Remina

Today’s post is on Remina by Junji Ito.  It is 250 pages long and is published by Viz Media. The cover is an illustration of the planet Remina and frightened people. There is mild foul language, no sex, and violence in this book. The intended reader is someone who likes horror and cosmic horror stories. The story follows different characters closely. There Be Spoilers Ahead. 

From the back of the book-  I MET REMINA'S EYE.

An unknown planet emerges from inside a wormhole, and its discoverer, Dr. Oguro, christens the celestial body "Remina" after his own daughter. His finding is met with great fanfare, and Remina herself rises to fame. However, the planet picks up speed as it moves along in its curious orbit, eliminating planets and stars one after another until finally Earth itself faces extinction… Is the girl Remina the true cause of the catastrophe? A masterwork of horror from Junji Ito, unfolding on a universal scale.

THE PLANET NOTICED OUR EXISTENCE...

Review- Another masterpiece by Ito. A new planet is discovered at the end of the universe and is named after the finder's daughter, Remina. But the planet is seen to be moving across the universe and looks like it is coming for earth. People decide that the planet is being summoned by Remina and she wants to kill all life. Things get dark from there. Ito really gets into cosmic horror in this manga with an unstoppable hungry planet eating its way across the universe and coming for earth. Lots of action in this manga with not much in way of characters or character development. This one is all about the unstoppable horror coming for everyone. I enjoyed this manga and Ito is a master. 

I give this manga a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I bought this manga with my own money.
