Binged the entire thing today... oops

I didn't know what to expect but it's honestly fantastic, so true to the original illustrations while upping the scare factor (in my opinion) in a way that still images can't. Would highly recommend for any horror fans and especially Junji fans

Also, keep going past E1. I thought it might just be me but it seems like most people agree the story chosen for episode 1 is the weakest
