Still the best manga I’ve ever read. Years have passed, yet every chapter remains vivid and iconic in my mind.
I read Gyo and this within 28 hours and I need help xD
I found Gyo more “enjoyable” if that's a word you can use with art like this. But don't ask me which was more terrifying. I've never read or seen better horror, this is absolute madness. I don't think written word and my imagination can compare to this. Movies for some reason can't do it justice either. Manga/comic book is perfect for this and Ito is absolute madman. People compare him to Stephen King but that's not right. This is H.P. Lovecraft squared. King has never terrified me in this way. While he's a master of personal horror Ito is king (pun intended) of cosmic horror.
