Black hole head... killer hair... SNAIL PEOPLE!

I don't know what's wrong with me... I man, the manga itself is both utterly horrifying and ends on a note of profound and utter hopelessness, but for all that I just can't seem to stop reading it.

Expirence the horror for yourself.

I'm reading it again even as I post this... Spirals creep me out a litte now...

it is scary, isn't it? i read the first chapter, got freaked out of my wits and then i went on to read the next several chapters without stopping. O.O I think the scariness is the compelling factor. >.

And, all the while there was that little voice inside your head going "Why the hell am I reading this, it's freaking me out?!" right? ^_^;

That's how it was for me, anyway.

*blink* Oh gawd, what the hell did I just read? :O

[ingriam]

You just read Uzumaki, apparently. ^_^; How far did you get?

All the way to the end, but I skipped a few chapters here and there and skimmed through a lot. This manga totally has some Lovecraftian imagery going on there (especially with the evil ruins with the non-Euclidean geometry).

Yeah, that's what I said, too. *shudder* There may not have been any Great Old Ones in evidence, but the ruins, and the other happenings in that little town all give it a terrifyingly Lovecraftian bent.
