Time to dive into the spooky world of Junji Ito in Remina. I get a kick out of this manga looking back since seeing the movie Don't Look Up. Get ready for Fandom horror meets Cosmic Horror. A sort of Perfect Blue meets Don't Look Up. I love the worlds and art that Junji Ito makes and hope to go through all his manga. I'd love to even meet him if possible one day!

"Another of Junji Ito's classics, the sci-fi masterwork Remina tells the chilling tale of a hell star.

An unknown planet emerges from inside a wormhole, and its discoverer, Dr. Oguro, christens the body “Remina” after his own daughter. His finding is met with great fanfare, and Remina herself rises to fame. However, the object picks up speed as it moves along in its curious course, eliminating planets and stars one after another, until finally Earth itself faces extinction… Is the girl Remina the true cause of the catastrophe? A masterwork of horror from Junji Ito, unfolding on a universal scale."

"Junji Ito made his professional manga debut in 1987 and since then has gone on to be recognized as one of the greatest contemporary artists working in the horror genre. His titles include Tomie and Uzumaki, which have been adapted into live-action films; Gyo, which was adapted into an animated film; and his short story collections Fragments of Horror, Shiver and Frankenstein, all of which are available from VIZ Media. Ito’s influences include classic horror manga artists Kazuo Umezz and Hideshi Hino, as well as authors Yasutaka Tsutsui and H.P. Lovecraft."
