Zashiki Onna

Description

One night, mild-mannered college student Mori Hiroshi bumps into a woman visiting his next-door neighbour, Yamamoto. Abnormally tall and dirty-looking, the woman has long, straggly hair, wears a man's coat and carries shopping bags in both hands. But then, without warning, she abandons her dogged pursuit of Yamamoto and shifts her attentions to Hiroshi himself. Who is this woman, what is she after, and will Hiroshi ever be able to shake her off?

Not that creepy

by takitogr

Rating: 6.0 / 10.0

Early 90's horror manga with the main character looking like Sadako from 'The Ring'. A story that resembles a Japanese horror urban legend. Could have been much better. Not that deep. I don't claim to have understood it but then again no one else here seemed to have.

If you ask me it had only one creepy scene and it was at the hospital

Everything except the last chapter was superb.

Please trust me, just accept that the story ends on the second last chapter. Don't read the one after. It just sucks. Nothing makes sense. It's not even "crazy". Its just weird and uneventful.

Great horror

Props to this one for being one of the few horror manga that actually scared the shit out of me. It's incredibly creepy, unnerving and disturbing both in story and art. As a thriller is also very good and it has a solid story and characterization for a one volume manga.

the first chapter[maybe even the 2nd] was ok i guess
it built up pretty well
the rest failed
i did not think the woman looked very scary

and the ending was bad
not very scary.

Intense, thrilling, suspenseful but...

Intense, thrilling, suspenseful are some of the words I'd use to describe this. It's exciting and even very interesting to watch the main character's demise as he's entrapped in the delusions of the insane.

That "the woman" truly has no identity and looks at "him" as a prey and even a projection for her own desires and compulsions makes the story even more creepy and fascinating.

The letdown was the ending, though. After all that suspense and buildup, the story crashes down like a house of cards. Even if the identity of the stalker was never to be revealed, I felt the story could've ended in a less anti-climatic manner.

So creepy>.<;;;

The art was crappy.
But it did creep me out. So it's all good. XD.
Creepy>.>

Anyways, if you're looking for something to creep you out, you should try this manga.
Notice how many times the word "creepy" is mentioned in this comment. lol

Bummed out.

Man, when there were only seven chapters released, I obsessed about it. It was a cliffhanger worthy of being in a TOP 10. But seriously, the final chapters sucked ass.
The ending was alright, but ... bah.
