Enigma of Amigara Fault

My hand-drawn animation of Eisner Award-winning Japanese horror comic author Junji Ito’s iconic horror story. I was inspired to make this because of all of his works, this iconic story has not yet been animated. Animated on Adobe Animate, backgrounds painted in Photoshop. Animated over a week in late February 2021, debuted online March 6, 2021.

The author’s original panels, which have become viral meme content.

Retweeted by Junji Ito himself, though he later deleted the tweet for unknown reasons!

The attention on my animation brought by Mr. Ito’s retweet brought about coverage from horror pop culture publication “Bloody Disgusting,” and online delight from fans of the horror genre.
