Remina (Junji Ito) Review: Cosmic horror at its finest! - Spoiler-free review: Remina is a true cosmic horror in terms of tone and scale. It achieves a sense of impending dread while holding up a mirror to humanity and showing just how cruel we can be as a species when pushed to the brink. In this respect, Remina features two kinds of 'monsters' equally terrifying in their motivations and actions. The pacing of the narrative is perfect and escalates in a logarithmic fashion that keeps you hooked and unable to put the book down. Readers should be warned that they may experience existential dread and a few sleepless nights. It is difficult to find many faults with Remina but if I am pressed to find any, it would be in the way that some science fiction elements are presented. The story, out of necessity, takes place in the future and requires the use of particular tropes that Ito does not have much experience in portraying. The manner in which particular pieces of technology are illustrated or explained, indicates that Ito could have done a bit more research before starting this book. This is just a minor gripe and it does not detract from the overall narrative. Ito's style of art is well-suited to the subjects portrayed in Remina. He has perfectly captured horrific imagery at both the micro and macro scale in this book. There are numerous splash pages with illustrations that are utterly haunting but impossible to look away from. Determining where this book ranks among his previous works is difficult. Gyo will always be his best but I find Remina to compete very closely with Uzumaki for second place. An absolute recommendation for this book if you are an Ito fan. Because of its grand scale, I would say that this should be the 4th or 5th book you loan to a friend to get them into the works of Junji Ito. Review: SOMETIMES THE BEST OF TALES SIMPLY LEAVE YOU FLATTENED - I love the art of Junji Ito. I love his story-telling ability. The tale he undertakes here is compelling. It is also exhausting to me. I decided to let it wash over me without expectation or prejudice. I simply wanted to experience it; and, once I had, I felt drained. Maybe it's a little too accurate. The story is the improbable tale of a planet-eating planet named Remina named after the daughter of its discoverer, Dr. Ogura. The revelation to the public is met with awe and the doctor and his daughter, especially his daughter, are raised to the level of celebrity. Demure, Remina really doesn't want the limelight or all the perks that come with it. In short order, men are fighting over her. She definitely doesn't want that. She is quickly reduced from celebrity to a source of angst, a condition that only worsens when it is realized that the planet, Remina, is loose and eating other planets in our solar system. Mob mentality is central to the story and it is handled with grave acuity. Just as her celebrity had been thrust upon her, Remina and her father are irrationally blamed for "calling" the planet into our solar system. When it's obvious that it's heading toward the Earth, society collapses into homicidal chaos. Far from being the fought over focus of competing men, Remina quickly finds herself on the run from the insane mob. Separated by her father and dependent upon one reliable friend, she watches as her world disappears around her; and, as the planet named after her closes in on Earth, it seems most likely that the end is near. I will not spoil the story, but I will affirm that nothing particularly uplifting occurs and Remina's future, and the future of humanity, is left very much in doubt. Maybe, just maybe, this can be viewed as a commentary about public opinion and how easily swayed it can be in our time, but it simply left me in the deepest imaginable of depressions. It's a worthy tale, a masterpiece I suppose, but it's one you must approach with caution. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #11,225 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #5 in Science Fiction Manga (Books) #46 in Horror Manga (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (5,642) | | Dimensions | 5.75 x 0.9 x 8.25 inches | | ISBN-10 | 197471747X | | ISBN-13 | 978-1974717477 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Part of Series | Remina | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | December 15, 2020 | | Publisher | VIZ Media LLC | ## Images ![Remina (Junji Ito) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91CcnCmahCL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cosmic horror at its finest! *by S***N on February 2, 2022* Spoiler-free review: Remina is a true cosmic horror in terms of tone and scale.

I knew I was in trouble. So we went to his speaking engagement and the man is really brilliant (honestly I had no idea who he was prior to this) ... I felt bad for him because his hands are very badly gnarled because of years of drawing. But no one can take away the horror he inspires with everything he writes and draws. He creates horrors that give nightmares horrors ... the things he writes and draws is amazing and terrifying and beautiful at the same time. The stories are all enthralling and tell tales that will give you nightmares but you will soon realize that even your nightmares pale in comparison to the nightmares he is writing. It's truly awe inspiring to be honest. One day we will lose this horror genre master but for now, I recommend everyone buy his books and be both inspired and terrified. ## Frequently Bought Together - Remina (Junji Ito) - Gyo (2-in-1 Deluxe Edition) (Junji Ito) - Uzumaki (3-in-1 Deluxe Edition) (Junji Ito) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/184608835-remina-junji-ito](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/184608835-remina-junji-ito) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
