When it comes to animated adaptations of Junji Ito's manga, they have consistently failed to capture the haunting essence of his original stories.
The first episode of the 'Uzumaki' anime brought high expectations, showcasing an unsettling aesthetic that hinted at a promising adaptation of Ito's renowned work.
However, the second episode fell short, criticized for stiff character movements and nonsensical cuts, revealing a concerning lack of care from the animators.
Frustration with the adaptation led to the contemplation of abandoning the remaining episodes altogether, stressing how adaptations can detract from the enjoyment of the original manga.
