Haven't heard about it I was ready to say no but after checking its description seems to have the potential to be interesting.

Well, I'm wary of it, but I hope it turns out well (As horror in anime isn't done right 99% of the time)

fucking hell you didn't know Junji Ito even though you Already read many manga

I'm inclined to say you should probably check his manga as I think the anime will focusing more to the horror side rather than its 'campy' side which I think is Ito's strength and trademark in his stories.

I am but I'm afraid it will end up being like yami shibai later seasons. Already heard the first episode is the comedy one

Yup, totally gonna watch it. Junji Ito is the master of horror manga. Hope the anime turns out well.

Will be a challenge to bring the horror of Ito's drawing onto the screen in colour I think.

I am hoping we'll be getting several short stories that end on a high note, so they at least adapt the story/creepy factor right

I really do hope they don't mess it up, it's probably the only show I care about right now.

It is up there on top of my priority list alongside Devilman Crybaby, so yes, I am really looking forward to see it. I just hope it would turn out at the very least as 'alright' and worthy enough to invest my time to.

I'll watch it regardless but I hope it's really good. We need a good horror anime. I'll be satisfied if it's even just okay because the horror genre is so starved for entries.

I haven't read any Junji Ito manga but I plan to read Uzumaki someday. So, this will be my first exposure of him.

I've only read one manga by him which weirded me out more than it scared me. I'll still take that over most horror I've seen which is just "Oh look, blood" and I'm supposed to be disturbed.

I have read 3 manga of that guy (Uzumaki, Tomie and Hellstar Remina), I've systematically rated them 3/10 considering how bad they are.

Hope the anime will be similar. I'm preparing some pop-corn!

This gonna be great.

Well I'll watch it despite being mediocre or bad. It's different. Although I doubt Ito's work can translate well into anime.

I don't think it will capture the same sense of horror Junji's manga does. His particular artstyle is what makes his works so unique so I don't think the anime will be able to capture that.

I am guessing it in no way covers Spiral or Hellstar Remina.
