Synopsis

Souichi Tsujii, lover of all things wicked and occult, returns to do what he does best: casting mischief and curses on those around him. This time, he attempts to capitalize on his mystic powers, play his hand at popularity, pester his grandfather into building him a coffin, and as usual, torment his elder brother Kouchi. And like always, his shenanigans tend to backfire on him, though this time they may have a more lasting effect.

Souichi's a godawful brat but he's also quite the interesting character. He's got the whims of a kid and he's not the good guy, two things which aren't common for a Ito-sensei MC. I couldn't even really dislike him because he'd occasionally just be relatable.

In addition, he's a character we've already met in Voices In The Dark and New Voices In The Dark even though it was under.... different circumstances, let's leave it at that.

Again, Ito-sensei manages to mix comedy into his horror! Reading episodes of the lives of a family and classroom where there's this weirdo kid who really believes he can put curses ...

Souichi is a troubled brat of a kid who likes to curse and cause trouble for anyone who he dislikes. Enjoyable Junji Ito read. By far not one of his best, but definitely a classic. I enjoyed reading start to finish, was hoping for a longer series with a bit more development with characters and plot. Most characters who aren't Souichi are quite forgettable, but the arcs they explored were fairly unique and memorable enough to make this manga worth the read. If you're looking for a Junji Ito that is a bit more of everything (horror, arcs and characters) you are better off starting ...

This is mostly a continuation of the previous volume, with mostly the same cast. Souichi is involved for the first four chapters, while a new potentially recurring antagonist makes an appearance in the last two.

Story, 6: The premises were still good for this volume, but the overall execution didn't thrill me. There were a lot of unanswered questions (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I was left unsatisfied for most chapters). I appreciated that the overt occult from the previous volume was mostly abandoned in favor of ghosts or deteriorating psyches.

Art, 7: Solid as always. There were a few more ghastly-looking characters ...
