posted on by Adriana Hazra
Muse India began streaming Junji Ito "Collection" — the television anime of manga by famed horror author Junji Ito — on YouTube on Friday.
The channel describes the anime:
From the master of horror, this anthology series focuses on Junji Ito's twisted stories. The first story introduces the curse-obsessed Souichi. Then, in the second story, a strange plague forces a couple to make a difficult decision about their child.
Muse Asia streamed the Junji Ito "Collection": Tomie OVA (original video anime) for Junji Ito "Collection" in India as a Halloween Special on October 31.
The anime premiered in January 2018 and ran for 12 episodes on television. The anime's home video release in Japan included the unaired Junji Ito "Collection": Tomie episodes based on Ito's Tomie manga in April and May 2018.
The original anime adapts stories from both the 11-volume Itō Junji Kessaku-shū (Junji Ito Masterpiece Collection) series and the Fragments of Horror book.
Shinobu Tagashira (Diabolik Lovers) directed the anime and served as the character designer at Studio DEEN. Kaoru Sawada (Diamond Daydreams) wrote the scripts. Hozumi Gōda (Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni Kai) served as sound director and Yuuki Hayashi (My Hero Academia) composed the music.
