i'm currently reading junji ito's uzumaki and can't stop thinking about how shuichi looks like dib membrane lol

this page is a good example, shuichi's overall vibes are very similar to dib's (especially the "nothing's unbelievable in this town" part)

✓ both fall into the only sane man trope (or as sane as they can be lmao)

✓ both know something's wrong with the place they live and the people they interact with

✓ both take action to stop the evils around them

anyway have this stupid edit i made

#i might be reaching #but it made my reading experience even more entertaining lol #junji ito #uzumaki #shuichi saito #dib membrane #invader zim

thoughts on uzumakis ending

so, the trailer for uzumaki that dropped a couple days ago finally kicked me into reading the last few chapters of the manga, something i had been putting off for a while, and my... the ending is fantastic. i really liked it.

spoilers for uzumaki if you havent read it. 

the ending is kind of beautiful. i am all for bittersweet endings, especially in horror. at times, it can feel like the creator is phoning it in when allowing the main protagonist/s to defeat the overwhelming odds and emerge victorious. 

uzumaki does not do this. they ostensibly win. let me explain.

kirie and shuichi traverse down into the depths of the dragonfly pond, discovering one of the most horrific things in the entire manga: (to me, anyway) several monoliths dedicated to the spiral, all interconnected, all breathing, all alive. they have caused all of this. they did all of this. they are directly confronted by what has made them both miserable for the past who even knows how long.

and its inescapable.

once they have reached the belly of this beast, there is no way back out. shuichi cant even move his legs anymore.

so what do you think they do? give up? no.

they show one final act of defiance.

they embrace each other. they show that despite everything theyve been through, despite everyone else being dead, despite their entire town being capsized, despite everything, they still love each other. 

down in this pit, time slows until it seems not to pass. so in this forever-moment they are stuck, embracing each other. utilizing the very thing that has tortured them so to immortalize their love for each other.

idk man, i think its kind of beautiful. i love it.

Kirie: *Rolls over while sleeping and knees Shuichi in the ribs*

Shuichi: Ow, Kirie! You kneed me!

Kirie, sleepily: Yeah, I do need you.

Shuichi, on the verge of tears: Ok

just finished Uzumaki, and I have to say it's a little surprising that people talk more about the girl with the spiral on her forehead and not the GAY SNAIL PEOPLE

#DO PEOPLE KNOW OF THE GAY SNAILS? #BEST PART OF THE BOOK #besides. egg galaxy #BUT BEST PART #kirie and azami are so britta and annie #but shuichi is NOT jeff #shuichi is the furthest thing from jeff #first of all he loves kirie like the ending was kind of beautiful #terrifying but beautiful #best power couple in anything horror related #Uzumaki spoilers #uzumaki #junji ito

beloved cats

[toothzome]

the best part about uzumkai is that shuuichi is just SO psychologically damaged in every scene and kirie is kinda like :) all the time it's an amazing way for the characters to interact with the horror around them but it's also so funny to me for literally no reason

Thinking about the bit at the start of Uzumaki chapter 12 where Kirie's like "y'know I've been thinking, if it weren't for you I would have died quite a while ago" while Shuichi sits there looking like
