This was a very weird and creepy story - standard Junji Ito - but I didn't feel like there was any payoff to the story.

I regret that I've only recently become acquainted with the mastery that is Junji Ito, but now that I've found him I'm so glad! His illustrations are gorgeous feats of horror and skill, and the stories themselves are genius.

"Remina" is a masterful story about a monstrous demon planet set on roaring through the galaxy destroying everything in its path. It was discovered by Remina's father on the day of her birth and named in her honor. Now it's on its way towards Earth and the citizens of Earth are convinced it's no coincidence and that the human Remina must be murdered along with her father in order for humanity to survive. This is only the basis for the fascinating horror that unfolds, from what happens to Earth when it's licked by a demon planet to what such a planet might look like on its surface.

I look forward to discovering all of Ito's mastery.
