Synopsis

Yuuma Azawa is a transfer student with an odd habit: he cannot stop apologizing. Taking pity on him, Keiko Arisu, his new classmate, insists he should stop, but all Yuuma responds with is a string of apologies. The bizarre encounters continue when Keiko notices a strange girl following her, eerily proclaiming that she wants to suck her brains out. Running in fear, Keiko jumps in a truck's way and ends up hospitalized.

Yuuma pays Keiko a visit in the hospital and confesses that the girl she met is his younger sister, Chizumi. Befriending Chizumi, Keiko discovers Yuuma's dark past: he once summoned the devil and became obsessed, profusely apologizing as a form of a wicked offering.

Still freaked out, Keiko returns to school; however, everyone’s brains terrifyingly melt out of their skulls—and according to Chizumi, it is Yuuma's apologies that caused it. Keiko manages to escape before meeting the same fate, but miseries and misfortune that would befall those around the demonic siblings seem like just the beginning.

The master of horror does not disappoint.

For me, this work by Junji Ito is one of the simplest, at least because of its premise and its horror. HOWEVER, it is still a work by Junji Ito and by that I mean that it has a very well-done touch of horror. I think the idea for this work is simple but its execution is what makes it so interesting to read. In my opinion, I have no criticisms about this work. It is just a simpler work by the author but at no point does it become boring or uninteresting. On the contrary, the suspense is ...

This was okay. A bit disappointing, but it was some silly fun. Junji Ito tends to have some amazing concepts, but unfortunately this is not one of them. This is essentially a collection of connected short stories, each with a similar premise, and all of the them ending the same way - with melting. The formula got tiresome quickly, but at least it was a fast read and the ending made it all worth it. Art wasn't as creative as Junji Ito normally is. Just lots of melting, and that's it. The characters were pretty memorable though, and now whenever someone apologizes profusely to me, ...

This story was terrible. The premise was uninspired, but I do see what inspired Junji Itou. People who apologize way too much are a nuisance. You have to wonder why they're apologizing for things that aren't even their fault. This is probably what lead to this plot bunny. As always, Junji Itou puts a twist on it. The problem is, the story just doesn't have much going for it. Guy apologizes and everyone melts. The end. That's all there is to the story. There were some interesting plot bunnies within the story, but it was ...
