Adult Swim is working with director Hiroshi Nagahama to bring to life an anime adaptation of Junji Ito’s classic horror manga Uzumaki. The anime adaptation will be a 4-episode miniseries meant to capture Ito’s distinct art style in black and white.
In the story, “Kurouzu-cho, a small fogbound town on the coast of Japan, is cursed. According to Shuichi Saito, the withdrawn boyfriend of teenager Kirie Goshima, their town is haunted not by a person or being but by a pattern: uzumaki, the spiral — the hypnotic secret shape of the world.”
Thanks to production delays and then the COVID-19 pandemic, the anime of Uzumaki has been delayed to October 2022. The team has been working hard though and Nagahama and Adult Swim have released a video with apologies and the first 35 seconds of the anime. It looks really cool!
Are you excited for this anime miniseries?
