From the title, it can be guessed that this anime will feature various mystery stories written by the legendary mangaka Junji Ito. Instead of immediately bringing the horor in the first episode, this anime opens with a slightly comedic story about a boy who likes to curse his friends. Nevertheless, the distinct feel of his surreal horror story remains here. For you who can’t wait to enjoy Junji Ito’s signature horor style immediately, there is one more story that is “presented” towards the end of the episode.

Will this anime presents many legendary horror stories from the mangaka (such as The Enigma of Amigara Fault), or instead, presents less known ones like the first part of the premier episode? Let’s wait!
