Tomie was an alright read, though it felt dragged on. It got too repetitive, and some chapters could have been left out. The art was amazing though. ( )

easy to read (obvs). Cool story but wish they had interlinked a bit more. Pretty! ( )

This was an interesting one . . . I still have no clue what Tomie actually is, but Junji's storytelling was super intriguing and I couldn't put it down. ( I had to because of work.) I am not disappointed when I pick up Ito's manga.

The story is about Tomie who can seduce nearly any man, and drive them to the point where they murder her - so she can multiply. Intentionally or not; I don't know—still a must-read for any Junji Ito fans everywhere.

I wanted to rate this four stars due to unsolved questions about Tomie but I gave it 5 stars, because you can come up with your own conclusions or theories. ( )

Tomie was Junji Ito's debut work and certainly holds its own cemented place in his list of most famous publications. Definitely pick this one up if you are into femme-fatales and body horror. Haunting Original premise that is sure to impress horror lovers of all kinds- from the hard won to the more easygoing ones. ( )
