I've read a little more than 1 volume of this series, and I have to say that the story is just really repetitive.

It's clear that the main character is quite pretty and she is considered a curse, but when the plot for each chapter seems to be the same, it makes me wonder what the point is.

Each chapter follows a similar pattern, and it starts to feel a bit monotonous.

If you're thinking about giving this series a try, perhaps you should aim to read it more for the creeps and the atmosphere it creates rather than for the plot.

The spooky elements might be enough to keep you engaged, even if the story itself doesn't offer much in terms of variety.

However, if you're someone who really enjoys a complex and engaging plot, this series might not be for you.

It's important to go into it with the right expectations and decide if the creepy factor is enough to make up for the lack of plot development.

Overall, while there are some aspects of this series that can be enjoyable, the repetitive plot is definitely a drawback.

Junji Ito is the kind of writer who constantly walks the fine line between extreme horror and outright ridiculousness.

I'm well aware that his work is freaky, and I also understand that it's often absurd. Therefore, when I delved into it, I didn't really anticipate being scared. However, there are indeed parts that are genuinely terrifying, written and drawn with a sense of timing that heightens the horror.

This guy truly knows what he's doing. He simply gets a bit carried away on occasion.

It's as if he has a unique ability to blend the two opposing elements in a way that keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. One moment, you might be laughing at the absurdity, and the next, you're filled with dread.

Junji Ito's works are a strange and captivating mix of horror and humor, making them a truly unique experience for those brave enough to explore.

The original text is "Muito bom", which means "very good" in Portuguese. Here is the expanded article:

Muito bom! This simple phrase holds a world of positive meaning. It can be used to express approval, satisfaction, or admiration. When we say "muito bom", we are highlighting the excellence or goodness of something or someone. It could refer to a delicious meal, a great performance, a kind gesture, or a wonderful experience. The phrase has the power to bring a smile to someone's face and make them feel valued and appreciated. Whether used in a casual conversation or a more formal setting, "muito bom" is a versatile and impactful expression that spreads joy and positivity.

Mas que história tão intrigante! Mas que arte tão impressionante?!?

Foi a minha estreia com Junji Ito e fiquei completamente cativado.

Estou no limbo entre as 3 e as 4 estrelas. Quando iniciei a leitura, quase me pareceu que não estava a perceber nada do que estava a ler. Isso me fez continuar a ler, a forçar a leitura, graças à minha incapacidade de desistir de livros. E foi uma boa escolha!

Ainda bem que o fiz pois ao início só pensava que assim que acabasse, não iria querer o segundo volume. Mas agora, que acabei, vou continuar a querer seguir a Tomie.

É um horror que, por ser um manga e as pranchas aparecerem a preto e branco, atenua de alguma maneira a visualização. Mas temos desde esquartejamentos a canibalismo. Sangue, muito sangue onde Tomie se regenera.

É um manga que foi preciso muita imaginação para criar. Não queria estar na cabeça de Junji Ito.

Sobrenatural, sangrento e com uma boa dose de obsessão, passando essa obsessão para o leitor, aqui jaz a mestria de Junji Ito.

Ah! Não tirem fotografias a Tomie para não se perder a magia da sua beleza misteriosa.

Tomie is truly an outstanding example of bizzarro horror. It is extremely weird and creepy! The concept of a girl who has the power to mesmerize every man who lays eyes on her to the extent that they desire to kill for her is fascinating. Moreover, the fact that no matter how many times she is murdered, she always returns, sometimes in multiple forms, adds to the intrigue. Each Tomie has a distinct personality, yet her objective is always to cause chaos and ultimately meet her own end.

The body horror in this is delightfully disturbing, making one's skin crawl. However, the only drawback of the story is that it lacks depth. The characters are rather flat, and Tomie's backstory is not fully developed. I had hoped that the stories would contain more mystery and less straightforward horror and gore. Although the depictions of it were truly magnificent, in the typical Junji Ito style.

All in all, it is a solid creepy read, but not an instant favorite as I had expected.

Chapter 1:

So, I'm truly creeped out by the astonishing fact that the students actually went as far as cutting her body into pieces. And not just any number of pieces, but a precise 42. Why on earth did they choose to do such a heinous thing? Like, seriously, bro, that's just completely fucked up. It's beyond comprehension how someone could have the stomach and the mindset to carry out such a gruesome act.

Chapters 2, 3 and 4:

Oh, come on already! I'm so sick and tired of all these secrets. What in the world happened to Yamazaki? It's driving me crazy not knowing. There are so many unanswered questions and it's making me constantly on edge, wondering what the truth really is.

Chapter 5:

So, it turns out that everyone is attracted to her and then for some strange reason, they wanted to kill her. You know, it's really strange because I could never in a million years imagine someone cutting up their supposed "love" into pieces out of love. It just doesn't make any sense. And to top it off, she's so fucking manipulative. She seems to have this power over people that makes them do these crazy things.

Chapter 6:

Tomie scares me. Really. There's just something about her that sends shivers down my spine. Maybe it's her beauty that hides something truly evil within. Or maybe it's the way she toys with people's emotions. Whatever it is, I can't help but feel a sense of dread whenever her name is mentioned.

**Original Article**: This is a short article. It needs to be expanded.

**Expanded Article**:
This is a rather short article.

It seems to lack the necessary details and elaboration.

In order to make it more comprehensive and engaging, it needs to be expanded.

We could add more examples, facts, or personal experiences to support the main ideas.

Perhaps we could also explore different perspectives or offer solutions to any problems mentioned.

By doing so, the article will become more valuable and interesting to the readers.

The first half of "Tomie," which is collected here, represents a rather early work of Junji Ito, yet it is highly effective. Ito's unique style of "unconnected, connected stories" is beginning to take shape in this installment. There is a mostly serialized narrative about the impossible resurrections of Tomie. It starts in a linear fashion but then branches out into increasingly unconnected areas. Although it may not be as impressive as his masterpieces like "Uzumaki" or "Gyo," Ito's work here, where he is essentially honing his skills, still offers quality horror. The details and the atmosphere he creates are enough to send shivers down the spine of the readers. Even in this early stage of his career, Ito shows his potential to become one of the most renowned horror manga artists. His ability to craft a story that keeps the readers on the edge of their seats is already evident in this work.

A classic and creepy story by Junji Ito truly stands out. The premise of worms, with the idea that everything gets consumed and becomes irrelevant beside Tomie, is both fascinating and disturbing. It makes one realize that sometimes in life, there is indeed that one thing that overshadows everything else and causes us to lose our perspective.

The graphics in this story are simply amazing. They add an extra layer of depth and horror to the already captivating narrative. Each image seems to come alive, drawing the reader further into the twisted world that Ito has created.

I am eagerly anticipating volume II. I can only imagine what new horrors and mind-bending concepts Ito will introduce. With his unique style and talent for storytelling, I have no doubt that the next volume will be just as thrilling and unforgettable as the first.

Overall, this is a must-read for fans of horror and anyone looking for a truly unique and engaging story.

Tomie, if only she were a world leader. I'm sure she would kill all the men and bring peace to the world.

It's a rather extreme and perhaps somewhat fantastical thought. Maybe Tomie feels that men have caused a lot of problems and conflicts in the world, and by eliminating them, she hopes to achieve a state of absolute peace. However, this idea忽略了the complexity of human nature and the fact that peace cannot be achieved simply by getting rid of one gender.

In reality, achieving world peace requires the joint efforts of all people, regardless of gender. We need to promote understanding, respect, and cooperation among different people and cultures. Only through peaceful means and dialogue can we resolve conflicts and build a more harmonious and peaceful world.

So, while Tomie's wish may seem radical, it also reflects her deep longing for peace. We should all share this longing and work together towards a more peaceful future.

In conclusion, although this article is currently quite basic, with some effort and creativity, it can be transformed into a much more substantial and engaging piece of writing.

I started reading it because I saw a fanart and it caught my attention a great deal. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it exceeded my expectations.

The first part is so engaging and fast-paced at the same time. Several things happen together until we really get into the story, and from there it just gets better. Moreover, it's easy to read.

I loved the illustrations. I think it was what I needed to see and read after quite some time without finding something that I liked so much besides my other current reading.

The combination of the interesting plot and the beautiful illustrations made this reading experience truly enjoyable. It kept me hooked from the beginning to the end, and I can't wait to see what else the author has in store for us.

I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good read that is both entertaining and easy to follow.
