As a first time contact with junji ito this is magnificent! I'm now reading the mangas since I became utterly obsessed with souichi thanks to this anime, so I hope this helps:)
Now I can see why some reviews of old readers are low. Meanwhile the anime can give you chills, or moments that you think "wow gross, that's scary" etc. you are not really scared but more interested. When you read Junji Ito's original art it gives you more creeps, a purest feeling of terror, in my opinion a kind of art that can't be animated to be as scary.

Don't worry!! you don't get as ... much as terror, but double of fun. The job they did animating Souichi's curses was really amazing, his character essence was at his highest version. The laughs, voice, animation... everything fitted perfectly, making shine the funny side of him that you can read on the manga but can't really feel... the same emotions I tried to explain before with the terror speech but viceversa.

You can see 2 different stories every chapter, so it's easier to watch and enjoy, the best overshadowing the less interesting ones. If you like creepy things you will absolutely love it!!
