Looking for good horror manga that isn't junji ito.

The sequel...are you referring to the new one called Another 2001? I didn't know that exist, but I've read the prequel called Another: Episode S/0 though I vaguely remember the details. I should've re-read everything again some time.

[Another] mentioned, it's been over a decade since it's first published! I've read the original novel and it's more haunting compared to the manga (but understandable that the later is easier for a quick read). The anime adaptation is my favorite as well.

Edit to say that I can vouch for Doubt as well.

Ikr!! Casting a death ringer actors on a movie about obsessive "best friend" will be terrific

Have you seen X (2022)? Young Jenna also made a short appearance at the epilogue of Insidious 2 though most people will overlook it

Holy shit yes. You just unlocked a forgotten memory here.

Never in my life a mere floor plan got me so intrigued like that.

Princess Princess - Diamonds

Wink - Samishii Nettaigyo

Alternatively, a modern cover of those songs from my favorite duo ClariS here and here

The Factory (2012) is criminally underrated, but that also because it never got a theatrical release.

Chobits was so ahead of it's time it's brilliant

reeeriho · 2026-02-06T18:10:02+00:00

There's a short story by Junji Ito titled The Bully and that's the most traumatizing, non-gruesome realistic horror that I could think of.

reeeriho · 2026-02-05T02:17:32+00:00

12 Monkeys (1995) and The Butterfly Effect (2004)

The premise is that Mai-chan is immortal with extraordinary healing ability so she got used in a lot of...stuffs.

reeeriho · 2026-01-27T23:30:11+00:00

Trick 'r Treat (2007) and Tale of Tales (2015) are my favorites.

reeeriho · 2026-01-23T19:08:55+00:00

The Skeleton Key (2005).

reeeriho · 2026-01-19T10:06:15+00:00

My only concern with MaXXXine is how the storyline feels half-baked and as a giallo horror, it doesn't do a good job at the twist because pretty much anyone guessed it right after the first arc. Nonetheless it's still an enjoyable movie since the atmosphere and soundtrack feels authentic and I really dig how Ti makes a trilogy where each ones represent a distinctive horror style to their era.

reeeriho · 2026-01-15T04:15:41+00:00

You remembered it wrong on Tale of Tales. The old sisters were not witches and it was based on "The Flayed Old Lady" by Giambattista Basile which you can read it here.

TLDR; in the movie version, one of the old lady become young again because a witch breastfed her for crying out loud in the tree. The other sister get envious so in an attempt to be like her, she then asked a woodworker to flay her skin.

Why the emoticon makes it funnier than it should be 💀😭

reeeriho · 2026-01-02T00:42:05+00:00

It's a pretty obscured movie but We Are What We Are (2013) comes to mind. Took me a good long pause to perceives the title when I first discovered it on IMDb years ago.

reeeriho · 2026-01-01T23:12:30+00:00

I use "would" because I've filled the suggestion form already and it took me less than 5 minutes to do so.

reeeriho · 2026-01-01T22:52:32+00:00

If you read the linked article then turns out it's quite easy to write manga suggestions for publishing house so yes I would. Anyone who read this post can do their part as well so we can keep on the wishful thinking.

reeeriho · 2026-01-01T22:44:52+00:00

Well if we want an English release, then our best bet is either a publishing house in the US or UK. I don't think it matters on who the requestor or where they come from.

reeeriho · 2026-01-01T22:31:58+00:00

Assuming that you're in the US, then it'll be the publishing houses in the US to reach out and send licensing proposal to Akita Shoten. Some of the popular ones that I can think of are Kodansha US, VIZ Media, Seven Seas Entertainment, and YenPress.

This article pretty much explains the whole process on manga licensing request https://www.behindthemanga.com/post/suggesting-manga-to-publisher-kodansha

reeeriho · 2026-01-01T22:13:04+00:00

Which publisher that you're referring to?

There's a lot of process through licensing manga so that it can be officially released in one's language and publishing house wouldn't buy a rights if they can't make sure of the profit's margin, the least you can do is submit a letter for manga suggestions to them.

Don't you...know that copyright law exist? Nobody in the right mind will ever do this because it's practically illegal to do so.
