His name is Junji Ito Maniac: Japanese Tales of the Macabre and this same author presented it through a video. The latter lasts more than three minutes and that is how this mangaka talk about this new project.
For what it reveals, ito It will include a total of 20 stories, although that does not mean that it will have the same number of episodes. All because the length of their stories varies.
What this author does emphasize is that none of these stories have been previously adapted to animation. That is to say, that they are something very different from other anime based on them and that he made Studio Deen with meager results. The studio did not do a good job in that regard.
Though Junji Itō He commented that he had liked said 2018 anime, the fans were disappointed; this new animation Netflix could be very different.
East mangaka commented that the stories will come from the collection Itō Junji Kesssaku-shū, comprising 11 volumes. So there is a lot that can be harnessed to make this series. In the video that accompanies this note, he talked about three specific stories that will appear.
