You couldn't pay me to live there!! What's everyone thinking about this 👀 See my full uncut live reactions to the episodes over on Patreon www.patreon.com/BrandonReviews
The manga is 25 years old by the way, imagine how long others waited for this to get an anime, after so many rumors and cancellations 😂😂
It's like Jojo fans waiting for the David Productions JJBA adaptation.
now we wait for vagabound
I honestly love how they ordered the sequence of events here. I was thinking they would do it in chronological order same way as the manga, but instead they have each chapter cut up and intertwined with each other throughout. In the manga it feels like each chapter is its own isolated incident, but in the anime it feels like everything is spiraling out of control all at once and I think it was a smart decision to adapt it this way.
different mediums have different experiences and i can see why a manga would do that but for an anime the connecting all at once feels right
Personally I think it was a bad decision as they cut so much out to make the pacing of the story different like Azami, it comes across she just develops an obsession with shuichi in one day when there is actually a bit of time between when they first meet and when she confesses her love to him
After the anime was delayed a couple years ago I had to read the manga. Without going into spoilers, all I will say is I'm incredibly pleased with this first episode, with one small caveat. The entire production is top notch and looks and feels like Junji Ito's manga brought to life. The only concern I have is that it's four episodes. It will be more of a summary of the manga as opposed to a full adaptation. I highly recommend after seeing this to read it. It's only 19 chapters but leaves an impression on you. You'll see spirals everywhere after watching this.
Welcome to Junji Ito's world, Brandon :D
I was ok until the fingers… then I had to physically look away from the TV. The faithful visual style is perfect, what a great way to adapt this particular source material. It it ain’t broke don’t fix it😱
I watched the first episode with my mom and she said “in other horror shows there is a scary monster or vampires or something, but here it’s just humans” at the start of the episode. I don’t remember what she thought about it though.
I really like the animation, it is really disturbing. But I don’t like the pacing, they have overlayed 3 and half chapters into one episode. And the order of events are all over the place.
The dad swiss roll in that wooden container is one of the most disturbing things I'll ever see
The manga left staring in space. I was so disturbed at the ending. I dont even think I wanna re-experience it. I probably will though since its about 4 episodes.
Going colourless is very nice touch makes it more stand out and the expression more effective and makes your kin shiver watching it. Humans are way scarier then any monsters in fantasy.
There were plenty of moments that made me want to throw up, but I had to keep watching. It's so good
Ahh yes, the only thing that can fill the void within me after Dark Gathering
If this is how the first episode is, then it will truly spiral out of control with the next couple of ones
So happy for this adaptation so far. It has the proper tone, that really sells it for me.
Brandon, I have been waiting for this show for years.
I watched it air on Toonami on an actual television Saturday night.
You know what surprised me the most? They aired it in Japanese with subtitles.
I have never seen subbed anime on TV before. I don't know if that means anime is becoming really popular or what.
Also, my power went out from a hurricane on Friday morning. By Saturday afternoon, I accepted the fact that I was going to miss the premiere of the anime I had been waiting to see for YEARS. As I was outside at 7:15pm, flossing and brushing my teeth because it was too dark to see inside my house, I suddenly saw the kitchen light turn on. The power had returned. And I got to see my "Uzumaki" premier I had been waiting so long for.
the kitchen light coming back on like you're summoned in an episode of the twilight zone
@@AHBrandonReviews - It was just depressing, man. Going that entire day thinking that I was actually going to miss the thing I had been waiting for ever since I saw the preview for it on Cartoon Network YEARS ago. I had been waiting. And then a hurricane hits the day before. I was depressed all afternoon. But it worked out. Thank God.
Unfortunately Max has japanese and English Dub but they don't have subtitles they have closed caption so I'm stuck watch English Dub
@@kingsboro1 I recommend going on adult swim's website if you're not watching it on a TV. It is in Japanese with english subs and it's way better than Max. I also can't stand how Max only has closed captions since I would totally use it to watch anime if it was like any other streaming app
Words don’t express how messed up this was!
I watched this after midnight, in the dark, with headphones on, and body horror is a huge trigger for me... but I was more fascinated than frightened, both by the story and the overall production quality. I'm looking forward to the remaining episodes!
This anime was initially announced in 2019. And funny enough this is airing on Toonami. The OST and black and white enhances the horror. Also the messy and detailed style helps. It’s ironic how spirals are often associated with positive meanings in Japanese media so Junji Ito was basically thinking of making them scary here. And it works. The trailer mostly showed clips from this episode so I’ll be curious on what the other episodes will be on. It sort of feels like that girl is the cause. In regards to Ito, I also like Gyo and stories related to Tomie.
Loved everything about the esthetic of this show,it has potential to be the first anime to actually scare me instead of just being really creepy. But for maximum immersion I’ll watch the rest in one go in the middle of the night. It’s just 4 episodes anyway so I won’t have to wait long
Going in completely black & white set the horror mode perfectly. It really does feel like we’re watching an actual manga come to life.
This is going to be such a great show. .I absolutely love the animation style, looks rotoscoped. I'm all in for this ride.lets get it on
This was creepy af. I wasn't ready for this 😮
Seriously can't wait to watch this! 🎃
I was in disbelief at the cringe-indusing horror fest. Great timing for Halloween month. This is madness at best.
I’m so glad to see how well this one turned out compared to the last anime adaptation of Junji Ito’s works.
Both adaptations were incredibly mid. I'm very impressed with this show so far.
Was dicussing with friends that the medium of animations doesnt fit his story style well. Could say it was properly designed for Manga/Comic layout.
This is definitely the best adaptation of junji itos work yet. I still recommend the manga to anyone who hasn't read it but likes what they saw of the first episode because they had to cut it down so the pacing at the beginning is actually pretty quick compared to the manga. I do wish they kept a bit more of the beginning in because it really has you scratching your head as to wtf is going on
Embrace the spiral, brother.
"Fear of the unknown" is Junji Ito's specialty and this show embodies it perfectly, for this episode at least, but I have high hopes.
This is sick. Not only that we're getting such a well made Horror anime in a while. Its an adaptation of Junji Ito's work on top of that. Those are 2 big feats i dont think possible to accomplish but here we are
Junji really is Steven king of anime/manga. The episode had a creepy vibe to it, but when the mother began cutting herself, that is when it turned dark for me ... till the end ... DAMN!!!!! FREAKING LOVED THIS FIRST EPISODE!!!!! They really did the animation well, the ost, the vibes, all of it ... really creepy and uncomfortable ...
This was well worth the wait.
And I heard that the next episodes are 40 minutes long so my hype is through the roof! Watched it at 1:30 am with good headphones and no lights and it was better than expected! the Mocap + 3D animation and then 2D animation over it was such a good choice
The hospital scene with fingers and all.. was terrifying 💀
Ito-sensei sure puts the mind boggling effect into many of his stories😳He’s like Japan’s Stephen King with a H.P. Lovecraft twist😊
The best thing about juni ito's stule is that as you read/ watch it. You know that you're about to get something dark,scary, and grotesque BUT, you have to turn the page/ continue to watch .
holy sh*t that was screwed up Twilight zone. not into it and done with this.
cgi is a tad wonky and the pacing feels a little too fast. BUT it stays pretty faithful and has some pretty fun moments
6:34 same
I was wondering if you were going to do this one. Animation was amazingly well done.
Once you've entered, there's no going back.
they gonna find a demon fox and seal it inside their body
Hey, Hope you been doing good man its been a while. I haven't watched anime and your channel since April cuz I had to focus on other things and I had to come back since this season has some interesting anime coming back like Re Zero, Arifuerta, Bleach(It will be something else) and Blue Lock(My favourite arc) etc and my current favourite manga Dandadan will premiere (Can't wait for your weekly reviews oh boy ) so as per the usual i tend to watch as many first episodes as possible cuz I believe in hidden gems. I had considered reading the Uzumaki manga a long time ago but never got around to it so I decided to check out the anime and was like yeah I love the use of black and white making it like animated manga panels although I don't like 3d animation but I wasn't too thrown off, the later half of the episode was a try not to drop my phone contest l, the body horror was wild. If things somehow get worse than what I witnessed, I don't think I am ready jeez. What a way to come back xd.
Thanks homie!
After all the delays it finally came out.
Also when I was in the bathroom I looked at my floor and it was a single hair, and it was a spiral lmao
don't stare at them they will get ya!
Brandon are u watching the Talker anime
going to try it
Yeah I wasn’t a fan but I’m gonna watch all 4 eps
Thx for the heads up. I HATE horror and now i know what to avoid. ;-)
I already dropped it not because is is bad but unlike dark gathering this is pure horror and worst of all body horror the type of horror im afraid of the most
Given that i watch anime before going to bed and this airs on a sunday and i need to work on mondays im going to priorities my ability to sleep over a show that is going to make it very hard too fall asleep
gotta watch in the morning to wake you up LMAO
All of Juni Ito’s works are body horror
