Status Updates From Lovesickness

The rib women: 3/5 stars. I thought this was going to be the worst story I would ever read. Everyone said it was terrible. It wasn’t. It was fine. It was mediocre. The scares where on point, and the rib women makes a cool villain. It was fine. Not much else to say about it

The mansion of Phantom Pain 3.5/5 stars. It was okay. The ending was weird and ambiguous but just like Lovesickness, it was really atmospheric. I liked it fine. It was not the best but it was not the worst either.

The strange hikizuri siblings: the séance: 4/5 okay so I genuinely laughed quite a lot at this story. I like how the young daughter kept thinking that the mother would come out of the ectoplasm (she did not) and the fake séance was pretty funny. Anyway there’s not much to say about this one. On to the next one!

The strange hikizuri siblings: Narumi’s boyfriend 3/5 stars. Okay so this is basically Japanese Adam’s family, and it’s pretty funny. I got to say, Junji Ito really is leaning into the sucide theme here, with the daughter repeatedly saying she will kill herself with a box cutter. Anyway the scene where they make the boyfriend sleep with what he thinks is a dead boy but is actually a burned manikin was funny
