\"\"<\/a>The whole Itou Junji thing is kind of weird for me. I’ve never gotten<\/em> him, that’s fair to say. No idea why he’s considered to be a master of horror by many. The caveat is that a consensus exists that almost every effort to adapt his work into anime has been a disaster, so that might have something to do with it. I’ve tried Itou in manga form too a couple of times (including this series), though, and it still didn’t take. The side of me that hates being left out has always been rather irritated by all this.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Enter Uzumaki<\/em>, the new four-episode adaptation of one of Itou’s most famous works. It’s sort of a hybrid creation, commissioned by Cartoon Network for Adult Swim but produced at Production I.G. with a bunch of Americans in key staff positions. Also of note is that it’s directed by Nagahama Hiroshi, who’s yet another odd element for me. I think his work on everything Mushishi<\/em> is some of the finest in anime history, and I’ve literally never liked anything else he directed. A lot of it comes off as pretentious drivel, if I’m honest.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Here’s the question that keeps running through my mind watching Uzumaki<\/em>. Is this *supposed* to be funny? I always talk about how personal comedy is, it either works for you or it doesn’t. Oddly enough I think horror is a genre that has some of that too, except that when it doesn’t work for you it often comes off as unintentionally<\/em> funny. So this is really a meeting of those two syndromes for me. Am I getting humor I’m supposed to be getting, or laughing at something I’m supposed to find deadly serious? I can say with absolute Gods-honest truth that I have no idea which. But I can also say I found a lot of this episode really hilarious.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I also have to wonder (and I know from experience that I’m not alone in this) why the hell anyone stays in this jacked town<\/a>. Like, seriously – bug out for the dugout, people. Including Shuichi<\/a>, the protagonist, who literally asks why the hell anyone stays in Kurozou as he stays in Kurozou. He has family entanglements, it’s true, but even so. Normally I groan at the notion of middle-aged actors playing teens but Miki Shinichirou is still Miki Shinichirou and somehow this whole thing is so absurdist that it’s almost logical.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>There’s some genuinely creepy stuff here, okay. And some freak-out moments like Shuichi’s mom cutting off her fingertips<\/a> to get rid of the spirals. Mostly though I just found it to be incredibly silly, and both Nagahama’s direction and the overwrought acting style (not to mention the Svengoolie soundtrack) mesh with that. It is a handsome show at times with its monochrome palette and minimal animation, but Nagahama is doing a lot of showing off, as he tends to do. Before I decide whether I can go anywhere with Uzumaki<\/em> I have to figure out just how exactly I’m going to take it. And good luck with that.<\/p>\n
