You think Evangelion is apocalyptic? You think “Ghost Hound” was absurd? Gyo takes them, chews them into a fine cud, digests it in its four stomachs before it all explodes in a fit of bloody diarrhea. It has been announced that his apocalyptic series about legged fish invading Okinawa will be made into an anime. Now, I am looking into the maw of the beast. It was there I discovered the magic of “Uzumaki,” a few years later, I would win a DVD of Spiral at Bishonen Pictionary, only to be let down severely. I discovered Junji Ito as a young high schooler browsing Borders. Junji Ito is made of Maggots and offal and kitty-cats. Little boys are made of snips and snails and puppy-dog tails. Little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice.
