10th episode! We didn't plan anything extra for the occasion, but it is coincidentally our very first episode about a comic. So let's say that's how we are celebrating the milestone.

It brings me great joy to introduce the medium to Pleasant Evenings with none other than Junji Ito. His works practically need no introduction as it feels like Ito's name is already mentioned alongside the likes of Edgar Allen Poe, HP Lovecraft, and Stephen King in the pantheon of horror writers.

For the uninitiated and the super-fans alike, join us as we discuss what makes his stories so effective and the breadth of his imagination through his stories The Human Chair (adapted from an Edogawa Ranpo story), Fashion Model, and Long Dream.
