This can involve depictions of natural landscapes, the idea of man vs. Ecocriticism is concerned with environmental issues and the way in which nature is represented in literature.
Disturbing visuals, mental illness, absurd events, and destructive jealousy are all themes in Ito’s works.Īlthough he might not have stated it directly, I feel that there is a common theme of ecocriticism across a few of Ito’s stories. A lot of Ito’s inspiration is either from his personal fears, dreams, or other horror writers such as Kazuo Umezu and H. The mangaka (manga author and artist) is perhaps most famous for his focus on body horror and cosmic horror, with extremely detailed and visceral illustrations to be found throughout his works. Junji Ito is one of the most successful horror writers/illustrators in Japan (and the world).
