I like the use of many different Japanese scary characters, such as yōkai, yūrei and obake. I learned more about the different types of mythological horror characters in Japanese folklore. Personally, the stories were not scary as much as they are gross and grimy. Maybe my scare threshold is broken and numbed but even the drawings were not scary. I commend the details though, but there is no scare factor in them- nasty and grim, yes.
