Check out Drifting Classroom or any of his shorter one volume works.

Post by: cosmicblizzard on July 24, 2014, 07:27:19 PM: Yeah, just read all of Junji Ito's stuff. Kazuo Umezu as well since the guy is legitimately insane. Maybe look into Shintaro Kago as well, but his horror stuff is more about mindfucks and gore in general.

Some of Kago's artworks look legit cool, but I don't think I could stomach actually reading any of his mangas.

Too much piss and shit 8(

Well yeah, dude's a guro artist. The concepts are fucked up, but just something about his art makes it hard for me to get legit nauseous over. Maybe it's how the anatomy is detailed, or something.

Still, the guy is crazy talented when it comes to perspective and stuff. Abstraction completely blew my mind.

Title: Re: Any other Mangas similar to The Enigma of Amigara Fault or Uzumaki?
Post by: cosmicblizzard on July 24, 2014, 10:15:33 PM: Knowing him, that could be by Kago as well. If not, no idea.
