Was this adaptation of Junji Ito’s masterpiece cursed by the spiral? In episode 326, join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they try to make sense of what happened, heap praise on a promising first episode, commiserate over a steep decline in quality, and try to put the whole thing into context in an industry where animators are overworked and underpaid. They finish by casting their votes on which was better: the manga or the anime!
