished the last page of a book and then immediately stood up, threw my head into my hands and said “wowwwwww my gawd” until just now after reading Uzumaki. If you’re on the fence, just read it. You’ll be amazed how quickly you become enthralled with the world and the characters. The ending, though, geez. I still have goosebumps. Good, great, fantastic. Why haven’t you bought it yet? ... show more

    • Wonderful Print Quality
Print quality of this edition was beautiful throughout all pages. The story was unsettling and creepy, which was exactly what I was hoping for. This was my first dive Junji Ito and I'm already planning to buy more from this author.
