The series will compile a multitude of some of Ito&#8217;s most horrific works \u2014 20 to be exact \u2014 and adapt them into anime. Ito confirmed that three of the stories in &#8220;Maniac&#8221; would be &#8220;Souichi,&#8221; &#8220;Tomie,&#8221; and one of my personal favorites, &#8220;The Hanging Balloons.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Yes, I am in therapy, why do you ask?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ito has yet to determine which of the &#8220;Souichi&#8221; and &#8220;Tomie&#8221; stories will be adapted, but there&#8217;s plenty of nightmare fuel to choose from.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-dnt=\"true\" align=\"center\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">from the horror master of manga comes a new anime series: JUNJI ITO&#8217;S MANIAC <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GeekedWeek?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#GeekedWeek<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2Yjco9okbM\">pic.twitter.com\/2Yjco9okbM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Netflix Geeked (@NetflixGeeked) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NetflixGeeked\/status\/1534682186275774465?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 8, 2022<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Don&#8217;t be fooled by his kind and pleasant demeanor, or the cheerful background noise \u2014 the work of Junji Ito is legitimately terrifying.

Ito&#8217;s surrealistic art style isn&#8217;t the easiest thing to recreate, but if he&#8217;s doing hype packages for Netflix, there&#8217;s a good chance the animation team has found a way to effectively bring his work to life.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Junji Ito&#8217;s Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre&#8221; is due to arrive sometime in 2023.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
